Go for a hike
The PNW is an area of many hiking trails. From trails in the city to some a short drive away, hiking is not only a great way to spend the day outdoors, but it’s also good for you. Be sure to dress appropriately (especially footwear), and bring your reusable bottle of water filled up for your journey.

Go stargazing
Yes, it is freezing out this week. That doesn’t mean that you can’t bundle up in 500 layers and go enjoy the stars. Go the extra mile by bringing along a blanket, some snacks, and binoculars and telescopes if you have them.
Get takeout from a restaurant
This may not sound that exciting, but just like the magic in the stars, food has its own magic. From a variety of diverse dishes to desserts, Seattle is packed with local and hidden gems when it comes to restaurants and bars. And with most places delivering these days, plan to try out a new restaurant, or take it out for a picnic to make this an outdoor experience.

Check out a farmers’ market
Plan for your weekend brunch or dinner by heading to a local farmer’s market. Many safety restrictions are in place, so give yourselves time to grab the ingredients to your next meal together. Don’t forget your reusable bags, and maybe look up recipes in a cookbook or two before planning your trip to the market.
