Gas Withdrawals

Are you thinking what I’m thinking? Where’s the gas? Long lines, panic, and police………….did we wake up in 1973?
The best explanation I have been able to get is this: The hurricanes caused reduced production and the pipelines that feed our area are operating at some reduced capacity. And it could be up to a week before things will be back to “normal”.
I am realizing, on a very personal level after today, that apparently “normal” means an absolute dependency on a few politically unstable, unbalanced, and hostile nations who hate us.
Oh, great. What a relief, the comforting news that things will get back to normal.
I would like to challenge us all afresh to seek a new freedom from fossil fuels. Let us open our minds to more creative solutions, even if it means, God forbid, we have to change the way we do a few things.
Maybe you’ve already started. Share it with us so we can too.
I’m thinking going on horseback might be fun.
