Had to run errands in town but got a late start. As I drove by HEB was surprised that gasoline had gone down to $2.24 per gallon, that was not the case at Exxon, Stripes or Murphy Oil (Walmart).
I think I mentioned before that Del Rio has a fly, mosquito, and wasp epidemic...those suckers are everywhere. I know I have fly ribbon from back when Walter (ex-horse of a neighbor to the south of mother's house). Unable to locate it I went to buy some more at the dollar store...boy has the product gotten smaller...everything at the Dollar Tree has gotten smaller.
A couple of months ago I kidded that the Dollar Tree needed to change its name to The Three Dollar Store because with all the proposed tariffs on Chinese goods nothing is going to cost a dollar in the future. I thought perhaps I had dreamt this but I actually saw a commercial for a store I had never heard of before...Five Below Store. I suppose it is like the 99 Cents Only Store?
By the time I headed home I presume word had gotten out that HEB had the lowest gasoline price in town and there were LONG lines...you know my rule...so I went on my merry way.
The high today was 96 with a heat index of 104 degrees.
Good night. May you all have Terlingua Dreams.
