Escape the heat with a cooooool gelato. Sophie's Scoops in Olympia uses milk from nearby Tunawerth Creamery and seasonal ingredients from Thurston County farms and farmers markets. It's a farm-to-tongue frozen treat! Located at 222 Capitol Way N.

Super happy with how this one turned out. Please watch, like and subscribe if you're into the '90s music that defined the Northwest! 🕺🎸

Hop in the van and crank up the volume, because the Upper Lefters are taking you on a riff-heavy road trip through the Pacific Northwest’s grungiest landmark...

Did some serious 5-Star camping down near the Wash./Oregon border at Under Canvas Columbia River Gorge, which just opened this summer. It's pet-friendly, too, which made Marvin very happy! ⛺️🐶

🌊✨ Just 11 seconds of pure serenity from the beach in Pacific City, Oregon.

This little coastal gem is best known for Haystack Rock rising from the waves, and the Dory Fleet that’s been launching boats straight from the beach since the early 1900s. It’s one of the only places left in the U.S. where this style of fishing still happens.
