Today I needed to be in Boise for a meeting at 1:30 p.m. with the State Board of Education. The forecast was for snow and bad roads today and it started to snow as I was leaving the house at about 8 this morning. The roads going to Boise were pretty slick in some spots and completely dry in others. Coming home was no problem at all. Four and a half hours going over, three and a half coming back. All for a 90-minute meeting that hopefully something will come out of.

I stopped for gas at the Mountain Home exit on I-86. The Pilot station had gas for $2.97. Directly across the street (and I mean directly across), the Chevron station’s price was $3.14. Seventeen cents difference … or about $1.87 difference on the eleven gallons of gas I bought (at the Pilot station). The odd thing was that people were filling their cars up over at the Chevron station. Why? Inquiring minds want to know….

On another note, the oft-rescheduled Salt Lake City Podcamp will be held on March 15th. Looks to be a good event and worth attending. Signup available as well … click on the link!
