The only good thing I see is that I've got an excuse for not mowing the yard.People's opinions on fuel prices is interesting to me. At $2.00 a gallon, it was high. At $3.00, it doesn't need to go any higher. At $4.00, we can't survive. AT $5.00, no, we can't go on. At $4.80, we have some relief, everything is going to be fine.
It is only one part of the total.
It’s definitely too high. But I just noted that our gas has dropped to $3.76 this week from almost $4 last week. Diesel has dropped from $5.09 to $4.75. Still about $1-2 per gallon too high, but movement in a better direction.People's opinions on fuel prices is interesting to me. At $2.00 a gallon, it was high.

Also funny that everyone is getting excited about the suspended sales tax in some places. Either they are already stealing road maintenance money for projects that money is not for or the roads are going to have reduced maintenance. Ohh by the way they want you to drive electric so that doesn’t contribute any money (right now) for road maintenance. Anyone not seeing a new federal/state tax on the horizon has blinders on.People's opinions on fuel prices is interesting to me. At $2.00 a gallon, it was high.

Sounds like sales tax.It’s definitely too high. But I just noted that our gas has dropped to $3.76 this week from almost $4 last week. Diesel has dropped from $5.09 to $4.75. Still about $1-2 per gallon too high, but movement in a better direction.

No they haven’t changed tax. The price per barrel of oil has also dropped in the past week. Don’t know if this is a trend or just a fluctuation. Here’s an interesting article that was in my local paper yesterday:Sounds like sales tax.
Everything is “chemicals.” Nitrogen, potassium, phosphorous, carbon, plants don’t care how the molecules were created as long as they are available in the correct proportions. An NO3 molecule in a bag of fertilizer or in a cow pie is the same exact thing.I haven’t bought chemical fertilizer in years.
Theres a free supply of effective mushroom compost available to us. As much as you want. Heck, some of the suppliers will even spread it for you for free.
I have also seen a sharp increase in the number of small beef operations and horse owners looking for “close to organic, if not 100% organic“ hay.
In MY area, many customers are getting away from chemicals.
No doubt, but try telling my customers that LOLEverything is “chemicals.” Nitrogen, potassium, phosphorous, carbon, plants don’t care how the molecules were created as long as they are available in the correct proportions.
