Well I may be bragging alittle bit but I have to say I am sure proud of myself. I have been driving a very long time and I have NEVER run out of gas. However, today I think I was the closest ever. Last night I pulled into the driveway and told Thayne I didn't think I would make it to a gas station to get gas. So today I started out driving the Excursion (choke choke). I swear I can almost here the car making a slurping sucking noise as I drive this car. Thayne then tells me that he needed the Excursion to take on the Scout Camporee. So he so nicely takes the gas can out of the garage and puts a gallon into my PT so I can get to the gas station safely. Yep! I felt so safe I drove right past the gas station and took TJ to work, picked the little kids up from school, made a return to Ross (the curtain rod Thayne wouldn't let me hang in his room), went to Potato Barn to look at furniture, drove to Rachel's to hang out until I had to get TJ from work, went to get TJ from work with my gas light back on and back to the point I was in my driveway with no gas. TJ finally came out of work and I drove straight to Costco which is about 2-3 miles holding my breath the whole time. I saw a line at the Costco gas station. Thinking my kids can push me to the pump if I have to, then I see that everyone is in line for the pump with the gas tank on the left side of their car, yippeee for me mine is on the right and I just drove straight in possibly coasting but I am not sure.
I am proudly patting myself on the back for still not ever running out of gas.

Well that says a lot for your gas milege but I just have to have my tank over 1/2, just in case you know.
Once in downtown Salt Lake on the 15. Actually, once in Sydney too. And, haha, once at the Provo temple. Can you believe there is no gas station right next to the Provo temple?
