Just wondering

We are getting ready for our 2nd year as condo owners. Unfortunately, we live 3 1/2 hours away, and with the price of gas supposedly reaching $4.00 a gallon,,,we are not sure how often we will be down the OC this year. I would love to go every weekend, but at $50.00-$75.00 a pop for gas,,,I doubt that will happen. I am looking forward to the No Smoking Ban,,, sorry for any smokers out there. Does anyone have any thoughts on how the economy will affect OC this summer? We dont rent our condo..so i am not worried about that...just business's in general?:D
