In case you haven't heard, Georgia is just a tad bit short on gas. I've been out the past 2 days hoping to find a station that had some and managed to come across one, but didn't have hours to wait in the line that stretched all the way down the main road to get it.
I took my chances again today (Kent flies in from Milwaukee tonight and it would be nice if we could pick him up at the airport). I managed to find a station just around the corner that had some. I had to skip lunch, it took me over an hour and I paid $4.20 a gallon (by far the most I've ever paid for gas) but I got both vehicles filled to the brim!
Not exactly how I wanted to spend my Friday afternoon or Catherine's nap time, but I am certainly grateful to have gas!
Ummm, let me clarify......that is grateful to have gas in the cars, my digestive system is just fine! Didn't want to leave myself open on that one, my dad would jump all over that in the comment section!
Hooray for you! Unfortunately:-( I never got gas this morning. I hadn't had breakfast so by noon when I left your place I was in no condition to sit in line for 45 min. with three hungry kidlets. I have just over 1/4 tank so I am very nervous and sure ready for regular gas service!

Gas? You have gas? Oh . . . Good recovery. I most certainly would have jumped all over that one! Next time you need gas, though, ask me. I can give it to you for a lot less than $4.20!

Yep - I'm sitting on empty right now with no idea when I'll get more....kinda scary at this point!
