Alright folks, let me tell you about my little adventure at 3808 N Williams Ave, Portland, OR 97227. It wasn’t what I expected, but hey, that’s life, right?
So, I punched the address into my GPS, thinking I was headed to some cool new cafe or maybe a quirky little shop I’d seen online. The drive was pretty standard – you know, Portland traffic and all. Finally, I pull up to the address, and I’m like, “Huh?”

It’s a house. A pretty normal-looking house, actually. Not a cafe, not a shop, just a house. I double-check the address on my phone. Yep, 3808 N Williams Ave. Okay, maybe there’s something special about this house. I parked my car, got out, and took a good look around.
There was a garden in the front yard, a couple of rocking chairs on the porch, and a mailbox. Standard stuff. I wasn’t about to just knock on a random person’s door, so I did what any self-respecting person would do: I Googled it.
Turns out, 3808 N Williams Ave is… well, it’s just a house. A regular, lived-in house. No historical significance, no famous residents, nothing particularly exciting. I even tried looking at the property records online – still nothing.
I stood there for a minute, scratching my head. What the heck was I expecting? A secret portal to another dimension? A hidden underground speakeasy? I don’t know, but I definitely wasn’t expecting a normal house.
So, what did I do? I took a picture of the house, chuckled to myself, and decided to explore the rest of the neighborhood. North Williams is actually a pretty cool street. Lots of restaurants, bars, and shops. I ended up grabbing a burger at a nearby joint and people-watching for a while.
The moral of the story? Sometimes, you chase a lead and it takes you nowhere. But that’s okay! It’s all about the journey, right? Plus, I discovered a new burger place, so it wasn’t a total loss.

My takeaways:
- Always double-check your sources. I probably should have done a little more research before blindly following my GPS.
- Don’t be afraid to explore, even if your initial plan falls through. You never know what you might find.
- Sometimes, the most interesting things are the things you don’t expect.
So, yeah, that’s my 3808 N Williams Ave adventure. Not exactly a thrilling tale of discovery, but hey, it’s a story. And who knows, maybe someone reading this knows something about that house that I don’t. If you do, let me know in the comments!
