There's always a trip to Paradise on Mt Rainier, and to view Mt St Helens. Any trip (loops are fine) that includes a ferry ride across Puget Sound is just magic. If you drive up anywhere near Anacortes, be SURE to drive to the top of Mt Erie, and walk out on the walkways to the cliff edge. You are 1,300' above Lake Campbell and Whidbey Island and the whole Deception Pass area. Just gorgeous, if you have a sunny day. If you drive out to the ocean, plan on spending at least an hour driving the back roads of Ocean Shores. There are tons of tame deer there. The last time we did that, we counted 20 deer sightings. Just plain fun. And you're right up next to them :). And you can drive out on the beach and up and down the beach a bit. Best if you have an all wheel drive :). There is a Lewis and Clark Museum at Ilwaco that is awesome.

Defiantly planning a weekend trip to San Juan Islands (specifically Guemes) when the weather gets nicer!
