I have good news and I have bad news.

The good news is that Gail and I are going to go from Grass Valley to
Oshkosh (via Iowa City) next month burning nothing but ethanol-laced
gasahol.

The bad news is that we are going to do it in a Subaru wagon.


My dad pretty much said the same thing earlier this month. I'm holding out
that the prices slide enough to be efficient in the plane. Still a month to
geaux... Flying to San Marcos,TX next week if the weathers good...

The problem is that autogas prices are dropping a few cents a week while
avgas is still going up by about the same amount.
