This weekend will be the eighth annual Sunset Celebration Weekend at the magazine’s compound in nearby Menlo Park, and, of course, we’re going. We went last year. This year, the architect behind the Glidehouse has a new attraction: the Sunset Breezehouse (reviewed here by SF Chronicle architecture writer John King), and we’re looking forward to seeing it. All we’d really need is land, lotsa land, under starry skies above. And $300K or so, which we could easily get–and then some–for our townhouse if we sold it.

Also, the Giants (suck) and the A’s (also suck) will be playing each other this weekend. I, the sucker for punishment, will be watching Saturday and Sunday’s games. The Giants’ “Double Play Ticket Window” wanted between $200 and $500 for a pair of seats to Saturday’s game. At least one of the two teams will actually win a series.
