However, they now allow pumping of diesel in NJ. I would venture to say I've pumped gas maybe 5 or 6 times in my life. I always lived in NJ until fulltiming and well, Leonard is good for some things. What is funny is NJ gas and diesel is some of the cheapest around. We paid $2.89 while in PA last week. We are paying $2.25 here back in NJ.<br /><br />I have a picture of a goose in my blog header. I told Len yesterday when I took it, Judy will know what it is. We don't.Phyllishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09184706027679979998noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7774004683471521654.post-77488558283387779852015-08-19T16:56:20.046-05:002015-08-19T16:56:20.046-05:00That was quite a risk: driving around with a half-...That was quite a risk: driving around with a half-tank, searching for a station with the possibility that you'd use up the fuel at each and every turn. It’s good that truck stop showed up just in time. Anyway, it would be best to carry around an extra gallon or so of gas, in case you encounter the same problem again in the future. Take care! <br /><br /><a href="https://apacheoilcotx.wordpress.com/2015/06/24/shell-lubricants-and-oil-viscosity/" rel="nofollow">Abraham Yates @ Apache Oil Company</a>Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03650374552267943409noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7774004683471521654.post-17531159990123681502015-08-19T12:13:12.556-05:002015-08-19T12:13:12.556-05:00And yes...dang...I saw all that smoke in the Basin...And yes...dang...I saw all that smoke in the Basin on Monday and see that in your photos it makes everything look a bit tired.

Sorry you missed the Pilot. and glad you found that other station at least.. the best laid plans and all that.... Mo and I hiked up to that little building back in January of 2003. It was gorgeous, even with a bit of fog. Hopefully the fog won't show up while you are there, you have had enough of that stuff, I am sure.

It makes me kind of irritated that Pilot and Flying J advertise to RVs and apparently just assume that they are all diesel. I didn't want a diesel and still don't but I'd sure like easier gas stations. Like the view out your front window.
