Funny. Those are decent suggestions, but it's kinda telling that if you ask "where should I go while in city X" on a car forum, every suggestion you get will involve a multi-hour drive out of the city in question.

Things are still partially shut down in the city proper (that Queen Anne neighborhood where the OP is staying is pretty central), there are still things to do that don't involve driving hours out to the Mountain Loop Highway, for example.

"Driver up US 2 to Stevens Pass. Not a lot to do out there, but beautiful drive."

LOL. Stevens Pass is the heart of the central cascades. Hundreds of miles of hiking, climbing, skiing, biking, camping, off-roading, hunting, and fishing right off of the pass. PCT crosses through there. It's one of the major outdoor recreational areas in the state.

Now that Mount Rainier NP has opened for day trips, for a long scenic drive from Seattle, I'd suggest going south over Chinook and Cayuse Passes into the park and up to the Paradise visitor center. Pretty spectacular countryside, and you end up on a volcano.

Another drive suggestion would be to drive down to Crystal Mountain and take the gondola ride up to the top. It's open now on weekends. Incredible views of Mount Rainier that you get without having to exert yourself.
