I pumper the gas, checked the oil and washed the windshield for 13 cent a gallon at J C Faw's station on 2nd street hill. The station at the bottom of the hill was selling gas for 11 cent.

Gas is cheap here. Take that family vacation to Mount Rushmore. Seriously, though you will need three or four tanks just for Nebraska on the interstate. Just go! Just go! Wherever you want. Do not worry about gas prices.

Never mind.

When I was first driving it was 25-35 cents.

Historically it is not cheap here. It has been as much as $3.50 but just for a couple years. Most of my life it has been under two dollars.

Sorry, that would be Ubon.

But we digress. I was just so weirded out about folks complaining of expensive fuel. Gas is so cheap here! Be grateful!

I have been to Asia. I was in Thailand for about a year and I visited Japan. I spent a week in Bangkok but most of my time I was in Uban.

Sorry.

When I was married, we would travel and stay with friends a lot. I don't have those friends anymore. In fact, I don't really want those friends anymore. They were nice people but the only thing we had in common was my X.

Clearly you have never been to Asia.

There are no Hyatt's on the Nebraska interstate.

I use to fly to places and get a rent a car. I never actually drove much except in Texas. If you go any where in Texas, you have to drive a long way. I can't afford to do that now.

I remember when I went across the northern prairies. Good God, miles and miles of nothing! Then all of a sudden there is Mount Rushmore! How many tanks of gas? Lots and lots! Ever gone west in Nebraska? Nebraska never freaking ends.

Gas is not cheap but it is not that bad. It is hotel and motel rent that is costly. Almost any place I want to go, it is over $200 a night.

A road trip sounds good. End of the month I am going camping on New River. Just going to lay around, watch the river and eat.

I have a girlfriend who just relocated with her new husband to Georgia. Their plan is to rubber tramp it all over the USA. So cheap now! Stop complaining! Gas is so cheap!

Gas is over 6 dollars USD in other places. Maybe stop complaining? Take advantage of the low price and do a road trip! Seriously. Put the kids in the back seat and go! Where would you go if you could? Plan your vacation!
