It's amazing how quickly gas prices go up for whatever reasons and how
slowly they come back down after the reasons have passed.

The little gas station Mrs.E. and I go to has the lowest gas prices in
the area. When other stations are at $2.25 a gallon, this one is at
$2.15. Run by super nice and friendly people too.

Shortly before Harvey, the price for a gallon had risen to $2.23. I
noticed this morning when driving by the station that the price has now
risen to $2.53 a gallon.


Here diesel was $2.49 a week ago. Three days ago a dime was added. Yesterday another dime. Haven't
looked today.
