And the Gas Prices Keep Rising…

Gas Price History

The Shell and Chevron at Olympic and Bundy have new record high gas prices:

Regular: $4.29

Plus: $4.59

Premium: $4.69

Diesel: $5.39

With the exception of diesel, gas prices have risen 14¢/gallon in less than 11 days. Sigh. Los Angeles needs much better public transportation if gas is going to continue to rise.

The good news is that I am getting a lot more exercise, since I have decided to officially forgo driving anywhere within one mile of my house. I am sure cutting out a lot of short trips is probably much better for the environment and the car anyway. The bad news is that I am rapidly wearing out my favorite pair of running shoes. But at least that gives me an *excuse* to do some shoe shopping!
