Don, first, I hope that your mother is okay.

Thanks for the heads-up on A'ville. We travel there next week for LEAF
festival. Looks like we ought to bring 2 or 3 full gas cans with us.  Gas
was $3.59 here last Saturday and has since dropped to $3.19 but some spots
in Roanoke have it as low as $2.99. It bugs me that $2.99 seems dirt cheap
when it used to be super expensive.
