I live a bit inland in the mid-Atlantic region with one state between us and the big-wide Atlantic Ocean. The one time I got to see the beach (called "the shore" on the east coast, and "the beach" on the west coast) was when I was stationed in Virginia in the Navy.
My first visit to the sands surprised me, as I didn't expect to see the little lifeforms skittering to and fro, and can still almost feel the shifting sands with every step I took. Here we have little forested hills on the edge of town that I used to love hiking in, while enjoying the shade, peace and solitude that only nature can bring. Life is good.

Are you saying you have only seen the beach and the ocean once?
I know there are many more beautiful places on our planet, and I love to hike and wander around as well.but for me nothing beats the big water. At every season :)
Only while I was in the Navy. I actually made many trips to the "shore" when stationed there to relax, but my area now is like 100 miles inland from the coast so I never get to see it as it's a 6 hour drive (through heavy traffic) from my location. Believe it or not, I actually know a few people who were born and have never left their state during their lives. Strange isn't it? Seems we're a big enough country that you can have everything you need in one place without leaving it. Recall that over 40% of Americans don't have a passport. In fact, I'm the only one in my family who does...
