I found this little sign on our cruise and really wish I could hang it on my door year-round! Unfortunately I do not live close enough to a beach to be able to do that... but a girl can dream, can't she?
You could. Just twist Dad's arm a little to move away from the PNW. Of course, you'll have to deal with hurricanes, tornadoes, and/or volcanoes if you do, but the beach is pretty sweet!
