I’d ride a century to sit on the sand with a cold beer looking at that.

The view from my window right now. Today is hot and humid, or I would be on my bike right now. When it cools down later in the afternoon I'll ride out to Tokyo Bay for a steak and a beer. My wife and daughter are in Seoul this weekend, so I have the place to myself.

Is the Gulf of America in South America, Central America, or North America? Hard to tell from that photo, which looks more like the northern portion of the Gulf of Mexico.

When my elder son moved out, I repurposed his bedroom as the home office I never had and always wanted. The view out my big window is an avocado tree and my wife's extensive rose garden.
Around here, everyone prizes and pays dearly for that ocean view, but I can always walk our bike about a km to see that. The funniest example to me is a new extremely expensive house that was recently completed in my neighborhood. The east/street side is a sold wall of decorative rock facing, with only a front door cutout, while the west//ocean view side is all glass. With our hot season rapidly approaching, those folks are going to bake, with all glass facing the midday-to-setting sun, and no cross-ventilation.
