boon's log 4108.07: Multnomah Falls, Sunday Surprises: The Word and Gas Prices

It was a nice sunny Saturday and we decided to take a drive east on I-84, to the Multnomah Area, along the Columbia River Gorge. (Almost) As usual, we headed downtown to Chen's for brunch first, and then headed east. It was a pleasant scenic drive. It's always nice to take a slow drive along the the historic route - you can almost never get tired of it. I've heard that hiking up the falls' quite a blast, but have yet to do it. Someday... someday...

Sunday Surprises

Woke up on Sunday morning to a pleasant surprise. Ab was flipping through her bible on the window pane and thought it was nice... She's feeling a little bit under the weather these few days - hopefully that it will not develop into something worse.


Sunday Surprise #1: The Bible

Another pleasant surprise happened at the gas station. We went for a fillup after our drive yesterday and discovered that the gas price has dipped below $3 per gallon - much earlier than what the analysts predicted, i.e. end of the year or early 2009. Well, it is good news indeed. Hopefully, it will also mean that gas prices at home will be reduced accordingly.
