Hmmm ...never really thought to check flights out of Hartford. I could make that work!
I think they have one flight out of Hartford a day at 6pm to Dublin, then you can connect to places all over Europe. It's a lot easier for us to get to and the parking at BDL is so much cheaper than BOS.
 
I voted 75% lake and large lakes. Spent part of my childhood a 5 minute walk from Lake Erie. Currently vacationing at a house on Green Bay. I find the Great Lakes a peaceful relaxing retreat. Less so the ocean, especially with high waves.
 

Between Lake Huron, the Atlantic Ocean and the Gulf of Mexico, the 3 main places I go I much prefer the Gulf of Mexico.
 
I’ve definitely spent more time at the ocean so I’ll say 75% ocean. I’ve been in lakes though and enjoy those too as long as they are clean.
 
I would always choose ocean first. But we've had wonderful times camping and waterskiing on bigger lakes -- Lake Mead, Lake Powell.
