A recent drop in gas prices caught us off guard but with a pleasant welcoming indeed. Ever since the steep and drastic increase back on Labor Day in 2005 when it reached $3.07 per gallon we had little hope of ever seeing a return to reason. However, recent trends are indicating some hope for us gas consumers. I remember the day back in February of 2000 when I refused to pay $1.65 just because of an unfair increase due to being the last gas station between Yuma, Arizona and the next station in California 65 miles away. Tonight I was ecstatic to pay $1.93, funny how life is measured by your current perspective.

I don't know if you remember...
When we were at Camp Lejeune, a "Sprint" gas station opened up at the gate entrance off of Piney Green Road...
Gas Price: $0.79 gal
Karina and I also took a trip to South Carolina during the same time period and paid $0.73 gal at Myrtle Beach.
...."Those were the days..."
