Grew up in Orange County and loved it.

Now live in Oregon and when we go back to visit the ONLY thing I truly miss is the beach and sometimes get bummed my kids won't grow up going to the beach every day in the summer like I did.

Actually enjoy having some seasons in Oregon but obviously could get very used to spring, summer, spring, summer, repeat.

Traffic is what finally drove me away from SC ... and that was 20+ years ago.
