Chess Ladders

Jewish academy squad knighted chess champs

Chess for Success' mission is "to provide children in economically disadvantaged elementary and middle schools the opportunity to build and develop important skills necessary for success in school and life by participating in chess club programs and tournaments."

If you are not a total rookie, then you will know that there is something called a crewed yacht charter. Of course, me being the rookie that I am, I only learned about these charters last year. But, now that I have found out about them I am hooked. The idea is, you charter a luxury yacht or sailboat in just about any exciting destination you can think of and then you charter a crewed yacht, one that has a crew and captain, to cruise the waters in and around the port of choice. Then? Well, then you simply relax and sip on your beverage of choice while the crew and captain take care of the rest. Sound too good to be true? Well, it is not. Crewed charters go on every day of the year and there are hundreds if not thousands of luxury yachts available for charter all over the world. They represent an amazing opportunity for the traveler or family looking for a great way to spend a week or two in an exciting location.

Country Music and Chess

I am sure if you are like me that you have two passions in your life, Country music and Chess. No? Okay, well I am definitely not like most people, but I have enjoyed both of these for most of the years of my life. One of my favorite books, was on how to play chess that my aunt gave me when I was about 9. I am not sure why, but I was hooked from that day forward. I also love Country music groups like Brooks & Dunn. They are two smooth singers and great songwriters...another thing that I have been able to appreciate over the years. So, what do you like?
