1001 places to go before you die:
1. MACKINAC ISLAND
Mackinac Island (pronounced mack-ih-naw) should definitely be at the top of everyone's list. Or, at the top IF you reside in Michigan and neighboring states of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Minnesota. Logistically, a trip from Seattle would make it more difficult... although, worth the time travel. 
The island is small enough to run around -- even for an amateur, slow runner like me. The island is perfect for biking around. Rent a tandem and a honey and pedal through beautiful scenery... while laughing!! Ride a horse. Beware of the SMELL emitted from these island creatures -- it is a small island!
The no motorized vehicle ordinance makes this island very safe... unless you kicked in the head by one of the many horses in town. And I don't think you can receive a 'ticket' for drunk-walking on the way home from a pub.
The Grand Hotel ... as seen in the movie "Somewhere in Time"... is a lovely place to stay. Share a special moment with your daughters, mothers, grandmothers, sisters, or aunts during Afternoon Tea at the Grand Hotel.
I am dreaming of a vacation on Mackinac Island!
