I think it's terrible that we have overwhelming support for this but a single politician can just say no.

I know that a lot of bills died in the Senate but it's still the case that one person can just say no and that's it. That's in no way, shape, or form a representative government.

My daily commute is exit 11 to exit 18. 89 can be treacherous in the winter just like any any highway. If you’re a cautious winter driver you will be fine. Take and slow and increase following distance. Watch out for the tractor trailers, most of them will be drive too fast for conditions. NHDOT usually does a pretty good job, but they’re dealing with driver shortage this year. You might drive through 3 or 4 different kinds of weather all on your way into work. Also, you’ll noticed your gas mileage will go down by few MPG communing that stretch of 89. You go up and down, up and down, and up and then finally down into the valley. This is also part of the reason why 89 can be dangerous in the winter as well. Careful on that S curve at Exit 15. That’s probably the spot where I’ve seen the most accidents and I have almost gone off the road there too. The other night it took me over an hour to get home and usually my commute is 25/30 minutes. Just plan for longer commutes on days with shitty weather. Good luck!!

If this is on the 50 mph stretch between bluebird storage and Milton road, you might have a hard time finding someone who wants to develop there.

There’s two other very large lots that have been for sale for the better part of a decade. Maybe those land owners will cut you a deal to add to there’s?

Vacationers hate two things when it comes to skiing:

  1. Getting out of bed early.
  2. Single-digit and especially subzero temperatures.

Use these facts to your advantage if you want to get some serious skiing in. Find a mountain with a high speed quad and get all your runs in by 10am or 11am. Gear up if it’s going to be cold (like today), because that means you get bonus runs.
