Yes, beach for me!

Keep it. I want my snow.

Ever considered a move to Antartica Melody? I would have said the Artic, but global warming might mean there's not enough snow there for you.

beach > snow

to right, but I can say that since I have never been to the snow.

I haven't been to the beach at all this summer

Yup. Not that long ago there was a news article floating around about the job posting for Postmaster at a British post office at some port in Antarctica. Was for November to March (summer), no internet, questionable electricity, no running water, no time off, and 4000 penguins in your yard. It was intriguing. The biggest drawback for me would be no internet, totally cuts off a lot of the world.

Been totally cut-off for a while sounds good to me, maybe not for 4 months, could handle 4 weeks.

Yeah, a few weeks at a time is alright, but months at a time is not. They have phone service at least, probably by satellite. Too much can change in that amount of time, especially with an aging parent.

Being stuck in one location, with only a few people, is not an easy thing for me. Would be easy enough to take a walk and be totally alone, but you still have to go back home and live with people that you may not get along with that great.

Huntington Beach and Santa Barbara have excellent off-leash dog beaches. In fact, Santa Barbara is probably the most dog-friendly place I've ever been. We like to visit Carlsbad, CA, once in while; more of a small town feel. We enjoy Carmel, Monterey, Laguna. Photography wise, I love the Big Sur area.

I've heard of many places called Long Beach, but never a Short Beach... I suppose there has to be one somewhere.

Kinda like Bridle Veil Falls, I think I have heard of at least 50 of these

While the beach is great, all the fun you can have in snow wins out for me.

Very true, there are lots of great beaches to visit, same with in Oregon. I have not seen a lot of the Washington shoreline, and actually, only a bit of BC too.
