I ran out of appreciation for beaches and heat, completely out. Now I live in what the neighbors are calling "The Cabin on the Corner" in a doug fir forest with native ground cover taking over where a lawn used to be. I care for the vegetables and next year I'm putting in a greenhouse for orchids but the rest of it? God is in charge. However, if you've got a 7mm wetsuit we get some awesome surf at the Columbia bar.
I've seen the Pacific few times, never swam in it though. My one aunt and uncle and grandmother used to live in La Mirada, another uncle and aunt lived in Long Beach and yet another aunt and uncle lived in San Diego. I used to visit them summers when I was growing up. Plane travel was a whole lot different then.
Oh yeah, Mom Nature reclaims her own pretty quickly. i still maintain my own property, but now I have a guy mow my lawn and edge the walks and driveway. I'm gettin' too old for that shit.
