Ever "commuted" to the lake?

CARDER LANE · 09-24-2011, 04:50 AM

I commute from Meredith to Fort Devens almost every week day.

During the summer months I commute from Laconia to Bedford Ma. Its a pleasant drive in as long as I leave early and don't hit too much traffic down along Rt 3 in Ma.
The ride home is usually great as was previously stated the farther north I get the lower the stress level is. Something about the Lakes region is simply awesome!!

I have a friend to lives in Alton and commutes to Harvard U 5 days a week. He is 75 years old, putting just under 200 miles a day on the car. Asked him why he doesn't retire, and he said he can't afford to

.

He does call out with bad snow forecasted. He travels rte 11 to the Spaulding and I 95. In Saugus, he works his way over to Wellington Cir and then into Cambridge. Up at 4 AM and not home until 430 to 500. Better him than me!

I used to commute 5 days a week for 2 years. This was in the late 70's when traffic was not a problem. I traveled 106, 393, 93 to Rte 3. The only thing I hated was the toll booths. The 106 travel during the foliage makes me smile.

My husband has been commuting for the last 10 years from Long Island, New York to the lake every week. He drives up on Thursday afternoons and goes back to NY on Sunday afternoon or Monday mornings. The only complaint he has is that he HATES driving south (never wants to leave)!

Does anyone have any suggestions of what kind of business you would like to have in Moultonborough, Center Harbor, or Meredith? When we get the right answer he will never have to go SOUTH except to visit some family.

How about one that brings the Lake to you where ever you are?

The more bull !@#$% I get at my tax bill in Mass I'm thinking about it more and more. But if I make up the difference in gas what's the difference?
