Los Hernandez -- home style hot tamales by YodioMan

(509) 457-6003 When Felipe Hernandez lost his job in the early 1990’s, he turned to his sister in his perpetual pursuit for the perfect masa. 2 million tamales later, and he still cooks and grinds his own masa. From a small store in Union Gap he (and his family) serve a limited menu of seemingly perfect tamales. It’s intimate with 2 tables, 1 stove, and your choice of pork or chicken tamales straight from the steamer. It’s hard to resist, so most eat their tamal fresh, but those in the know purchase frozen tamales to-go. And others phone in orders to be shipped. In the late spring (asparagus season) they feature a third choice, it’s their specialty of pepper jack cheese and asparagus.

Safeco Field - home of the Seattle Mariners by YodioMan

Seattle “Plays Ball” at Safeco Field. The “Safe” is a retractable roof baseball stadium. The stadium is the home for the Seattle Mariners of Major League Baseball (MLB) and seats 47,878 for baseball. The design of Safeco Field is considered 'retro-modern'. This style ballpark has many features of ballparks built in the 1950s; however the technologies and amenities are modern. The “Safe” features a brick facade, an asymmetrical field dimension, and a natural grass field. Since Seattle weather is often gray and rainy, the ballpark features a retractable roof that can be closed for inclement conditions. Keeping with today’s expectations, the food and beverage selections exceed the traditional ballpark fare. And the players enjoy modern clubhouse amenities and state-of-the-art technologies. Tours of the stadium are available for a small fee. Inquire at the main Team Store. The tour includes information about the stadium as well as entry into areas not open to the general public during games.

Victor Steinbrueck Park - PhotoOp by YodioMan

Victor Steinbrueck Park is a photograph-inviting location at the north end of the Pike Place Market. This 0.8 acre park provides a spectacular western view of Elliott Bay, Puget Sound, and in the distance is the Olympic Mountain range. The park is named after a mid-century Seattle architect and artist, Victor Steinbrueck, who was instrumental in the preservation of Pike Place Market and Pioneer Square. It is a small park offering spectacular views of the Washington State Ferries, West Seattle (the landing site for the first Seattle settlers), and the famous Seattle waterfront. This park was originally landscaped in 1982 as Market Park. Two cedar totem poles, designed by Victor Steinbrueck himself and carved by James Bender, were added in 1984. After Steinbrueck's death in 1985, the park was renamed to honor Steinbrueck’s leadership in preserving the Public Market.

World's Longest Floating Bridge -- Evergreen Pt. by YodioMan

The Evergreen Point Floating Bridge – now formally known as the Governor Albert D. Rosellini Bridge—Evergreen Point is the longest floating bridge on Earth at 2,285 metres (7,497 ft) and carries a daily traffic of 115,000 cars between Seattle and the residences/offices located east of Lake Washington. One of the area’s largest employers, Microsoft, is located east of Lake Washington. The result is an unusual occurrence of traffic congestion in both directions for both the morning and afternoon commutes. Following 3 years of construction, the bridge was opened in 1963. Today it is a four-lane toll bridge providing easy access from Seattle to Eastside communities such as Bellevue, Kirkland, and Redmond. The Evergreen Point of the bridge's original name is the westernmost of the three small Eastside peninsulas that SR-520 crosses. (The other two are Hunts Point and Yarrow Point.)

Lake Washington Floating Bridge - I-90 by YodioMan

Interstate 90 highway crosses Lake Washington on the second longest floating bridge on Earth. Formerly known as the Lake Washington Floating Bridge, the original two-way, four-lane bridge was designed and constructed of reinforced concrete. First envisioned in 1930, the construction began January 1, 1939 and was completed in 1940. Formally named the Lacey V. Murrow Memorial Bridge, the bridge’s namesake was the second Director of the Washington State Highway Department and a highly decorated US Air Force officer who served in World War II. The Lacey V. Murrow Memorial Bridge is the second longest floating bridge on Earth at 6,620 ft (2,020 m). After 23 years it became the second longest floating bridge with construction of the longer Evergreen Point Floating Bridge just a few miles to the north. The State of Washington has the first, second, and third longest floating bridges in the world. The third longest is the Hood Canal Floating Bridge about 30 miles (48 km) to the northwest of Seattle on the Olympi

