It can get REAL cold in the high country of Arizona!

Your comments on fuel prices got my interest, so I did a quick search this AM and found some numbers which should bring some more joy to your travel. I didn't notice if you are using diesel or regular fuel, but as you go south and east, prices/gal get considerably better. (Statewide averages) AZ-$2.12 Reg, $2.24 Diesel; NM-1.91 Reg,2.16 Diesel; TX-1.82 Reg, 2.03 Diesel; MS 1.86 Reg, 2.04 Diesel. Good old CA is averaging $2.26 Reg, $2.38 Diesel.

A reliable, quick web site to check gas prices is a AAA site, http://198.6.95.31/sbsavg.asp. You can go to individual cities from the basic site mentioned here.

Safe Travels, and enjoy the warmth as you head south. It is pretty cold here in Bakersfield, as Hamrad mentioned, and today will get real miserable with rain, wind and cold.

Best,
