Where to go, what to see and what to do in and around the Emerald City.

The Fourth of July commemorates the day we declared independence from Great Britain–all over America we celebrate with music, food, and fireworks.  It may fall on a Wednesday this year, but that doesn’t mean you can’t go out and have a good time.  Here are some of the best places in the Seattle area to check out the fireworks.

Looking for some hot fun in the summer time? I’ve got the party for you. Slide your hide into the leather seats of your convertible (or minivan, or jalopy, just get yourself there, kids) and head on up to Tulalip Casino on July 7th for a night on the patio spent tasting some of the biggest red wines Washington has to offer alongside award-winning cuisine.
