Westcoast Rally and the Price of Gas

jerrycritz,
Looking forward to seeing your home town for the first time since 1980. We will be at Curley RWL. Find me in the mix I'll buy you a drink. =)

Just a note the Curley Redwood Lodge is right across the street from our harbor. I work in the boat basin part time. The tusnami made a real mess, sunk 16 boats and tore out the docks. Lots of people hurting right now. But, we didn't lose any lives here. And everything will be back in place by the rally. I'm looking forward to meeting you folks.
I thought some idiot went down to see the tsunami and ended up on the darwin awards list?

Yeah. One guy in Klamath, about 20-miles south went to the beach and had an unscheduled and final swim. But, we don't consider him a local. I was wrong about the price....today it is $4.19.

Just got back from visiting the daughter and grandkids in Alaska. Gas is currently $4.099 for a gallon of 87 octane up there. Still planning on coming to the rally. Live large, I say.

I put $98.75 (3.88/Gal) in the Durango this morning. The most ever! Not even to $4 yet. Gotta love the Company gas card. ;)
