Local Chevron jumped to $3.73 today, but Costco is still in the $3.50s... I may need to top off tomorrow, but no real need.. We leave for St Petersburg Monday, be gone the rest of the month...

St Pete to Moscow, the Viking line you see on PBS... Should be a kick...

Problem sorting the baggage limits, 18 lbs for carry on, 50 lbs for the checked bag, Economy class, no way we're payin' for business or first... Anyway, it turns out I can carry the laptop separate, so it doesn't count, else it was going to be tough to stay in the limits... Camera, cords, charger add a lot... Lots of stuff to gather this time, seems more than the last run...

Now it's looking like we'll hit a lot of rain, at least in St Pete, so more to consider...

Had my lighter 24-120mm lens in for repair, but sadly, it's not worth the $150 to fix, so I picked up a 55-200mm VR lens to use as a backup to the 18-270 I normally use..

Hectic week or two here, trip stuff, family stuff, all pushed into this week it seems.. And tons of costs to go with...

So in any case, we have wifi aboard the boat, maybe no time, but will be checking emails...

Onward... Prepack tomorrow!

I filled-up yesterday at the Costco near the office and paid $3.459 for regular. Most the name brand stations in the area are running anywhere from $3.699 to $3.759. I won't be buying any gas for a couple of weeks as I fly to Shanghai on Tuesday and won't be back until the 27th so we'll see if the prices hold or not.
