Everyone around here seems to be taking advantage of the fact that $1.65 still seems good and is charging more than they could.

' nice to get away from ($1.999) Pittsburgh, PA prices before I needed a fill-up in my van.

Just (simply) driving c. 30 miles south down I-79 and turning the corner westbound to I-70, the prices dropped a quarter...and (another 50 miles) they dropped another 30 cents.

I saw the same thing after the workshop:
Maryland: $1.99
Pennsylvania: $2.02
Ohio: $1.39

yup...a week ago was the so-called "official" presidents day...
I'm not sure which presidents are the ones to which the day refers, though.
...I would hope: none of these... :(

I went to work today.

The grocery store was open.

There was no riot at the bank.

I paid $2.19 for 93 Octane.

The economy must be robust!!

I went for my first motorcycle ride of the season today. Capped it off with salmon on the Traeger and steaks on the grill. I believe that there will still be a month of winter left for me here in the Pacific Northwet.

I desperately needed a new laptop, and have had to put it off for quite a while. I was finally able to get my new one this weekend. It's light years better than what I was using before!
