Gas Prices

While this may not sound like alarming news to some, particularly those out on the West Coast, it certainly bothered me.

Yesterday, regular gasoline was selling in our local area for about $3.129 per gallon. On the way home from work today I noticed that same gas was selling for $3.369, a 24¢ increase in one day!

Some folks around here were saying gas prices weren't going to be all that bad around here this summer. But I have a feeling it will be around $4, with gas prices at the marinas around the lake will be closer to $4.50 per gallon.

It's going to be a quiet summer around here.

UPDATE 4/18/08: It was up another 3¢ to $3.399 per gallon today.
