Have a Sand-Sational Time

Summer has finally arrived! The sun is shining longer, your skin is turning a golden tan, and the beach is calling your name. The unique gifts of sand, sun, and surf won’t be around for long, which is why we offer a wide variety of ways to make the most of a trip to the beach. Every beachgoer knows it’s hard to relax in flimsy, awkward chairs that offer no protection from the sun’s unrelenting rays.

Here’s What it Takes to Make Travel Easier

More than 38 million people took to the road or the skies this Memorial Day weekend, kicking off one of the busiest travel periods in years. In spite of recent increases in the price of gas, what we now pay at the pump is still the lowest in 11 years, a unique gift for drivers everywhere.

The oldest—and arguably the most prestigious—tennis tournament in the world, something about this championship gives us the urge to dig our long-neglected rackets out of the closet and volley some balls. You, too, could be playing at a moment’s notice with this freestanding tennis set that instantly creates a court on a driveway, patio, or any hard, flat surface. Requiring no tools for setup, the nylon net simply slips over the snap-together metal supports to create a regulation-height, 12′ wide court. The smaller court, reduced-size rackets, and slower rebounding ball add up to a fun, active game, ideal for building or relearning long-dormant skills. If you’ve not played in a while, you may need to work on your grip strength. This hand fitness trainer slips on like a glove and has latex-free elastic bands that strap to each fingertip, providing resistance as you open your hand t...
