Gas Prices Set Record

[4RE KLR]

Dang,
I thought gas was up just for the holiday weekend but it is still up a few .02's this AM.

Did anyone see the article on Good Morning America this past week about the "Staycation" where people are staying at home for vacation this year and putting tents in the back yards?

Steve,

I never saw the article you mention, but most of the people that I talk to around here who normally went places for the weekend stayed home. And a real indication of just how many didn't come was Friday. Normally on a holiday weekend you can't get into the parking lot of the Sentry Market here and at 9:30 last Friday I went by and there were six cars in the lot and three of them belonged to workers at the store. So I went in to get a few things and there was two people shopping. Also I saw no boats parked along side the boulevard while people got goodies.
