Drive Hood Canal (Hwy 101) from Union, Wa to Quilcene for scenic water views....I sent Tevake that way last year and he liked it....I grew up in that area....PM me for details......

As a PNW native, I will heartily second all of this. My wife and I ride or drive these areas regularly, and they just never get old. Some of our prettiest scenery, best hiking, and smallest crowds.
