Hi Chessie, about that Rv park across from the Loves, was it a good park, would you recomend it? lvmci...

Average. Outside Holbrook AZ. Pretty breezy. Helped because temps were 104 to 106 every day. Little to no shade. Mostly gravel park. Sites pull through. Cement pad alongside all hookups, with 50 amp. Wifi, although not strong.

Just saw that the ave. price for regular gas in Hawaii is 3.99. One station on Maui has it at 3.89 and diesel at 4.49, Molokai will usually be even higher.

I doubt I'd be driving the bus there...

Makes no difference if you travel now it just cost more

Saw this at Durango gift shop. I thought diesel was bad. At least at this rate, I wont be getting any for Christmas.

Never knew it was that expensive to heat your house with coal.

If you ride the train do not set up front you will get covered with ash

They are burning oil now. Colorado and Arizona has fire restriction on. No campfires, no fireworks. Grand Canyon has camping restrictions too.
Quite a ride on Durango and Silverton today, except guy across from us talked to his party about 20 minutes shy of 4 hours.
Sure was great scenery. And they have a nice museum there. Little bit of everything in it. No busses though.

New member 1st post I will be starting a topic on my efforts to convert a 1997 Prevost H3-45 former passenger coach.......

Just to make you all feel a bit better about your diesel prices, I live in Surrey, BC Canada
a litre of diesel up here is $1.46 cdn
3.78 litres per US gallon = $5.55 cdn per US gallon
$5.55 cdn = $4.52 USD/gallon

I hope that makes you all feel a bit better about your "relatively" cheap diesel prices......and don't feel to bad for me I am only 15 minutes north of the US border and about 1 hour from Bellingham, Washington where diesel goes from $1.46/litre cdn down to $0.91/litre cdn so when I need to fill my 890 litre (235 US gallon) tank I will be doing a little road trip

Hi st165, is the Canadian border open now? lvmci...

chessie4905 · June 29, 2021, 06:31:24 PM

Just checked. Officially extended till July 21st.
They plan to open it when snow in Alaska reaches 12 inches at their border.🙄
