You won't miss the government run alcohol stores in New Hampshire if
you're on I-95. Both exits have the Alcohol Store right on the Exit
signs. It's unreal.

I know about NH. Last year we were looking for THE package store on
Conway.
I am used to Florida where they sell liquor at Walgreens and southern
Md where they will STILL sell you a mixed drink at the drive through.
(a fountain drink with ice and a miniature). If they know you they
will mix it in the window.

I was astonished when we lived to florida to see drive through windows
at the larger liquor stores. These and the "gentlemen's clubs" in Jax
were the constant targets of the religious nutcases. There was a
successfully titty bar on Blanding Boulevard and there were almost
always "church people" across the street carrying picket signs
protesting it. They brought their kids with them. By now, those kids
probably are patronizing the titty bar, if it is still there.

The drive thrus are gone in SW Florida. They still have one right up
the road from my niece in Ridge Md.

Once you get to the end of Three Notch Road, you've gone back in time.
Way back. It's very country...even for southern southern Maryland.
