Gud AM.

When I left home last week, regular 87 octane gas was $2.55 a gallon and I filled up the tank. An hour's drive later, the price at Wood's Hole on Cape Cod was $2.89.

After a 25 minute boat ride to Martha's Vineyard, the price was $3.19. Total mileage from my house was 55 miles! Of course, the gas on the island is transported in trucks, just like everywhere else, but they have to pay $$ for the boat ride. Found out that it comes from the gas storage tanks about 4 miles from my house .... small world.

Yesterday the price was $3.39

I'm almost on empty. Excuse me ... my car is almost on empty!
