Dairy Queen is not only found in Washington, and for that we are thankful — a Blizzard tastes especially delicious on a road trip, after all.

But did you know that the first Dairy Queen in the Evergreen State opened less than a decade later? And thankfully, that location is still around (and better than ever).
