California gas prices hit record highs

SACRAMENTO, Calif. — California gas prices are at a record high and could get higher as we head into Presidents Day weekend. 

Experts say the state could see prices hit $5 a gallon soon.

Just to make the rest of you Californians feel better, I'm seeing that gas in Bridgeport on the eastern slope of the Sierras is running $5.89 a gallon.
Due to it's semi-remote location, Bridgeport typically runs about a dollar a gallon higher than the San Joaquin Valley which is why any time I spent over Sonora Pass, there was enough gas in cans in the back of my truck to get me home after dicking around all day (or weekend) up there.
