September 24th - It was on this day in history in 1845 that the first baseball team was organized. I remember when we’d play baseball for gym in grade school. For once in my life I wasn’t the last girl picked! My older brother taught me how to swing a bat in a way that was guaranteed to make contact with the ball and send it flying. I was known to hit grand slams and homeruns on a consistent basis. So, when we played baseball for gym, not only was I not picked last, but I was picked first! I just had to share that happy childhood story with you. But now I’m gonna share some smokin’ coupons with you.

1895 - 1st Around-the-World Trip by a Woman on a Bicycle - This milestone took about 15 months to accomplish. To be able to say that you took a ride around the world on a bike, well, you’re a superhero in my books. She must have used more than one bike though. With all the different types of terrains from forests to mountains to roads and more, one bike couldn’t withstand all that! Maybe you won’t take a trip around the world on your bike, but you may want to take a ride on the different routes that nature offers. So, take a cruise over to Sierra Trading Post where you’ll discover an array of brand name mountain bikes & road bikes for less. Plus, get an additional 35-70% off by redeeming exclusive Sierra Trading Post coupons!
Famous Birthday
Jim Henson, 71 - He was the beloved creator of The Muppet’s. I used to loooove that show. Kermit the Frog, Miss Piggy, those two other guys in the opera house balcony….aaaaaah memories. The best part about that show was it was something that could entertain both my parents and me. Both adults and children get a kick out of the wacky characters and funny jokes. Over the years, there were also many Muppet movies that came out. If you’d like to add them to your collection of DVDs, head over to Sony Style.
