210 miles to Maine or PI, 225 to Salmon River, 1/2 mile to Otter Creek.
Where I sleep all depends but usually it's alone = truck but mostly naps cause I can't sleep well in the light.

Central Ma carpool to the canal?
Takes about 1hr and 20 minutes from Sterling. Used to go twice every weekend down to the canal for the red eye express but now I'm lucky to go twice a month. Can't do the drive + fish out on the rocks for 4 hours or more all in the same night anymore.

freshwater 5-20 min (no sleep needed)
saltwater 2-4 depending on where I go (HMMM...I must drive slower or make more stops that Rappin Mikey??!!!!) 
trips around the two hour mark I will drive home or crash (sleep) in 4runner. the long haul(4 hours) will camp for the weekend or if travelling alone will crash (sleep) in 4runner.
sometimes there is an occasional motel stay |

1 hour to my favorite "local" spot up on the NorthShore
2.5 hours to the cape
2.25 hours to rhode island
every trip has been worth it so far.
