Some people love the rocky shores and cold, dark waters of New England; some like the cold, pounding surf of California. Fine - à chacun son goût. But if I were choosing a beach to lie out on - a merely academic point at this stage of life - I would choose to be beside the warm, blue-green waters of the Gulf of Mexico.
This live cam shows the sugar-white sands and endless vista of what has latterly been called the Emerald Coast. My family stayed on the beach at Destin once, in the summer of 1963 - sixty years ago! - when there was but one motel, and nothing else for many miles but sand dunes and sea oats. It was lovely - I've never forgotten.
