As a general rule, I do not watch sports on TV – the exceptions might be cycling and ski racing. And although I do enjoy the occasional hockey game (especially Olympic hockey), baseball would be far down my list of sports to watch. I remember it being as exciting as watching ice freeze. I do vaguely remember the rules changing regarding baseball in the hopes of hurrying the game along… and it appears to have worked. I found myself following the wins and losses of the World Series, and surprise, surprise, there I was Friday night, sitting on a comfy couch watching not just highlights but the entirety of Game 6 – I was hooked! Saturday, we made ourselves at home at a local sports bar and surrounded ourselves with baseball. I felt the players and I became friends; I shared in their joys and sorrows as the game ticked through the innings and then sadly ended. I went through the whole enchilada of emotions in a tidy 3.5 hours (not to mention too many beers, which I paid for on Sunday). It’s amazing how we can surprise ourselves by trying something new, like jumping on an end-of-the-road bandwagon. Give it a try… To start off this week’s highlights, we have more Nex Grip boots in stock – jump on this bandwagon and you know you will win! These boots all have ice cleats built into the heel, are waterproof, and are rated to -35°C – the quintessential winter boot! We have two new styles in store this winter... one is the Maeva short boot, with a nylon upper resembling a slipper – super cozy!!! Another new style is the Flavie mid boot, available in Fossil and black – a mid-rise boot to get you through the snow and the wet. Also, to keep you cozy in the coming months are our long, soft scarves – so many colours and so little time. And to wind up our newsletter for today are the new hoops by Sarah Mulder – the Gia hoops – available in small and medium, will help jazz up your fall style. Feel free to reply to this e-mail with thoughts, opinions, or suggestions – I look forward to your comments. We're open in the Whistler village: Sunday to Thursday 10 am - 6 pm Friday and Saturday 10 am - 7 pm If you can't visit us in person, you can still shop all of our new arrivals, jewellery, handbags, footwear, gifts, sales, & more by visiting our website here!
