The federal government is basically saying that the price of gas could go up slightly through Labor Day weekend. It could be another couple of cents between now and next weekend. Maybe as much as four or five cents.

Labor Day weekend is not as important from an economic standpoint as it used to be.

There is a lot of concern since this is the Labor Day weekend - it's the last chance to get away. People were really concerned about whether there would be fuel available on the way and at their destinations. We are reassuring them that the fuel supply is coming up.

Will we have a traditional Labor Day weekend -- absolutely not, ... No one with any soul will not be tempered by what we are going through.

We need to take it with a grain of salt when it comes to speculation of what may happen in the future.

This is not uncharted territory. As much as we dislike it, we are not as alarmed. You are not going to find anybody who will tell you they are going to cancel their travel plans.
