Just put 5 bucks of diesel in the smart car. Prices dropped about 6 cents from last time.

Got topped off for $3.49 here in Kinder La at the indian casino.
We will be on I10 tomorrow on probably the worst hunk of interstate in the country, the area before the 18 mile bridge sucks big time. There is a decided difference of the road when you get to Ms.

We have a granite fireplace hearth! Love to be a little different.

That stretch there around Lafayette to the bridge has always been horrible, if you are jumping on I-12 there's a few construction areas going on so be careful thru there, at least it was a few weeks ago.Gotta love Coushatta for a stop over. I think I paid 3.32 for Diesel at Tiger truck stop exit 139 just after the bridge.

Didn't see your comment till we landed in Bay St. Louis.at the Hollywood. Still construction looks like it will be a while. Tiger was $3.16 but didn't need fuel, always a cheap spot. Coming off I12 back to I10 going East you bounce all over also on the entrance then there was an accident on the La/Ms bridge dump truck rear ended small car full of people looked pretty nasty but they got us by after about 15 minutes, nice work by cops and fire guys!

Alabama Gulf Shores $3.31 Diesel.
Lots of snow birds here in the shores EV park $450 a month not bad but is chilly sometimes here.
Friends and family on way to Umatilla Fl. Newest BIL was an Italian restaurant owner and loves to cook, can't wait.
Will do Punta Gorda first and a haircut at Wesley Chapel! If the price of fuel gets lower more will come, time to party!

After $2.94 here we are in Fl with prices from $3.48 to 3.58.
My biggest concern is the oysters last year they got them from Tx. Hoping it is better not. Gulf Shores $7.50 a dozen.

Boy, trying to get DEF here in Fl really sucks. Oh I am fairly certain you can drive over to I75 or get some from a auto store but that is more than inconvenient.
You would thing after several years of diesels needing this that more stations would supply it at the pump but doesn't seem to be the case.
The stuff in parts stores is very likely to be old and dated. This stuff does have a shelf life so fresh is far better.
I can't seem to locate a 'pumped DEF" in the Mt Dora- Leesburg area.
