Hey Sedro......can you say Bellingham? Just finished a 6 month job down in Marysville, so we've probably passed each other on I-5.

Unhappy

I was talking to my dad in SW Minnesota the other day and he said that the farmers were saying that it was cheaper to fill the tractor at the town pump than to get ag diesel delivered to the farm. Don't know if it was a delivery fuel surcharge or what but ag diesel apparently is hitting the farmers up there. Anyone else experience that?

Filled up today.

26.26 gallons came out to $63 bucks even.

Selling at $2.399 per gallon.

Station owner was manning the counter and told me he is buying Diesel at $2.38 per gallon, selling at a huge profit of $.01 cent per gallon.

Totally relying on the 20oz Diet Coke and pack of gum I also bought to break even.

He is at a loss to explain why Diesel is so expensive, and why it hasn't dropped yet, as it always drops around the 1st of April.

Well I topped it off again today... 2.629 on the island. Next time I'll just wait till I'm heading back onto the mainland and pay only 2.579.

As for 4 a gallon... it'll suck, but people will pay for it... it sucks. If it weren't for the so crappy weather here in the PNW, I'd be on the bike a lot more.
