Yeah ocean is beautiful and I always record a few minutes of night waves crashing to listen after vacation is over and I'm stuck in KY. Hell I was in Daytona for the first day of summer ☀️ and had the entire beach from 10 to 1am not a soul to be seen. Miss it right now.

Well, if the Ocean is the beach in the Caribbean then that changes things. I was thinking outer banks. The thing is creatures exist in the ocean that can eat me and not even burp. I never had anything like that at Kentucky Lake. Although, there's probably catfish at the dam that could come close.

I have all at my finger tips. I have a heated pool and swim 12 months out of the year, my property backs up to a spring fed lake and the Gulf of Mexico is just a few miles away.

I prefer living on the coast. You get fresh seafood any time of the year and you get spectacular views, cloud formations and colors in the sky. Plus I was born and raised around it so it is home for me.

As a bonus I get to meet, greet and swim with the mermaids.

We live on a lake and it's great. Ocean you have storm serge to worry about plus gazillion dollar insurance premiums. Pools are a maintenance pain in the arse that you get tired of very quickly though they are good if you have kids. (we have pool, wife wanted it - I hate it).

To swim in?
Pool--no sand, no salt, no other creatures

To see?
I enjoy the other two.

With that said, pool.

Better odds of being struck by lightning that hit by a shark.

The biggest fear or caution living in Florida is lightning. We are taught from childhood to respect it and get out of it. I saw a man at worked killed by lightning and it is not a pretty sight.

Living in the Lightning Capital of The World will give you an education on the power of one bolt.
