Definitely guys!!! Every year I put the snowblower away for the season, it's a good sign. I put the snowblower away for the season yesterday.
Put in some STA-BIL, let it run for about 5 minutes and then put it away. GOOD RIDDANCE!!! lol
Well it was at $4.539 for regular 87 octane 10% ethanol a couple of days ago when I filled up. Took over $100 to fill my Jeep Grand Cherokee with just short of 23 gallons. Most dollar wise I have put in it ever. I see it has dropped now to $4.499. And the last fill-up of the Mustang was at $5.699 for no-ethanol 91 Octane. That was about 2 weeks ago. So probably higher now...
We are getting Snow and lots of cold wild weather so the car is temporarily parked and waiting for some more warm sunny days. Next week likely. Not minding the weather as we are very short on water, worse than last year. Need all the moisture we can get. Load those mountains with lots of snow. Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.... Who sings that in April.

How far are you from the bigo hills? Have you seen Idaho the movie?
I have seen parts of Idaho the Movie and are familiar with the narrator and other documentary work he and his teams have done. It shows some fantastic scenery and how varied and beautiful Idaho is.
The "bigo hills" you are referring to, are they the mountains in general or a specific range? I live just minutes from many big O Mountains in pretty much all directions. Not sure if you have ever been to Boise before, but it is situated at the base of Shafer Butte which is 7,000 feet at the top. Boise is about 2700 ft elevation. There is a local ski resort up there (20 minutes from Boise to the top) that I use to visit every winter multiple times to go skiing. They just got about 2 feet of very wet spring snow up there in a couple of days just a week after they closed for the season. Two feet more is expected by Sunday. Good Stuff.
The Sawtooth Mountains that are featured in the trailer for the movie are about 140 miles away or a 3 hour-ish winding drive through some serious mountains to the town of Stanley or Redfish Lake, awesome area. We are about 4 hours from Mount Borah, the highest peak in Idaho. We are about 6 hours from the Tetons, which are on the Idaho-Wyoming boarder and make up Teton National Park, which is just south of Yellowstone. There is a place in the Teton area that is called Big Hole Mountains, Maybe that is what you saw?
So I am not sure what "hills" or mountains you are referring to, but I am not far from most of the Southwestern Mountain areas.
Some photos from the internet to show what I was taking about...

Not sure for the 93 octane at Mobil.
But, I did pay $4.50 for the 89 octane for the truck on Sunday.

Hey there Tony! Unfortunately it didn't last very long.. Today it only reached up to 61 degrees, but I'll still take that over 30-40 degree temps anytime... LOL
Sane here with waiting until all road salt residue is washed away
