This famously flinty, down-to-earth state has tended to have a bigger reputation

Who hasn’t dreamed of using up every hour of their PTO to take a fabulous tropical getaway in the summer? Plenty of us, it turns out.  If you’re petrified by the idea of sweating in the sun, and prefer a refreshing breeze to humid air, a “coolcation” may be for you. This new trend in
