This is the first time I’ve ever seen the Scotty Cameron Kombi putter.
Honestly, I had no idea that Scotty Cameron made mallet putters and trust me this is a huge mallet putter.
It really looks like they took the Star Trek Enterprise, stuck a grip and shaft on it, and …

There is a little something for everyone at Bertha Brock Park, located in quiet Ionia, Michigan. The town leaves a little to be desire, sporting nothing more than a few chain stores such as Meijer, Kmart and Walmart, and is desperately lacking in that many of its business are …

The drive up to High Springs was about thirty minutes and like all …

Traveling to the center part of Florida is a common thing for me, but I rarely find myself traveling to the western side of Central Florida. Basically, the Tampa Bay area. I’m not a huge fan of Bush Gardens, so I’m not really up to date on newer rides …

I just came back from Ravenna, Italy where there is yet another great thema park, Mirabilandia. I gotta say that compared to Gradaland this was a tad funner from the rides point of view but less fun from the atmosphere.
There are 3 major rides, An upsidedown rollercoster (similar to …

Last week renewed my …

Being in tropical, sunny island Singapore, it is not surprising to see many locals head down to the myriad swimming complexes in the neighbourhood. To find a swimming complex which is not crowded is virtually impossible. My husband said that the one at Katong is less crowded, so we …
