The 39th President of the United States was in Portland for a speaking engagement and book signing the day prior at Powell's Books on West Burnside.
On Southwest Stark Street the president was seen leaving Jake's Famous at 12:45 pm, where it can be assumed he had lunch at one of Portland's most notable restaurants for celebrity and politico sightings.
As the temps were inching up, the 91-year-old Carter looked calm and collected in a brown check jacket and maintained a determined gait as he walked down the street surrounded by a small entourage and without being recognized...except by GoLocalPDX of course.
