How far for a run?

After seeing the run to Annie's Pizza Station I have been thinking about how many other cool places people would like to go. My questions would be how far would people be willing to go? Day trip? Few Hours?

One of my ideas and places would be to do a run to the Brick (The oldest bar in WA) in Roslyn.

I like day trips myself, but then, most of the events I attend up north turn into all day events, whether they are shows or drives. How about a drive to Northwest Trek and hang there for the day, picnic lunch, wildlife tram, cool place, summer time of course, lol.

I'd be up for overnight trips if I had a job that would allow such a thing. But I'm all for day trips (we love them), so long as there is enough warning so that my husband can take off work and it doesn't conflict with my children's school and wrestling schedule.

I can do some day trip and overnight stuff, but not a lot. I'd not be adverse to a trip to Canada sometime though...

Sunday drives work for me. Otherwise, I'm limited on how much time away I can be but I do like to drive. Every June my friend and I drive all over from Lynden to Puyallup to go to quilt stores (and some people spend four days driving all over Western Washington) so I can be persuaded for a "good cause."

Canada would be awesome. I don't know what we'd do up there but I know of an outdoor go-cart track with reasonable prices that happens to be very close to a Toyota dealership. We could go do a dealership drive-by, lol.
