Pick up a steaming bowl of ramen. Ooink is a local favorite in Capitol Hill, open from 11:30, so you have plenty of time to eat before the light changes.
15:45
Walk to the Frye Art Museum. It is a quiet, small private collection on First Hill. The free entry and parking make it an easy stop. Stand outside or in the garden to wait for the sun to drop.
16:45
Watch the sun set toward the WSW from the museum grounds. The golden light starts around 15:55, so you will be positioned perfectly to see the sky shift from gold to blue.
17:15
Finish your evening with a drink at Linda's Tavern. It is a short walk from the museum and features an outdoor patio, perfect for enjoying the last of the twilight under the stars.
