When I went to the beach first time this summer, It was overcast and cold. I was the only person, honestly the only person without an umbrella. It felt like junior high all over again.  I went home, put some aloe on my bad sunburn and went to the internet to do some research. Waverly came through for me HUGELY. This is umbrella is a high quality item, at a great  price and came so quickly that I had it for my next trip to the beach.
