Being from the NW I have both. For the sake of this poll I'm going with mountains. Mountains with a nice forest, various lakes, rivers, streams, wildlife to play around with. Oh and while I'm at it I'd like to throw in a log cabin.
I'm wondering if most people think of "ocean" as a nice warm tropical vacation spot full of clean sand and clear blue water... as opposed to a chilly, smelly place you don't want to run around barefoot for fear of stepping on something slimy or sharp. Whoops did I just let out the fact that I'm not a fan of the ocean?
I've never been a big ocean fan tropical or not. Just too flat and bland for me.
