Thanks to both of you for reminding me that my tank is almost empty and I need to get gas. If I don't get it at Costco, I usually run to Delaware which is at least 30 cents per gallon cheaper. Right now it's running about $2.10 down there. The gas price that Tal quoted is about 20 cents/gal higher than it was when we were in TV in Dec.
Bottom line is, boy are you in for a treat, K, moving from the left coast to the right one - lol. I'm sure you've already run some numbers for living in TV and see what a bargain it is compared to where many of us currently live or came from. I'm working on our taxes today and it is interesting to see the differences in the cost of services and taxes between our primary residence and our rental properties which are in 3 different states. When you consider everything including weather and what you get for the money, NOTHING compares to TV. |

Gas Buddy is NOTHING but useful.
I had to fill up because my gas gauge warning light was on and I want to get to Brownwood next week.
Been in Florida for 22.5 years so I am not used to temps below 60 very often. I froze my butt in December of 2001 because I flew to El Paso, Texas through Dallas with shorts on. And strangely flew back from El Paso to Dallas with a University of Texas at El Paso grad who wanted to know all about my interview with UTEP where I met their President, Head Librarian, Reference staff, and their professor in charge of their pre-law program. Do remember that their Head of Reference had worked at the NYPL in Manhattan or somewhere close to downtown NYC. The flight from Tampa went through Dallas.
I did spent late August through early December 1994 in Itasca, IL nursing my uncle Bill but the Fall in Chicagoland was rather mild. December 1994 is the last time I even saw snow at my feet.
Did see a lot of snow in Minneapolis from 1986 to late 1991. And in Denver in 1983-1984. And around Reno from 1970-1983.
