Purple Van

Purple VanGas prices, dry conditions and....tiki statues?


It's been REALLY dry in Orlando recently. People here on vacation don't want it to rain while they're here but we really need it. I passed a truck watering grass by the roadside this morning across from Downtown Disney. That's how dry it is.

I'm not sure I know what this is in the back of this Disney truck (a rain god, perhaps?) but I wasn't surprised when it turned into the Polynesian.

It's a bit sad that a sign with gas prices attracts your attention They may soon need a full-time employee just to keep changing the prices. The Hess stations on property have the lowest prices around but it still isn't pretty--particularly the diesel price (which is what the purple van runs on) OUCH.
