Notes From Heather Jan/Feb
January 8, 2010 by Heather Caro

Aside from enjoying nearly 300 days of sunshine yearly, a bounty of fresh produce and stellar wines at our fingertips, one of the benefits of living in Yakima is its central location. From snowy mountain peaks to Pacific Ocean vistas, the bustling cityscapes of Seattle or Portland to rolling country farmland, residents of the Yakima valley enjoy easy access to some of the finest vacation destinations in the northwest.
In this spirit, the travel edition of Yakima brings readers a sampling of daytrip ideas – not so far from home. We also include a downtown Yakima daytrip itinerary to inspire readers to be a “tourist in their own town.” Our hope is for readers to discove they don’t have to travel far from home to find new experiences, and, in the spirit of St. Valentine’s Day, maybe even a little romance.
Of course, the best part of taking any trip is returning back home. And with stories about some of the people and places that make this town our own, we think readers will find something to suit nearly every interest in this edition.
Thanks for all of the accolades after our premiere edition of Yakima. We love to hear your comments and story ides – so please keep them coming. You can reach us by email at feedback@yakimamagazine.cm and on the web at www.yakimamagazine.com. Or join us online at our facebook page to share your favorite Yakima “best kept secrets.” You might just find your name in print in an upcoming edition.

To bring a little romance to your Valentine’s table, create a red velvet cake of your own, like the tasty one pictured from Yakima’s White House Café. Read more
