Free Golf Checklist & Tips

It always seems to be a challenge to get out the door for a day of golf or a vacation without forgetting something you need. Sometimes I stand at the door and ask myself, “Do I have enough balls, the right visor and do my socks match? Did I remember that new hat clip that I just bought?” Then, I will be in my car and think, “Do I have my shoes (or the right pair), sunscreen or an extra pair of socks?” Then, “OH NO… Where is my phone, my sunglasses or my rain jacket?” Read more

Diane and Deb,

So, far, I have taken (the Signature bag) on a Disney World family vacation, using it as my airplane carry-on, and as my sole piece of luggage for a weekend with my husband in Manhattan.

On the way home from Disney, I used the amazingly spacious center pocket for lots of plane snacks, I could not believe how many boxes of Mickey-shaped cookies fit. Read more
