St. Helens, the North Cascades, the Boeing assembly plant in Everette, a ferry ride just about anywhere, the Olympic National Park with a trip up to Hurricane Ridge. I love SeaFair in the summer with the air show over Lake Washington - with the Blue Angels. Tulip fields in bloom in the spring, apple orchards in bloom, a ride along the Pacific coast. On a late night flight out of SeaTac airport I once saw the northern lights over Mr. Rainier! Mt. Rainier is awesome either up close or on a lovely clear day from anywhere in the Seattle area.
