Sounds good. Why don't we have a barn raising right now?

As I have traveled I have found that gas prices are about $.50 more per gallon than in most places in the USA - California excluded. However, I have also noticed that Utah has maintained a better economy and thus maintained more of their pre-crisis driving attitude.

Geeze... I wish 1.89 was up here... it is around $2.49 here and that is after it has dropped from over $4.00 That makes me a little sick to my stomach actually.... I spent $95 to fill up the tank in my van before the prices started to go down...

It's still about $2.70 here. We're higher than most places still. Can't complain too much though, at least it's coming down.
