I do love both but It would be the ocean no 1 and then mountains.
My sister always chooses the mountains.
But it can't be any ocean or any mountain. Not Hawaii or CA or Carribean ocean-it's gotta be the Atlantic in all it's glorious moods-grey and rough, beautiful sparkling sun waves.
And the mountains-not the Rockies, or anywhere else but the Blue Ridge-I always feel like others have said-peace and they are calling to me, rising high up in the sky, surrounding you with their majesty.

Neither one. I'd rather be in a city visiting museums, etc or, better yet, just at home for my vacation from work.

Mountains. Growing up in SF near the water was ok, we had fun body surfing as kids but it was usually cold and windy.
Couldn't wait till we went on vacation to Lake Tahoe in the mountains. We'd stay at a friend's cabin and can still smell the pine trees.
We're now in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains and couldn't be happier Planted lots of pine trees too.

Don't you think it is amazing how some always long for and dream about living at the beach and some always the mountains?And feel like they have come home at one or the other.
It must be something we are born with.
I can't imagine anyone not loving the ocean. Except my grandmother hated the beach-the sand, the heat. And when we would open our windows to fall asleep with the waves she would always say about the ocean: "I wish it would just keep still just for a minute!" lol!

I'm 20 minutes from the wonderful beaches on Sanibal Island. Would love to spend some time at a place like Lake Placid in the Aderondack's in NY. In fact DH says if we had the re$ource$, we'd buy a summer home there.

Nice thread! We've been to the Grand Tetons numerous times over the years; it's a special place for us. Would love to live close to them and view them daily.

Beach girl all the way ! I have been to Virginia Beach, Myrtle beach and a beach in LA and loved them all ! I also visited the Mountains of Colorado during the winter. The snow was beautiful but not for me although we have our share of snow in the midwest. I know it sounds silly but although the flowers in the mountain picture are beautiful it makes me think of snakes hidden in the grass !

@Kachina624 They both look so beautiful. Maybe the beach in summer and the mountains in fall.

BEACH all the way! Prefer sand over dirt! Also prefer beautiful beaches along the east coast, especially the Jersey Shore.
Mountains are fine for skiing but that's it.
