Inside the Wave D.The ExplorerB The freezing Northeast hasnt been a terribly fun place to spend time this winter, so when the chance came for a weekend to Sarasota, Florida, my bags were packed before you could say “sunshine” I left for the land of warmth and vitamin C, thinking of beaches and orange trees.
