The Albuquerque experience buying gas, seeing Corvettes go by fast and our

summer weather here in March.

Buying gas. This last Sunday I went to the Murphy Express at the southeast corner
of San Mateo and Zuni and topped up my tank for $3.12 a gallon. They have eight
fueling islands there and they were really busy. Then when I drove past just his last
Wednesday the price had gone up to $3.60 a gallon. They weren't very busy at that
time. Somebody please come down on all this profit-taking.

I've recently seen three Corvettes on the streets here. One was black, one was red and
one was white. Of course each time I see one I have to sing The Corvette Song, which
originally was Little Red Corvette but it works well for other colors too. Other drivers
give me funny looks but I ignore them.

Two days ago it hit 72 degrees here. Then yesterday and today it hit 70. I'll take it but
I do worry what's gonna happen when it really does become summer!

And how are things in your neck of the woods?

At least we can all agree that we need to support Ukraine and President Nato Joe
Biden.
