I recently spent a few days at the beautiful Sunset Key Cottages in Key West, Florida, which, for a second year in a row, played host to Columbia Sportswear’s annual media event. While last year’s trip was marked with beautiful weather, this time was a bit different — the back end of Tropical Storm Debby did not play nicely with us, whipping persistent southwest winds of 30 mph into Key West and its surroundings and making fishing all but impossible. Still, it was good to be in the Keys — and we weren’t deterred just yet.
