That's true. I do remember it taking like an hour and a half to get from Victorville to Santa Monica.

Since I don't ski:
Mountains in summer.
Beaches in late fall through early spring.
Hate beaches in the US mainland. Best experience I have had was visiting beaches in Vieques, island in Puerto Rico. It was April so not very crowded and there are several beaches on a rough dirt road (but easy to get to with SUV) that were pretty empty.
There were literally 5 people on the beach other than my family.

Too soon old, too late smart
Guess am spoiled. Live 90 minutes from the Pacific, and six hours from Lake Tahoe. Have had 32 consecutive golf tournaments at Tahoe, in the piney woods, at high elevations, great smelling pine trees. Always a treat. Go to town called Cambria couple of times a year, sit on porch drink coffee or wine and watch the ocean crash on the beach (also a board walk where wife and I take leisurely walks). Both are terrific. go to Hawaii every other year, and snorkel at least three times. Vacation in Cancun, Cabo, and St. Maartens, and spend time on the beach. Guess it depends on one's mood, and what one is up for. It's all good.

As long as it is quiet.
I was at Hatteras last summer and must have been at the right spot because there were only a handful of people with me in that section of the beach in late June.
Then hiking in Crested Butte in the fall. I wouldn’t say the trails were crowded, but there was almost always someone else you could see.

Dubs, have taken three of the four (?) tours there. Try to envision all the movie stars that sailed up the coast to partake in Willie Randolph's parties. Pool is to die for, and the jar of French's mustard on the tremendous dining table is a hoot. (am more a Grey Poupon guy myself). Actually, when we get to Cambria, we head up to that area for a wine tasting and lunch. Sit out on a cliff overlooking the ocean, sip some wine and munch sandwich, and the stress and cares wash away with the waves. Tasting room is situated a tad north of the pier, where the boats tied up, etc. Probably a bit more than you bargained for, but yeah, we know the place. PS, rooms in the area are more cost effective than down in Cambria, and it's a great seaside drive up to Big Sur and Monterey/Carmel if you're on a road trip (except for the floods that wash out the roads - which are now closed currently).
