It still is.

 

I still do.

 

TV is only for DVDs, the phone is now a digital pocket gizmo, the floor is covered in vinyl, and the pictures on the wall are real guns, but nothing else is changed, added, or taken away.

Just wishful thinking on my part...

Looks can be deceiving, but in this case, I think his looks tell us all we need to know.

 

See!  God does have a sense of humor.

That would be a much more compelling photograph if we knew for a fact that it was taken in California.

 

Gas right now, here, is running right at $3. The highest it's been since Brandon took over is just under 4. And it has been down to real close to 2 several times. So $1.68 ain't all that impressive.

 

But I have seen comments that California gas is running a close second to British gas. 7-8-9 dollars a gallon.

 

So if California gas was $1.68, pre-Brandon, and is now 8 or 9 dollars - that would be an impressive statement.

 

 

 

Gas Price History

 

Nation wide the average price in 2020 was $2.17. For 2023 it was $3.22. That's an increase of 149%.

 

Here is a chart showing the national average price of gasoline for the last 5 years.

Where does it say California?

 

Gas in California in November 2020 was around $3.25 per gallon.  In 2022 here in Sonoma County it got up close to $7, in San Francisco, Los Angeles and some other areas it was close to $10.

Yesterday while we were out and about, i noticed it is close to $5/gallon. 

 

We haven't seen under $2/gallon in over a decade.

I did not say it says California. I said that if it definitely said California - like California plates on the car or maybe something easily legible on the pump that said California - that it would be a more compelling picture.

Um....

"if we knew for a fact that it was taken in California." 

 

Your wording implies a claim that it was taken in California.

What difference does it make WHERE it was taken? The point is that gas costs a LOT more now than it did 3 years ago!

Here's a chart of gas prices in Tucson from 2020 until now. There's a CLEAR trend.
