Unofficial State Moto: "Drink Safely"
You have to love a state this brash. On I-93 just south of Concord, NH, we have State liquor stores on both the northbound and southbound sides of the road. Whose brilliant idea was this? First off, I-93 is a toll road, so the State is already making money off of the folks driving on this stretch of highway. But, we have no shame in trying to make more money from drivers, even if the means to the end (think about that statement) encourages people who drive to drink. OK. While it's not an absolute condoning of 'Drinking and Driving', the location of these State run liquor stores has always irked me. It's just wrong.

Where we vacation in the Outer Banks, they have the Brew Thru. Yes, it is what it sounds like, a drive through liquor store... so you don't even have to try and get out of your car to buy a drink, before getting back on the highway.
I understand NH's strategy. Liquor taxes in Maine are so much higher than in NH that we always stopped there, along with thousands of other people on our way to "Vacationland" to stock up for our trip. No drinking during driving was involved, we just knew that was the place to stock up our cabin.
