After moving back South from California, let's just say the heat hits different. I keep this tumbler with me everywhere now. Because when you come back to a hot car, pop the top—and the water is still ice cold? That's a little win that keeps me going (and hydrated).

This time of year is spontaneous. That’s part of the magic. But I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve needed a bag and didn’t have one. This one lives in my glove compartment or stays rolled up in my trunk—lightweight but sturdy, with just enough space for road trip snacks, produce, or last-minute errands.
