How far do you live from the Lake?

It's about 155 miles from Providence to Exit 24 near Ashland. Trip meter usually says 111 when we reach the state liquor store rest stop in Hooksett. Can't wait to get up there in August!

74 miles, drive way to drive way. And I enjoy every one of them on my weekly Thursday night departures. Just 8 more weeks to go until opening.
When we closed last October, it seemed like it would be forever. But now, just 8 weeks. And with the Sox opening this Monday, the time should pass quickly.

70 miles if I don't follow the GPS's suggestion to get off at exit 20 and go all the way to Route 3. About 5 miles shorter if I do.

From Farmington CT to West Alton Marina (another 60 though if I start the meter at work before getting home!). But, we still made it up nearly every weekend from May through October last year...
