Write now Article Tools

The beach or the mountains for my vacation let me think about it;well that's 5 seconds of my life gone it did not take long to come to the conclusion that for me it is the mountains ,well lets face it where else can you have so much fun ,the sheer beauty of the scenery is good for me then you have all the wild life that comes with mountains and dont forget the fresh air.

Then there is the peace that comes with mountains so quite so serene ,then you go just around the next bend and you come across a rushing river that thunders down the mountain over boulders the crescendo can be deafening ,then peace and quite again around the next bend.

You can hike till your boots wear out and all the time the scenery will change every time you go on to the next trail ,and were does the fun side come in well you never know what is a round the next corner there might be a bear there might be a moose an elk .

Now let me think about a beach vacation well the sand will get in your food the sun will bake you ,and what about that great looking scenery well its OK if you like looking at the sea and all those beach towels and the noise of all those screaming kids ,its not that i am a killjoy but i go on vacation for a bit of peace and quite and that is what i get when i go on a mountain vacation a chance to get back to sanity and to get i suppose nearer to my god ,and were else can you do this yes in the mountains .
