When I got laid off, I made a list of all the cheap and/or free things I wanted to do while I had extra time during the day. Honestly, I was pretty bummed that I'd lived in Seattle for almost eight years and was able to compile such a long list. But, hey, I'm one person and I have a lot of life to live.
The
Volunteer Park Conservatory ($4 day pass for adults) was top of my list for many reasons, not least of which was how anyone could figure out how to keep that many plants alive at once. I can't help but perpetually kill plants, so I was in awe the entire time I was self-guided touring.
Plus, it smells like Hawaii, and anything that smells like Hawaii is a good thing.
If you have ideas of places I should add to my list, please do let me know!
