Hi all,
I live in Seattle and I agree with gfglark3 that the best thing we have to offer is our parks. There are excellent parks in the city as well as outside of it, and some of the urban ones were designed by the Olmsted Brothers! (the same guys that did Central Park in NYC)
As for the OCA parish in Tacoma, it is the one of the oldest Orthodox communities in the Pacific Northwest. So while most of the people converted as adults, the people who converted as babies have been a strong, loyal presence to that parish to make sure that the late-comers are quickly culturally aclimated into being an Orthodox Chrisitan.
Their original temple was actually consecreated by St Tikhon!
