Our last day here! We tried to finish up on everything we wanted to do. We needed to move out of our room this morning because it was already booked for this weekend. In the meantime, the room we were moving into wasn't ready yet. We got to pack everything up in the suburban and wait a couple of hours for our new room to be ready. We went and picked up my glass float. This was so fun, if you ever have a chance to do this, and you think it sounds fun, I say do it! 
E has been wanting a bonsai tree for a while now. There is a shop in Lincoln City, Roots 101, that sells bonsai trees, so we bought one there. The people that work there are very knowledgeable and took the time to show us how to care for this tree. Unfortunately, these kind of trees don't always tend to live, especially your first one, so I am thinking when we come back up here in June we may be visiting this shop again. Lincoln City has an outlet mall that we visited today. That's a place I'd like to come back to. They had a book store that has great prices. For lunch E and I went to a Thai restaurant. She had been wanting sushi on this visit but Thai food was a good substitute. I've never had Thai food before, so I got to embarrass her when I asked our waiter what to do with the bean sprouts they served with lunch! 
We went to Lincoln City's Museum, which we all enjoyed. They had a children's section that A and E had fun in. A harp that actually played, and a giant kaleidescope were our favorites.
The yarn shop S and I had visited earlier this week had a knitting group that was going on today from 5-7 at their shop. We went and knit there with the group for an hour. The ladies were all so friendly; we didn't want to leave! We will definitely be back to this store, and hopefully meet some of them on Ravelry. 
Dinnertime - our last in Lincoln City. They actually still have a restaurant called Lil' Sambo's. Since Clay used to work at a Sambo's when he was young, we went there for dinner. We're really glad we did. There's nothing like good service when you go out to eat. Plus the food was good, too. 
We had rain off and on all day today. The view in this room is even better. We're higher so we can see more of the ocean. It's amazing how you can actually see the storm off the horizon over the ocean and see it move inland.

I hear there's a chance of snow down on the floor, with chains mandatory up in the mountains already. I like the snow, but I love the ocean!