Frye Art Museum - free and friendly museum by YodioMan

The Frye Art Museum is Seattle’s first free art museum. Located near downtown in Seattle’s First Hill neighborhood, the museum emphasizes painting and sculpture from the nineteenth century to the present. As early settlers, Charles and Emma Frye arrived in Seattle in 1888. For a 25-year period, they actively collected more than 230 pieces of fine art painted by both American and European artists, mostly from the 19th and 20th centuries. Upon his death in 1940, a trust in Charles Frye's will made provisions for Seattle’s first free public art museum, and today anyone can view the collection at no charge.. Charles, owner of a local meatpacking plant, set aside money in his will for a museum to house the Fryes' collection on terms that he stipulated. For example Charles Frye's will required that the majority of the Fryes' own collection continue always to be on view in rooms of a certain size; stipulations were also made about lighting conditions. Free parking is available across from the main entrance.

Ella Bailey Park -- scenic view of Seattle - PhotoOp by YodioMan

One of Seattle’s newest scenic view parks, this former school playground opened in 2007 as a public park with views that on a clear day include the city skyline of Seattle backed by Mt. Rainier. You’ll also see the saltwater of Elliott Bay being traversed by the Ferries as well as the sports stadiums. Located on the east side of the Magnolia Bluff, the park is sunny in mornings than submits to the shade as the day progresses. The view is striking as the sunset colors reflect off the city’s glass faced buildings. The park has picnic tables for a leisurely dining while enjoying the view.

Viretta Park -- de facto memorial to Kurt Cobain and PhotoOp by YodioMan

Famous/notorious and one of Seattle's many obscure, postage-stamp-sized parks, Viretta Park emerged from obscurity thanks to its association with the late Kurt Cobain, who lived in the shingled house to the north of the park, and he took his life in the shingled garage next to the park. Cobain, the lead singer of the Seattle-based, American grunge band, Nirvana, was found dead on April 8, 1994. Today, the park's wooden benches serve as the de facto memorial to Kurt Cobain. And they are typically covered with graffiti messages to the rock icon. Directly to the south of the park is a controversial mansion built by Howard Schultz the driving force behind a Starbucks on every corner. Schultz burned through his goodwill with the neighbors as he landscaped part of the park into his home’s grounds. He eventually moved on to a different neighborhood. There has been much talk about re-naming the park "Kurt's Park", due to the late rock icon’s large fan base that continues to visit the park. This is a PhotoOp

Kubota Gardens by YodioMan

Free Admission Kubota Gardens is truly a horticultural crown jewel tucked away in South Seattle. The gardens are free to the public, and it has a few picnic tables for your dining pleasure. Fujitaro Kubota began these gardens as a display of his fusion of Japanese gardening styles with Pacific NW plantings. As his gardening business prospered, his display garden grew along with the business. The Gardens are quite large for a Japanese garden. The 4.5 acres offer natural streams with many water features and waterfalls that seem to be hidden behind every turn. You’ll easily consume several hours in a leisurely paced visit to these Gardens. Most of the paths are gravel, so be sure to wear suitable shoes. Website: www.KubotaGarden.org

Discovery Park - Seattle's Biggest Park by YodioMan

Discovery Park is reportedly Seattle's largest park at 534 acres. You'll find trails providing an easy hike through the park where you'll find massive old-growth trees and spectacular view’s from atop Magnolia Bluff overlooking Puget Sound. Gorgeous views of Puget Sound and the Olympic Mountain range can be enjoyed from the top of the bluff or from the beaches below. Most visitors enjoy the miles of trails through hilly woods and many follow the trails down to the beaches and tide pools. One of the trails extends to the shores of Puget Sound and a scenic lighthouse. Our recommendation is to bring a bottle of water and a tasty picnic lunch to enjoy at a picnic bench in the woods or sitting on the beach.

Original Starbucks by YodioMan

The original Starbuck’s is a “must visit” for any latte’ sipping enthusiast. This store is the iconic location where Starbuck’s went commercial and began selling their roasted beans in the high traffic Public Market. Today the store features the original logo, original interior, updated drinks, and an assortment of Starbucks branded items with the original logo. If you have your camera handy, you’ll want to take a picture with the gold medallion that reads “The First Starbucks”. It may be the same Starbuck’s coffee that you’ll find around the world, but it offers those mugs and gear with the original logo – not to be found anywhere else in the world.
