In July I took a trip to Seattle. I went with a friend, stayed with them for a few days downtown, worked for another friends company on Mercer Island and then had a day to myself. I had a really well rounded experience. Seattle, size wise is somewhere between Portland and Los Angeles. It's a bit of a larger city, not as clean as Portland but also very clean and pretty. Lots of green to look at. Lots to do, people are nice and I heard it actually doesn't rain as much as the rest of the world thinks it does. Mercer Island was gorgeous, it's basically like the Hamptons of Seattle. I stayed in an airbnb place while I was there as well, super cute, couple was adorable and they had chickens!
