A New Hobby That’s Right Up My Alley

In my last blog post, I explained how the right type of cookware was important for those in the catering or restaurant business. Everyone should know that I don’t own a catering business or restaurant, nor do I ever plan to.  I was really into cooking at the time so I learned a lot about the different types of cookware and decided to share my new knowledge in a post. My obsession with cooking was short-lived, which isn’t a big surprise for those of you that know me well. For those of you that don’t, I’m the type of person that gets bored really easily and changes my hobby often.

After my love of cooking died, I turned into a bowling freak! Lately, I have spent more time at the bowling alley than my house. My fascination with the sport means I have a lot of new information to share so I’ll get right to it!

I’m not going to take the time to tell you the latest facts on bowling balls and shoes. That stuff is all over the internet so just do a quick Google search if you want to know about that. Like I said, I’ve spent a lot of time at the bowling alley and often talk to the owner when I’m there. He has shared the in-and-outs of the bowling alley business with me which has been very interesting! Our conversations made me realize that the amount of bowling equipment necessary to properly run an alley is obnoxious and slightly overwhelming! From ball lift tracts and power motors for the ball returns to the various machines and cleaners necessary for proper lane maintenance, I was learning about something new every day. Realistically, a lot of you don’t care about bowling equipment one bit so I’m not going to bore you with details.

Chances are the next time I write a blog post, I will be on to a new hobby so before I go, I wanted to point you guys in the direction of something bowling related that you might actually care about. I came across this blog post, Mr. Heisman isn’t Perfect, and thought it was funny! Check it out if you have time; if not just know that I’m a better bowler than Johnny Manziel and you probably are too!
