We (NH) can buy wine & beer at grocery stores, convenience stores, gas stations & walmart, but hard liquor can only be gotten from a state liquor store. Maine has 'authorized' liquor purchasing stations (otherwise known as Cumberland Farms gas station. Where I grew up in Mass, they had privately owned, state approved liquor stores, I'm not sure if they are still privately owned, or state run now, though

That's how it is where I come from too. I've gotten plenty of beer at convenience stores as a young person.

Same here as well.

Liquor stores are separate from grocery stores.

In just about every culture in the Northern Hemisphere, women are expected to perform their husbands/boyfriends favorite sex acts.

I’ll have to let my wife know.

And my birf day.

That was probably the longest night back in the day before smartphones. Happy Birthday pancake foot. An old Indian name that still stands the test of time.

Just loving Fun in the Sun here!

It's going to rain all day and into the night tomorrow. Rain! 60 degrees and rain. Ugh. Coulda been a hella snow storm.

It is. Its been a while since I've heard the snow plows rumbling by, I hear them now.

Do you ever go snowmobiling, Maggottyboo? Whenever I smell a gas/oil mix I am immediately taken back to a time that's long ago & far away.

I am on the west side of the state, where the sun is actually shining today, everything is green and I see no snow. I think I will go on a hike in search of....something. Fresh air.

It's a sunny day here and going to be in the low 80's on this Christmas day!


(We're having our out of state daughter, grandson, & SIL and a few out of town friends coming over here for Christmas dinner today! Yeah, Lots to do, gotta get going!)

I used to go quite a bit 7-8 years ago when my sister lived around here. She would drive like a nutcase I was cautious and loved going to the bonfires in the middle of the woods.
