    No mountain trip for me this summer. Sigh....
    I'll have to settle for the "mountains" of Wisconsin (i.e. not mountains).

    Hey, the Dells are very nice. Once you get past the tourist traps.

    Door County too.

    For me it is the ocean. I live in a coastal city on an island and can't imagine living more than a few minutes away from the ocean

    ocean vs. mountain - the classic choice. what i remember about being a boy in the seattle area is that you got both. i live now on the jersey shore, love it and the ocean, but do miss real mountains.
    Today from Port Angeles (west of Seattle) Mountains and ocean from the same spot

    been there (well, the area, if not exactly that spot, lol)! great locale.

    Our plan has always been move closer to the mountains for years. Finally settled in to our new home early last month. Mountain views out the back, the side and the front. Right up on the Catalinas. Now, the Mountain Lions, the Javalinas, the Coyotes, Poison Toads and Rattlers have freaked us out a bit, but we're pretty happy about the decision!

    I have had a peace about me that I haven't felt in a while. I have a very high stress job/business. This has helped calm me down a bit!

    We do love the ocean too, but being 6 hours from San Diego helps.

    I'm having to move from hills/mountains (small ones) to Texas (been priced right out of CA....) and I'm VERY sad to lose the oceans and hills. I'm pretty sure I'll be back once I'm in a better financial position and/or don't feel the need to spend so much money on my other passion in life.....
