Tiki, Thai, Speakeasy and Sushi – One Evening In Seattle
One Night in Bangrak (Because I told her I was going to title it that) Update: since the original post, we have added to our Seattle list with another must-do tiki bar and a not quite nearby speakeasy…scroll to the bottom to read about them! After a trip to the coast, Peggy and I had the fun of staying one extra night in Seattle where we “accidently” discovered a couple of new-to-us businesses. If you saw our original day drinking in Seattle blog post, you know we had previously hit quite a few spots and had an amazing time, but we were going to try to outdo that? On this…
Explore Seattle Center and the City’s Quirkiest Neighborhoods
We love Seattle. There is so much to do and see. The city itself is beautiful. And when the sun comes out, it is hard to beat this place. First Stop – Brunch After our shenanigans the previous day (Day Drinking Seattle), we began our Saturday with brunch at Toulouse Petite Kitchen.

Beignets, crab and asparagus scramble,…

Hmmm….maybe a flawed plan? But check out our previous post in this category, Day Drinking – Boise. We experienced an epic day drinking afternoon in downtown Seattle. While a little limited by Covid shutdowns, our biggest challenge seemed to be the fact that bars didn’t update their Google information to show their true open hours. Now, as we move through this blog post with our recommendations and sharing our experience, please gloss over some areas…
Tulips, Whales And Bridges – An Epic Day in the Pacific Northwest
A few years ago, Peggy and I started our Big Travel List. A combination of “Bucket List Travel Destinations”, “50 Places to See Before you Die”, “Most Beautiful Places in America”, “Most Beautiful Places in the World”, etc. You get the picture. The list of “24 Breathtaking Places You Won’t Believe are in the US” led us to The Apostle Islands, Dry Tortugas National Park, Savannah, and quite a few others. But there was one right in our own backyard that we hadn’t done. In April, it was time for the once a year opportunity to see the Tulips of Skagit Valley. While it is never going to be the…
