Good call, but one day should cut it this time of year.

It takes me an hour to get to work everyday in Boston, and it's 16 miles away. It took 2 hours one way to drive 40 miles to NH for a Cigar Store today, and 1.5 hours on the way home. And that's on the interstate.

Boston driving is awful.

JP can be a nasty place in some parts. The Sam Adams tour is 100% Free, and you get a free glass at the end. They also have a trolly that takes you to the oldest Irish Bar in America (The bar in Mystic River), and if you get a Sam Adams, you get one of their tall glasses. The Bar is called "O'Doyles", and is a treat in itself. The Pizza and Wings are killer.

Portland Maine has a good art museum downtown. Winslow Homer exhibit going now. Also Street & Co on the waterfront serves excellent seafood and is walking distance from the museum.
