Gas prices yesterday in Mobile, Al well under $1.90 a gallon. Some stations pushing toward $1.80. What a great time to drive! Pensacola, Fl is running about $2.10 in some areas of town. Fl's gas tax is 15 cents higher than Al. Winter visitors will have pleasant surprises in their costs this Winter.

I filled up my car for $1.769 at Sam's Club in Longmont, CO last Weds. It was 80 deg which was a new record for Denver. However the next day we had our first snowfall and this morning its 18 deg.

In NS this morning before Lorraine headed out for a walk....64*F and gas is
running just under a dollar a litre. It won't last forever, but in the
meantime, it's tempting to Stay North...for a while anyway!

I filled up for $1.779 a few days ago in NW Indiana. Yesterday I filled up again near Detroit for $1.809. I did see a lot of places across Michigan at $2.039 with 1.999 in SW Michigan.

I usually fill up every 400 miles or so in my Colorado. So I haven't looked at Indiana prices in a few days.

I had a nice afternoon with the GMCers at the SE MI and N. Ohio get-together yesterday in spite of all of the very high winds and snow in western MI.

At least two of us there were from Indiana.

When I was a kid we always wished for snow by Thanksgiving but usually it was at least Christmas. One year on Dec 26th we took out the Jet-skis when temps were in the 70's.

No snow here yet but we are hoping for it.

Tom,

Downunder they've dropped a lot as well!

Refilled my Mazda CX-5 at Costco for $1.11 a liter which converts to:

1.11 x 3.785 = $4.20 AUD

$4.20 AUD / 1.363 = $3.08 USD per Gallon

Where are you going?

We have a bunch of unhappy USA voters that want to move to Canada. Watch out for all of the oncoming traffic if you are coming this way.

They just said on Chicago news that we had 11.2 inches of snow on this date last year.

Temperature is only suppose to be middle to high 40's F. this week.

Yeah, maybe they can blame trump for the snow, too. If Canada knows what is
good for them, they can build a wall to keep em out. (Grin)
