Domino sitting out and watching game 1 of the Pacific International Cup. Only one word describes this game, and we've got a biter! I've got two computers, one running the webstream and another updating the blog. In between pacing between the computers, I've got another handful with Little Leianna. 8 end curling games last about 2 hours, and that's a long time to keep a baby happy. We've got quite a juggling act behind the scenes, but she's doing pretty good considering she's only nine months old.
Team Bond Girls started with an early lead. They had a couple of lucky opportunities which they were able to take advantage of in the first 2 ends. Colorado scores 1 in the 3rd end. Team Bond Girls responds with another point in the 4th. Colorado climbs bit by bit in the 5th & 6th end, tying the score. There was an attempt to clear the house to start the 8th end with the hammer. Instead Colorado takes the point. At the end of the 8th end, there's 3 stones in the house. Colorado sitting one in the 2 ft. and team Bond Girls lying 2nd and 3rd in the 12 ft. A take out and stick to sit 3 would make it a win, but looks like the rock didn't have enough weight. Colorado wins with the final score 6 - 4, but it was a very hard fought win.
Highlights:
- Jennifer lost a sock during the game. It's somewhere by her toes, and could have been a BIG factor in the game.
- Marissa had 2 great takeouts in the row in the 4th
- Cindy also had a great double take out
- Here is our new mascot. We're still trying to figure out his name and story...coming soon
Team Bond Girls had a very good warm up. This is only the beginning...Stay tuned to the next curling match:
Thursday, April 19
10:00 AM - vs. Alaska
Good Curling!
