We did that the day before Christmas.  Well actually it was 2+2 5gal cans for the boat.  Drove up to Marathon to go to Home Depot and while there got gas since gas there is 50 cents a gallon cheaper than on our island.  Traffic was horrible.  Too many snowbirds and visitors here now.

Don't you worry when she doesn't yell?  While my mother isn't a yeller she does complain nonstop.  I always say the day I visit her (or even talk to her on the phone) and she doesn't complain I'll be worried.
