Here's a question, for those of us who live away from the lake. Have you ever "commuted" back and forth?

This week, I needed to stay out of my home in MA (for some construction). So, instead of spending $$$ on a hotel for a few days, I have been driving back and forth from Methuen, MA to Moultonboro. I calculated that the gas for a week was cheaper than the hotel. The Drive after work isn't TOO bad, a little slow through exit 5 (93) but still nothing compared to the 6 hours I did to NY for vacation! Anyway, the ride to work in the morning was a breeze. Granted the distance/time, but it was actually more enjoyable than my white-knuckle drive on 495 in the mornings. One more trip up tonight, then staying until Monday AM.....
