This is Worth a Look

I don't usually post on the weekends, but this article in the AZ Republic this morning is worth reading in its entirety. It's about our own Golf, Etc. Store in Lakeview Village. The owner also lives in Morrison Ranch. This is precisely what we mean when we say live, work and (someday when the golf course gets installed) play in Morrison Ranch. Here's the beginning of the article:

Joe Utley's mind was always thinking about the future and scanning for something different while working in the business world.

Some of the business ventures he came up with were unusual, like shrimp farming in Arizona, but after researching the possibility, he would move on to something else.

But Utley, a Gilbert independent retailer since leaving Phillips Petroleum a few years ago, always came back to golf.

Even when his house was filled with fishing line - "He even took over my laundry room with it," wife Celina said - that he was selling on eBay, Utley's thought golf.

"It has always been a dream of mine," Utley, 36, said. "I've golfed all of my life, I've been a businessman and I figured it would be a great way to do business with your passion."

That's why when he came across the Golf Etc. franchise, Utley knew this was finally one he could settle on.
