Fuel prices rising again

Fuel prices rising again
I heard on CBS this morning that "fuel prices have risen for 32 straight days",
per their report. They were talking gas of course, which has indeed fluctuated
pretty much from day to day around here during that period.

Diesel on the other hand had been fairly stable around here at about $3.75 until
this past week. During that time, the nearest Valero station to my house went
3.79, 3.89, 3.97, 4.04 to 4.09 just on Saturday. Kind of some dramatic bumps in
there. And here I was just reading about how the US is nearly self sufficent on
oil now due to increased production. Although export news says we are exporting
refined fuels now at a high level.

Good thing we didn't buy these things for fuel mileage!

Nobody ever said energy self-sufficiency would be inexpensive.

Fuel prices rising again
Bob,

Mighty impressive to have internet access in Stone Cabin, AZ!

Fuel is a different kind of 'priceless' there, isn't it?

Are you boondocking and doing some off-roading in the Wildlife Refuge?

Enjoy your stay.

Fuel prices rising again
I've lived in Arizona for over 60 years and I don't think I ever heard of "Stone Cabin" before now. Looked it up on Map Quest and I found a Dam, a Mountain, a Canyon, a Wash, a Box Spring and a Gap Wash, scattered all over the state. Soooo, I still don't know where the heck it is.

Fuel prices rising again
Internet and cell phone have always been good here. Strange, because we are 30 miles from the nearest fuel, water, or provisions. One of our favorite places, regardless.



We’ve been in boondock mode since around the first of the year. Have run almost every mile of legal road in the Kofa refuge. It always amazes! Almost ran the Jeep out of fuel. Would have had to tow it to Q with the bus Smile Made to Q in the Jeep with maybe 20 miles to spare.



Cheers,

OKI, since you said KOFA Range that narrows it down, according to Map Quest that would be Stone Cabin Gap Wash. You never get too old to learn, and I have learned something new for today.

That’s it. Didn’t realize it had a Web site presence. No wonder its so crowded up here. On day there were 5-6 rigs crowded into a couple sections of land. One got so close I could almost hear their genset running! Smile
