Urban, rural, ocean-side?

As we were driving back from sunny but crowded California, we were wondering if it would make sense for us to own a second-home there. Once more, we’ve been a bit ruffled by the high-pace of living, the traffic and all the congestion. Do we need that kind of lifestyle at our age or are we much better off focusing on Park City which remains a fantastic place and a perfect compromise between urban and rural lifestyles. Sure, being close to the ocean would have its benefits, but we don’t like to get wet, and after contemplating the water for a few hours or perhaps a day, we’ve got our fix for a few months… So does it make sense to complicate our life a bit more in order to grab a place near the ocean, whether it’s in the city or by the beach? For the moment, we aren’t so sure and are still on the fence…
