Road trip to New Hampshire

Yeah I said Maine before, but technically we’re staying in NH. Hubby is working in Maine, we’re on the state line. So anyway, here’s a recap:

Virginia: The Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel is ridiculously huge. The boys were very impressed by it. The Eastern Shore, not so much. Boring drive.

Maryland: That stretch of MD is also not an interesting drive.

Delaware: Rest stops suck. Only exit in one direction? Fail. We had to drive 5 miles in the wrong direction and pay a toll to turn around. Not cool, Delaware.

New Jersey: I may be biased in favor of Jersey because my mother was born and raised there, but the Turnpike was a lovely drive. People were not unreasonably assy and we made good time – but then…

New York: Could it suck any worse to drive over the George Washington Bridge? Even at 10pm, it took an hour to get over a 3 mile bridge. People driving like assholes, roads in horrific repair despite the hefty toll. I had to repress most of the experience, but I did vow to avoid it on the way home. Somehow.

Connecticut: Also sucky and full of assholes.

Massachusetts: Refreshingly unremarkable after CT and NY.

New Hampshire: Seems quite nice. Going out to explore – and shop for a good winter coat for me, I can never find one in Virginia, and boots for the boys, which I can also never find.
