Sportbrella

Living in Nevada for a few years, I discovered that everyone sits on the beach of the lake and swims.  That was new to me.  I'd only ever done that at the ocean.  I guess we are more of the 'boater' type family and usually are out on the lake in a boat, not sitting on the shore.

In that hot Nevada sun, I quickly learned, mama pajama, you need some shade!  My sister in laws had the best beach umbrella's of anyone.  They were the sturdiest and provided the most shade.  I quickly got one for myself - The Sportbrella.

It's a cool umbrella because you can either stake it into the sand, or if it's a rocky soil or if the sun is low in the sky, you can lay it on its side.

The only thing that might improve this is to purchase an anchor to make it REAL secure in the sand.  And don't get a plastic anchor, it's got to be metal...
