Whether you're a lifelong resident of Puget Sound, a transplanted citizen or simply visiting, you know how special this place is. If you've never visited this part of the United States, then you've missed out on what many consider to be the jewel of the Pacific Northwest. It is anything but ordinary. It's a region where the extraordinary is commonplace and commonplace is anything but. And if you listen closely, you just might discover that in the Puget Sound, there are amazing things happening all around you. From espresso machines to grunge rock, the sound of an orca blowing as it surfaces, the roar of the crowd at Safeco Field, or the near silence of the Olympic rainforest...the area has a distinct sound. From the stately flanks of its Cascade volcanoes to the stony shores of its myriad waterways, the region offers an unmatched wealth of events, resources, and activities. And they're all here at IdleChild.com!
