I paid $4.05 a gallon of gas today. And they say the price is still going up as we approach the Memorial Day long-weekend. I am just about speechless. I guess it is our time to pay our dues for having the privilege to own cars; for most of us, multiple cars. (Not Willie though, he appears to be the smart one, being car-less and all.) I never thought in my lifetime I would see gas this expensive. Now, I can’t imagine gas ever declining back to the $2.00 a gallon price. I don’t even want to know what gas prices are going to be like when Gracie is old enough to drive. Hopefully by then our country, economy and lives will no longer be dependent upon oil.
