I could live Maine coast or Cape Code in Massachusetts for the summer months, then drop on down to Costa Rica's Central Valley for the winter months.

I guess because I come from Houston originally with humidity, I don't feel the "olive oil" thing you're talking about. I just love the constant breeze and the slam of the ocean on the walls of sand. It actually shakes the bungalow at times. No mosquitoes, no bugs - the breeze keeps them at bay!<br />Miss it - can't wait til January and February.....Babsofsanmiguelnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2289482511228853984.post-56671824420533687112012-07-28T12:26:41.618-05:002012-07-28T12:26:41.618-05:00Yes.

It often sounds like a combination of car crashes and drive-by shootings. The beach shakes so much, I missed two earthquakes while living in the first house. I rather liked it.Steve Cottonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2289482511228853984.post-39678184329540014552012-07-28T11:56:43.099-05:002012-07-28T11:56:43.099-05:00Can you hear the ocean surf?Can you hear the ocean surf?Mommy with Commuter Husbandhttp://commuterfamily.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2289482511228853984.post-75852624863041945012012-07-28T09:43:53.487-05:002012-07-28T09:43:53.487-05:00That would be a mirage.That would be a mirage.Andeannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2289482511228853984.post-996654824541024632012-07-28T09:24:46.259-05:002012-07-28T09:24:46.259-05:00Where I once expected horses, I will now anticipat...Where I once expected horses, I will now anticipate camels.Steve Cottonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2289482511228853984.post-7686341672310538052012-07-28T09:23:58.031-05:002012-07-28T09:23:58.031-05:00I always think of myself that way/ Simple and swe...I always think of myself that way/ Simple and sweet.Steve Cottonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2289482511228853984.post-75638299702205841442012-07-28T08:10:53.454-05:002012-07-28T08:10:53.454-05:00I miss staying right on the ocean when on vacation...I miss staying right on the ocean when on vacation.
