Gas/Fuel Price and hunting plans

[Caseknife]

Doesn't change anything for me, but we have 4 guys splitting fuel costs for a trip to Wyoming for one elk in a few weeks.

Congrats on the retirement, @BuzzH. It is pretty nice to be able to do stuff on your own time.

Congrats on your retirement. With that, you know I'm just wee GS employee with maybe one step increase, zero cola for the foreseeable future. Folgers it is!

The trips are not concurrent, so I could be open to different coffee options. But I gotta ask, what do boomers drink for coffee that beats Folgers?

That's a great question, I'm glad I'm not a boomer but I would think almost anything would beat folgers. That stuff is brutal.

Didn't think you were quite a boomer, I'm about at the end of that generation. Anything is a better than Folgers, but that is what I drink every morning because my wife buys it

One day into a four day drive to northern BC, 2400 miles one way. Yeah, higher gas prices suck but in the grand scheme of things, barely a nit. Retirement is great!

The hunt talk millionaires are making a strong appearance. AI suggests hunt talkers are more affluent than the average citizens.

I’m still incredibly POed that my favorite coffee at Costco (Hunter Bay) went from $15/2 lb bag to $26 with the tariffs and is now all the way back down to $24.. that is a non-negotiable though.

I've never understood the need to drink coffee.

it's more to do with having about 12 days left to work for the rest of my life.

Congrats, Buzz! I always tell folks "Retirement does not suck!"

At the cost of just tires I’m surprised more people aren’t running little cars

Our 2011 Outback has 252,000 miles and is still getting 26-28 mpg.

I’m taking it out this weekend.

I think it’s the if you aren’t driving a truck you aren’t a man mindset. Never understood it. Even when gas was $2/gallon.
