Gas prices...What are they in your neighborhood

[MorganGrayson]

$2.92/gall regular
$3.09/gall premium
$3.25/gall diesel

(Husband carries this info in his head.)

He's going to get my '79 VW Rabbitt Diesel back on the road because it gets twice the gas milage and cuts his monthly fuel bill in half. Right now, the poor thing is in the front yard, where the girls shoved it to make room for the U-Haul they rented to take the rest of the youngest's things up to the new apartment. Gives the place that nice Eastern Kentucky ambiance I love so much.

What is "mow"?

This is Eastern San Diego County. The amount of rain we had this rain season was the third highest in recorded history. We let all the green stuff just go for it. It was beautiful. Then...the heat hit...and it all died and became flat beige stuff. The usual cycle. We have a gorgeous California pepper in the front yard that poisons the ground underneath it, preventing any grass from growing. Had a most dandy crop of weeds this year, though. Didn't care, they were green.

Oh, yes. Southern California is "beige." Everything. The houses, the buildings, the ground...it's sickening. There was *one* tree that got fall color in my neighborhood. They cut it down...tree murderers!...when they put in a new fence. We wept. Other than that, all the trees are year round green.
