Yep, another short week gone by. I had to make a couple of short trips this morning, Costco and the grocery, and I couldn't believe the traffic. I wondered if there had been an accident or a lane closure somewhere, but it's just plain old everyday traffic. Costco's gas price has gone down 3 cents to $3.14/gal. since I last topped off. I have almost a full tank but I'm hoping it drops a few more cents by the time I can once again top off a quarter of a tank. Right now I'm just waiting for the cap in trade tax to kick in. At least Gov. Brown is letting us enjoy the decent fuel prices for a couple of weeks.
When I left home the air was hazy and everything looked weird. Driving home the beautiful sun was shining, and visibility seemed to be unlimited!
I finally got the two "Best in Tent Camping" books I ordered - Pennsylvania arrived 3 days ago and Montana came in the mail today. As I opened the Montana book I immediately came to what seems like the perfect campground for tenters, and I'm putting it on my list, in fact, I've already used my yellow hi-lighter on it! I'm afraid early April will be too cold for camping in Montana, so maybe I will try it on my way back. Both books were purchased "Used" for $1 each plus $4 S&H. It's a good deal to me since the new books cost around $15, and both are in pristine condition.
I'm working out this evening which always does me good, both mentally and physically. Have a great weekend!

I'm doing marginally better this morning - only slept a half hour later than normal. For all the napping and lethargy of yesterday I slept so well. This is the gloomiest day yet - a foggy mist still keeping the streets wet. I made...

When hearing that some of y'all are in the 20's I feel a little guilty to be sitting in a balmy 48! We will be in the 60's for the next 10 days, and I can deal with it but I have to dress warm. It was terribly foggy in the Sacramento...

Yesterday (Sunday) I drove to Costco to fill up the gas tank. Local news stories say that gas will go up 10 cents/gal. or more in January because of "Cap in Trade", whatever the heck that is. I think it's a way for the states to charge...

But it's not as hot as it's going to get later in the week. My fuel tank was pretty low so I got an early start to Costco. The gas cost a lot more than the last time I fueled up, which was around the 1st of April before my hernia repair. ...

I was almost out of beer so I made a trip to Target this morning. They have a 30 pack that used to cost $15, but has now gone up 50 cents. Add the CRV charge onto that and it's still a good price. I also bought a tube of Bengay that supposedly...
