That's okay; half the time, neither can we. ;-)

When we talk about NHCTC, we always means the Portsmouth, NH campus, in the
Pease International Trade Port.

It depends on which location you want to attend. There are several GNHLUG
"chapters" around the state, and each chapter has local meetings once a month.
Then there are quarterly GNHLUG-wide meetings. At least, that's the theory.
We tend to improvise a lot. :-)
Anyway... You're about equidistant (as the crow flys) from Nashua and
Peterborough, which are two popular meeting locations. I'd say about 30 mins
to an hour to either, depending on traffic, weather, and how fast you like to
drive. :-)
The Monadnock LUG <http://www.monadlug.org> usually meets at the
Peterborough public library, with refreshments at a very nice local pub
afterwards. To get there, you want to head West on NH-101 until you hit
US-202. Turn right, go maybe 1/2 a mile, and you should see it on your left
(immediately after a sharp turn/intersection).
The Merrimac Valley LUG (I think that's what it's called) usually meets in
Nashua at Martha's Exchange, a nice local restaurant and microbrew, with space
upstairs they let us use for presentations. Directions are available online
for Illuminata, which is Martha's upstairs neighbor. See
<http://www.illuminata.com/contactus/contacts.html>.
For maps, and occasionally accurate driving directions, you might want to
try <http://www.mapquest.com>. I use it a lot myself, and find it useful.
