Refueling Tips

• Buy gas in the morning when the ground temperature is still cold. The colder the ground (where the gas is stored) the denser the gasoline.
• Fill up slowly. If you are pumping on the fast rate, some of the liquid that goes to your tank becomes vapor.
• One of the most important tips is to fill up when your gas tank is HALF EMPTY. The more gas you have in your tank the less air there is. Gasoline evaporates fast!
• If there is a gasoline truck pumping into the storage tanks, DO NOT fill up. The dirt and sludge which builds up in the storage tank is stirred up when gas is being delivered, and could end up in your car's tank.

Advice from President Hinckley to Mitt Romney

Mitt Romney met with President Hinckley before deciding to enter the race for the White House. Mitt says of the conversation:

A Man to Match and Better Our Times!

Jim McDonald is new Stake Patriarch!

Jim is our next door neighbor. Interesting fact about being called as a Patriarch: a Patriarch is never called to a Priesthood Line Authority position after being called as a Patriarch (ever to be a Patriarch, and never more to be a Seventy, Stake President, Mission President, Bishop, ...).

Happy Deals

All Day's Market doughnuts (bagels, maple bars, cookies, bear claws, bismarks, muffin tops, ...) are 25-cents after 6 p.m. All Burger Supreme burgers are half-price after 8:30 p.m. AND, I'm always on the lookout for Chocolate Neccos. I just found a bunch at JoAnn's Fabrics! Go figure!
