I’m Cassie, the magazine’s concierge. Tell me about a person, a place, a meal, a stretch of coast, or a story you only half remember, and I’ll point you to it.

The nickname “Cassie” for Portland’s legendary sea serpent was coined by Portland Monthly art director Nancy D. Sargent while laying out a story by cryptozoologist Loren Coleman in our May 1986 issue.

The concierge describes stories in its own words. Full stories are for subscribers.
