THINGS TO DO
RIDE A ZIPLINE OVER A 'POND'
Daily at the Everett Mall
Nothing says adventure like riding a zipline over a suburban water-retention pond at the Everett Mall. We're serious, this is a thing. All jokes aside, it looks pretty dang fun! More info here.
3D PRINT SOMETHING
MONDAY AT THE FUTURE OF FLIGHT
Interested in 3D printing? Us too! The Future of Flight hosts an event called "Maker Mondays" where visitors can use their 3D printer for just $5.00 (free for members). The software can be downloaded for free and used on your home computer, so you can spend time learning to design and then print your creation when you visit the Future of Flight. We think this is awesome! More info here.

X-TREME ICE RACING

EAT + DRINK
The Totem's Biscuit Barge is perhaps the most heinously delicious breakfast item you'll find in Everett. Heinous because it's so good that it makes you do bad things, like eat all of it in one sitting. It's a biscuit cut in half, topped with two sausage patties, eggs, country gravy and then potatoes. It's a gut bomb, but you gotta try it.
Two Bar Spirits is a distillery from Seattle that makes one of the most delicious bourbons we've ever had. How does this relate to Everett? Well, the Anchor and Bluewater both have this spirit on the shelf and we suggest you head out for an evening this week and go try some. That is, if you're 21 and like bourbon. If bourbon isn't your thing, both the Anchor and Bluewater make great cocktails.
