On Sunday we spent the day in Lincoln City. Went to the Chinook Winds Resort and Casino but didn't play anything at the casino. Went there for the Teddy Bear Convention. Apparently it's been there every year for the past 14 years or so. What an interesting place to be. So many bears but not the commercial Andrew Brownsword Bears or Gund Bears I was expecting. These were collectible bears with prices starting over $100. There were so many variety of bears with so many different costumes. The reason why they're so expensive was that they're made of mohair - sheared hair from a goat or sheep.
Went to the Tanger Outlet Mall and then to Lee' Chinese Restaurant.

- Hi, welcome to my world! In October, 2006 I walked my first half marathon in Victoria. By raising $4500 for the Arthritis Society I was able to walk my first full marathon in Honolulu in December. In 2007 and 2008 I raised $300 each year for the BC Cancer Foundation's Underwear Affair (for cancers below the waist). It's a 10km run/5km walk - I walked and the fundraising minimum was $300. The walk was late in the afternoon (yee ha) and afterwards there was a party with dancing and prizes for best costumes! There were a lot of brave people in their skivvies!
