Happy Thanksgiving. The trip home from grandma's house is going to cost a LITTLE more

Appreciate the under $2 gas guys. Here in the Great White North (Anchorage, AK), we're celebrating because regular gas has gotten down to $2.60. It was close to $4.70 mid-summer...:icon_smile_blackeye

Just a couple months ago I was paying $4.10. I went from filling up my tank for $45 to $20 so i'm not complaining!!!

And guess what guys, they have SPRINT car racing up in the Great White North. But, I'll let Bruce tell you about it.

Yes Virginia, there are sprint cars in Alaska. They're wanged 360s and 300s (carb/gas) but they're here. Here's proof-I took these earlier in the year. Granted, it ain't exactly Bloomington or Haubstadt (both of which I miss very much), but the scenery on the ride home is pretty cool!

I wonder if any of those Alaskan' Cruises port up to any of these tracks? I may just let the wife think she talked me into it...

Hasn't got below $1.79 here in the land of cheese. But i did fill up the tank for $22 so that leaves me with more money for BEER!!! :wink

Depends on where you are in NC. I paid 1.59 yesterday in the Burlington area.
