Coach’s Corner, Where Everybody Knows Your Name
·
One of my favorite shows growing up was Cheers, a sitcom about a Boston bar and the lives of the people who frequented it. The theme song and tag line of the show was “Where Everybody Knows Your Name”. I think every community yearns for that kind of place and thanks to Rob & Jen…

Playing a Round at Creighton Farms Golf Club
·
I’ve played a lot of high caliber golf courses, Congressional, Pinehurst, Treyburn (that’s Michael Jordan’s club in Durham, NC) just to name a few.

Last week I stopped by Sweetz Bakery in Leesburg for the first time. In addition to yummy cupcakes, cookies, and other delicious pastries, customers can grab a soup and panini of the day. I had the Thai Chicken Noodle soup and a perfect chocolate chip cookie, just what the doctor ordered to fight off this cold. On Fridays, adult…
