start changing over to summer blends?

I'm not complaining too much, though, since it's still half what it was not too long ago.

I am definitely feeling the effects of stress/despair related to the attacks in Brussels.

the switch over to the Summer fuel blend. Maybe it is just trickling down. My nephew said they finished the switch at his refinery a month ago when he was racking in the overtime. That is why he is at Disney World with his girls this week.

It is just like gas goes up now if there is even a hint of a hurricane in the Gulf of Mexico. Any excuse they can think of the raise prices.

they can find another excuse once the switch over is done prices will start falling again That was what the local news was saying, except for the unless they can find another excuse. Hopefully it will still be on the lower side. NC to CA should be a nice trip. Hope he is able to take his time and and enjoy the beauty along the way.

more at some stations than others. Our gasoline is anywhere from $2.04 to $2.19, not counting Costco and other discount situations.
