Do we have to choose?

I would prefer to keep both.

Happy trails,

Me too! I didn't vote because I couldn't choose "Both".

I paddle my kayak in the Puget Sound.

I row my Adirondack Guideboat in lakes.

Sometimes I switch.<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ -->

I would have been nice had there been more choices. I kind of like creeks
myself. Swamps are ok too.

Sounds like an excellent plan for Nader fans. Vote once for Nader to
satisfy your conscience, and once for Kerry to facilitate a regime
change.

Rivers.... They lead to something. At a lake you are already there.

A lake usually leads to several rivers; a river usually leads to only one
lake... Smile<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ -->

Move to a place that has bigger lakes!

E.g. - the Great Lakes has more shoreline than the east, west and gulf
coasts of North America combined - over 17,000 km.

I already live on the coast of the Pacific. I don't consider the Great Lakes
as "Lakes." To me they are as much of an ocean as are oceans.

True, many rivers lead from some lakes, but sometimes the river out is less
fascinating!
