Going back to wordpress….

Thursday July 30 2009

Well, I just spent 30 minutes deleting advertisements for anything from car insurance to all sorts of prescription drugs that I’ve never heard of. The downside of my current website is it doesn’t have filtering for people’s comments, and so anyone and their cousin can leave messages. So I’m starting a new blog at cooperwrightreeds.wordpress.com. So come visit me over there!

Welcome to the heat…

Friday July 24 2009

Well, we drove just over 1300 miles to relocate to our new home in Chandler, Arizona. We moved in exactly one week ago, and the Qwest internet guy came and hooked up our connection, so I’m back to Internet-land. How did we survive without it!?!?!? (I went nuts without it, but that’s another story.)

Currently I’m catching up on my reed orders, and should have all my orders ready to go out by Monday. My wife is currently working at Weber Reeds, owned by David and Vendla Weber helping them get orders off, do paperwork, and general management. It’s odd having my wife come home talking about shaper tips and mandrels and cane types and what not. No, in fact it’s just plain-out BIZARRE…. She’s entered my odd little world, and I’m not sure how I feel about it!

In any case, it’s great to be in Arizona, and have the fortune to see the Webers and speak to David daily on reed ideas, gouge concepts, repair techniques, and what not. I feel like a very fortune person, and look forward to this upcoming year

I’m starting to go back to the Ferlings. Somehow in my training, I managed to get by without doing them all, and I thought now would be a good time to get caught up doing them.

I’m looking for students now. I love teaching, but I’m sure getting students will be tough. There’s a lot of good players out here!

Packin’ up…

Saturday July 11 2009

Well, we are just about packed, and ready to head toward Arizona this Tuesday! It’s been a good two years of homecoming to come back here in Eugene, but education awaits and I’m looking forward to living in Arizona near Mr. Weber, Martin, and 4,999,998 other people.
