When the nearest coast is 100 miles away, 70 of which is swamp; you don't get much pleasant sea breeze.
Supposedly true story from a travel agent:
"You booked me a room on the top floor of a hotel in Orlando, but I can't see the ocean! I want a room with an ocean view! I looked at a map, Florida is a very skinny state!"
I have a lot of respect for your swampy environment, bayous freak me out. I am a total tenderfoot in your territory. Just similar enough to home that I would pet the wrong snake.
