and a squeak by win for the Valkyries.
I think I mentioned that I have season tickets. The home games are in Chase Center, SF in one of the revitalized areas of the city. Yes, I think a lot of it is probably built on fill, but so far nothing is sinking. The games are held at Chase Center. That means, at least for those of us in the East Bay, the only sensible way to get there is public transportation. Yes, parking contracts were offered. But seriously? 900$? And that doesn’t include the pain of driving, the fuel and the additional cost of the Bay Bridge Toll. Anyway. BART to the N-Judah and we walked from 4th & King. (Return was the S to Powell Street & BART). Since parking is free at N-Berkeley BART on weekends..
The game itself went from cheering to stress and back. At one point, the Valkyries had a 20 point lead over the Seattle Storm. That lead went to almost nothing in the 4th quarter before they managed to squeak back to win 76-70. Too many sloppy passes and missed baskets. But the crowd is amazing
Second – the Light House is done (actually, this was before the game, but in courtesy – the non-craft types can stop reading here)
A lot of stitches in this piece for the size (about 9k). 18 ct Zweigart Smokey white and BeStitchMe Silks.
I also put in some stitches on the July Mini-Village & started the Haunted House. (#8/12-13).
