I would hate to spend my years gas allowence all at once, but how far from PA ???
80% of Americans are unhappy with the direction our once great Country is heading. Yet 80% of Americans insist on buying blue jeans that were made in China, coffee filters that were made in Taiwan and anything else that was made anywhere but here........wonder if there might be a connection?

We are an easy 3 days from Detroit to Winnipeg (easy as in not pushing hard).  It could be done in 2 days and a little bit further to Grump Country.  If I recall, MapBlast had Flint to Winnipeg at about 17 hours driving.

Oh yeah, gas is more expensive when you cross north of the border...currently works out to about $3/gallon.

God grant me the Serenity to accept the size of the fish I catch,
the Courage not to fib about it,
and the Wisdom to know that no one would believe me anyway.
