I'd rather drive than fly too.

Gas here in Galena, IL was @ $3.63 when I checked it yesterday. Premium at $4.00 I believe. I have to fill up the tank today, so I'll find out if it'd gone up again... Seems to be climbing daily.

All prices are climbing around here and they wonder why the
population is moving. Friday, March 25, 2011 headline: "Region
continues to see people flee." The city population declined
by 31,338, recent census data shows. NO KIDDING! And none of
the politicians know why???? When thruway tolls nearly double
in less than 4 weeks time that's crazy! IMO!

They say New York States taxes are the highest in the country, and wonder why nobody wants to live here.

Oh my gosh; just saw gasoline at $3.79 per gallon. What a jump in just a few days. Criminy, it'll be at $4.00 a gallon before
ya know it.

Wow! I have been letting my tank run way down. Guess I need to fill it before we hit $4/gallon. (If I don't fill it soon, I will end up stranded somewhere...)

We don't let our tanks go completely empty. One of our vehicles can be $75. Ridiculous! Thankfully we only drive it three times/week, but the trip is 75 miles round trip.

Here regular is about $3.41, but we only use super unleaded. (DH used to make gas at a refinery and knows that it's the only gas that is best for our cars...90 octane or better, he says).

The prices I'm mentioning are for regular; that's all we use.
Except for the RV or going geocaching, we seldom drive more than
10 miles round trip. On vacation gas averaged $3.43; but yesterday when going to church, I saw signs for $3.79 at several
gas stations. That's quite a jump in less than a week's time.
I generally don't let the tank get below 1/2 full, especially in the wintertime; once in a while, it gets to the one-quarter mark. But not often.

The prices of a barrel of gas to use is now 105.00 per barrel and tonight on Bill O'Reilly, Donald Trump said by mid-summer, unless we do something fast, it will be $150.00 per barrel so imagine what pricesa will be then.

I listened to Donald Trump talk on O'Reilly the last couple nights. His ideas are very captivating. We need a hardnose businessman navigating our national ship.

Gotta wonder if D. Trump will run and if he'll get elected.
What a hoot!
