05/23 Researching Western Saddles

I read several books a week and try to make sure I read lots of different types of books. Last week I ran across this book in a used bookstore about the history of western saddles. I’m not really sure why I picked it up. I guess I bought it because the cover had a really pretty photo of an old saddle. In any case, I bought it and just finished reading it. It was surprisingly interesting! I had no idea of all the history behind them or how much they’ve changed over the years while still essentially staying the same. It definitely made me want to get back into riding again.

05/21 I got sponsored!

I recently got my first sponsor which is one of the most exciting things that has happened to me in my career. I am still at high school and my parents pay most of my expenses, so last year when I made the nationals in my grade for water polo I decided to start approaching some local businesses to see if they could help. Actually I started with companies I found online which was a bit optimistic, I tried wheatbix and redbak and some others but at my level I didn’t have much of a shot, but i figure at least I have my name out there, perhaps when I’m kicking ass for Australia they will go ohh, that’s the girl that applied for sponsorship back in 2008! Haha, I hope so. I know sponsorship isn’t always to get so I’m really excited!

05/10 Sauna Suits are Made of Non-Breathable Materials.

By definition the sauna suit is made of non-breathable material. A Latex Sauna Suit is popular with people because it is low in cost and effective in keeping body heat and moisture inside the suit. Wearing a sauna suit while exercising is going to increase the blood circulation and increase the body’s metabolic rate. You will lose water weight and your body will be able to releae more toxins because the sweat glands will be open. Make sure to stay hydrated while you wear a suana suit. Remember that latex tends to tear easily. Hand wash your suit with mild soap.

05/08 Making leather hiking boots into waterproof hiking boots

For Mother’s Day last year my family got me the most beautiful pair of leather hiking boots that I had ever seen. I loved the boots so much I was afraid that if I wore them I would ruin them. My husband went out to the store and came home with a spray that I could use on them to make them waterproof hiking boots. I hope this stuff works because we have a long hike planned with friends for next weekend and I will just cry if my new boots get messed up. The spray darkened the leather a little but they still look great.

04/07 Can I afford to live there?

Planning to retire to Florida?  Does the living in a Florida Golf Community appeal to you?  Are you concerned about the costs of buying in this type of community?  Due to the popularity of these communities in Florida, they are now affordable to everyone who has the desire to have access to a golf course all year long in a tropical/subtropical climate.  For the most part Florida golf communities offer a variety of homes to choose from, ranging from stately homes along the golf course, to single style family homes, villa style homes and town homes.  Some even offer apartments.  With this wide range of housing opportunities and thus range in pricing, the opportunity to live by the golf course and enjoy an active and social life in a golf community is possible for everyone.

04/01 How about semi-retirement?

People around me always look forward to retirement then enjoying life. But there are so many uncertainties, so many what if’s. What if, they don’t make it to that age? Given current living condition and high level of stress, this is something very possible. Personally, I want to have a semi-retirement lifestyle. I work when I wanted to and I fly fish when I feels like it. Take this year for example, I am planning have a fly fishing trip in alaska for the whole of July to August. If you are holding a office hour job, would you be able to do that? Let’s say if you are retired, would you have the strength to do the trek to that good fly fishing location?

03/19 Women’s Golf Apparel in the UK

Some may be surprised that few US companies specialize in trendy Womens Golf Apparel. If you do a Google search you’ll notice that all of the top hits are companies in the UK. For instance, www.trendygolf.com has a lot of really cute, designer clothing specifically for golf but they are in the UK and only ship within the UK. Another site, www.golfposer.com has the same type of hip golf fashions. They are also in the UK but do claim to ship internationally.  Going down the list, all of the web sites originate in the UK.  Younger, fashion-conscious golfers are more prominent than ever so it seems like opening retail outlet that specializes in trendy golf apparel would do very well in the United States and someone should jump on the opportunity.

03/02 Custom Golf Clubs

Ok, let’s face it, custom golf clubs are one heck of a vanity item - but - I can’t resist… I’ve been looking at custom golf clubs for quite awhile now. Ever since I discovered that one of my fellow golfers had custom golf clubs, I knew that I wanted a set soon. I’ve been looking at a few sources for custom golf clubs of late, there are in fact now a few online shops that do custom golf clubs - just do a search online and you will find their websites quite quickly. Custom golf clubs are not cheap though, in fact they can cost a small fortune, especially the higher end ones which are carefully custom crafted specifically for you. Some firms will insist on measuring you personally as well as doing a full analysis of your golf swing to determine the best way to customise their golf clubs for you.
