California gas prices are already near six bucks a gallon last time I checked

Another fifty cents is insane,especially given the conditions of the roads

Comrade! the gas tax isn’t imposed so that roads can be repaired! It is there to improve public transportation, so desperately needed by the ‘uncared’.

My 50th high school reunion occurred on Sept 30, 2023 in San Diego. I drove down from Pocatello, ID in my F150. Before leaving San Diego, I topped up my tank. It was $6.899 per gallon for regular. The weather was bad, so I stopped at Beaver, UT to sleep at 8 PM. The weather was better and I completed the drive home to Idaho. Before returning to my driveway, I topped up my tank. I paid $3.259 per gallon for ethanol free regular. I don't miss San Diego. Too expensive and crowded. Aside from seeing my sister and classmates, my visit was very focused on the reunion. I was uncertain that I was up to the trip. In retrospect, I understand why I was feeling like crap. Undiagnosed cancer. Dealing with that now. One of my classmates who pushed the limits to attend the reunion passed just 2 weeks later.
