I know! You described it perfectly! I think it was named after whoever discovered it, but sheesh.
I’ve always wanted to live on the ocean. Or any body of water for that matter.
When I was little I always wanted to live on the beach too. Then I see all the storms that happen all the time and the waves that crash so far up, often into beach houses. The salty air also does a number on paintjobs and metal. So no, I wouldn’t want to live on the beach after all. But a <i>lake</i>, now that would be heavenly.
I love the beach, ocean or lake. I love the smell of ocean/lake air, the sound of the waves and the sea gulls, sand between my toes, watching sail boats,walking out on the break wall, and skipping rocks. I could totally live by the water. Now swimming in it, no freaking way, there are fish in there.
I’m with ya there Zoe. I love being near, on or around water, but hate actually being IN the water. I don’t even like getting my hands wet if I can help it. If there are no gloves, I won’t do the dishes.
Oh I’d rather be at the beach right now. Here in Brighton we have a lot of pubs right on the seafront. Plus it’s a peble beach. No sand!
I love the ocean. The Oregon Beach is it’s own entity. California beaches are pretty and sunny, but the Oregon coastline is just gorgeous.
I love it there, even in the windy sandstorm.
(awww. Your word verification called me “Muffin”. Right back atcha, cupcake!)
I like the beach, and swimming in it too. I totally hate the wad of sand that form on my the crotch part of my bathing suit. I hate that!!
I love the beach and the smell of the ocean is one of my favorite smells.
I swear, when I retire I am retiring to a beach somewhere....
I don’t live near an ocean (and have not been to either coast, yet) but I do live near one of the great lakes-and whilst I enjoy the looks and sounds-no freakin way will I ever set toes in there again. Fish and squirmy plant life are the least of my worries.
"Squirmy plant life” LOL! Good description!
I have that love the ocean not the beach thing in my 100 things.
and for the same reasons. that and with a complexion like mine, there is no fucking way I’m going anywhere near full sun.
I am with you on the whole sand/salt water thing. You should see me on the beach in PTown - i have to have my ‘sand-free’ blanket under my extra large beach umbrella, with beach chair sporting drink holder with side table. i may as well be in my living room.
Miss Ann, people who sun themselves on purpose are just plain silly.
Weese, LOL! Did you have the TV there with you too? Yeah, I like to take all the conveniences of home with me too. I may as well stay home.
I heart you!
Seriously, I love the ocean and going out on boats and stuff, but I can’t stand the beach. Coming from Hawaii, I get strange looks when I tell people that.
I mean, just because I was trapped on an Island for 20-someodd years, doesn’t mean I have to like the beach. In fact, being stranded there for most my life should give me a very valid reason for hating the beach.
*k. getting off my soapbox now* 
I really cant stand the beach, but I adore the ocean. Sitting out on a pier just before a storm. It doesnt get any better than that. Just hearing the waves crashing against the shore and listening to the birds. Man I need to make a trip to the shore. I dont live anywhere near it.
