\"Gas
\nToday I needed to be in Boise for a meeting at 1:30 p.m. with the State Board of Education. The forecast was for snow and bad roads today and it started to snow as I was leaving the house at about 8 this morning. The roads going to Boise were pretty slick in some spots and completely dry in others. Coming home was no problem at all. Four and a half hours going over, three and a half coming back. All for a 90-minute meeting that hopefully something will come out of.<\/p>\n

I stopped for gas at the Mountain Home exit on I-86. The Pilot station had gas for $2.97. Directly across the street (and I mean directly across), the Chevron station’s price was $3.14. Seventeen cents difference … or about $1.87 difference on the eleven gallons of gas I bought (at the Pilot station). The odd thing was that people were filling their cars up over at the Chevron station. Why? Inquiring minds want to know….<\/p>\n

On another note, the oft-rescheduled Salt Lake City Podcamp<\/a> will be held on March 15th. Looks to be a good event and worth attending. Signup<\/a> available as well … click on the link!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
