Michael,
   Don't even think about Seatac - you can't carry enough money in your
airplane.  It's become prohibitive to fly GA into Seatac.  I've forgotten
the costs, but you start out with landing fees, parking fees and the fuel
vendor will charge a bunch of moola to take you to the main terminal if
your'e not being picked up by someone.  They'll waive that transport fee if
you pay them BIG bucks to fill your gas tanks.  Seatac is a very easy
airport to fly in and out of but not to remain financially solvent as well.
   Bottom line - use Boeing Field - I recommend Galvin Aviation (FBO) for
parking.  Ain't no such think as cheap tiedowns in Seattle, but the service
here is great and they'll scare up a nice new courtesy car when they can if
you just need it for a few hours or so.
Regards..John Barrett
