last couple weeks near my house in Bastrop county, gas dropped from $2.89 - 2.92ish down to $2.45 - 2.54.   However in Austin just 20 miles away I'm still seeing $2.69 to 2.56.     Before gas prices got all wacky it used to be just the opposite

We are so easily trained..  $2.28/gallon is "plummeting" prices.  hehe  When it's $1.00/gallon, I will be a bit more excited.  

I can't wait until someone invents the "Mr. Fusion Home Energy Reactor" that will do the whole "garbage to Gigawatts" thingy.   Of course, I will probably be LONG gone by the time anything that cool happens!!

Yep, Cedar Creek covers a large area from about Travis - Bastrop County line east towards Bastrop and south to Caldwell County line.   I live just a couple of miles from Caldwell county line.  it Takes me about 45 minutes from my house to Pflugerville.  My parents live there and Shoulman.  Edbert is closer to Round Rock.   We were talking at the con about getting together one of these weekends and getting some wings and beers.

Indy, gas is usually cheaper in Austin than Houston, not by much, few pennies maybe.  San Antonio is usally cheaper than Austin.  Maybe the prices fall in reverse.   Houston comes down then Austin, then San Antonio.
Maybe by next week gas will be down to $2.25 here.
