Living in New England I do not need to choose thankfully, but if I had to most of you know that I always prefer to head towards the sea.
The mountains call to me in autumn for the foliage, and very seldom when the snow flies, so from September until May 30th the beach is where I am, as the tourists have left.
They can have June, July and August and all the bugs, beeping horns and nasty behavior played out daily along our 18-mile section of the Atlantic Ocean. I will hit the beach and find all they lost late at night or from Labor Day on.
Happy Thanksgiving

I love both the ocean and the mountains, too, but not with crowds!
Amen and the filth they leave in their wake is disgusting.
:(
I love both too but I don’t have a metal detector, just a camera.
You catch amazing things with yours.
What a beautiful spot to “up and go” on a whim! You’re so blessed!
Thanks, it truly is.
New Hampshire is beautiful especially after the crowds leave. 😊
Sure is.
