Yeah, I am definitely a mountain girl. When we escaped Mexifornia we investigated all the mountainous areas. Although it’s funny, I only looked at West Virginia out here, nothing else anywhere along the rest of the Appalachians. We were taking a driving trip, looking at West Virginia properties and just happened to get lost and ended up down here. And the rest as is they say is history
I only went to the ocean once a year when we were in California, just because we thought we should. Kind a like in Vacation, we looked at iit, looked around, nodded our head and went on our way, with sand in our shoes of course. I don’t really see the attraction, although I do have ocean waves on my noise machine. They sound pretty nice. But I prefer the mountain meadow one :-)
“I don’t really see the attraction, “
Salt water is very therapeutic.

I love the ocean, and would like living on the Outer Banks; but I’m getting too old to run away from hurricanes; and Husband can’t stand sand ;-)
The ocean is magical though. We lived in Manhattan Beach with a view of the ocean from our living room and I couldn’t get enough. Just the smell, he different colors of the water, wondering what those fishermen were doing at night with their lights on... the fresh moist air... if I won $3 million I’m going back.
Still, I could live without it. Water is magical, and lakes and rivers and even streams fill the bill.
