So, what would an ideal “Washington day” look like, anyway? Probably something like this…
- Begin your day with a very Washington breakfast.
Jennifer / Flickr Try some Snoqualmie Falls oatmeal, a hardboiled egg from Wilcox Family Farms, fruit from your local Farmers Market and a big cup of Starbucks coffee (or your favorite local brew).
- Take a drive down one of our scenic highways.
Ed Suominen / Flickr There are beautiful roads all over the state. Try Highway 124, Washington State Route 106 or the White Pass Scenic Byway, pictured here.
- Take a hike.
Michael Matti / Flickr Washington’s great outdoors are really, really great. Find a path, a trail or a hill and get moving.
- Have some iconic Washington snacks.
Matt Howry / Flickr Aplets and Cotlets, Almond Roca, Theo’s Chocolate and Tim’s Cascade Potato Chips are great picks.
- Visit one of our state’s natural wonders.

- Have a conversation about the Seahawks, the Mariners or (RIP) the Sonics.

- Enjoy a glass of wine from the Yakima Valley, Walla Walla or Red Mountain.
Jenny Ingram / Flickr If wine isn’t your thing, have a local beer. And if you don’t drink alcohol, try a Jones Soda.
- Have a delicious seafood dinner.
Mirandala / Flickr Grill up some Pacific Northwest salmon, steam some mussels or cook up some crab legs.
- Find a place with a view and watch the sunset.
