Yes my dear, Serbia is in Europe, I tried to find on Internet Atlas and to copy to you the possition of Serbia, but I can't do it through UF :( ... SO if you are not lazy you have just to surch by yourself the Atlas of the World on Internet, than Europe and you would see where Serbia is, or I can e-mail it for you :) !!!
Second, yes, I am to years older than your daughter :) !!!
Still laughing ?! Me too :)
But years are obviesly not the problem between us !! :)
Hugssssss, Srna

Hi Srna !! I am glad You like this image. I understand why You cannot answer my question about when this was a normal gasoline price cause I think you were a small child !! Ha,haha!!! It was either in the late 70's or early 80's is the best guess so far ,lol !
Also I am not sure but I don't think gasoline went thru such a BIG deal in Europe , or Serbia , as it did here in the USA... It was almost a change of lifestyle for many Americans...ha!!
You are soooo sweet Srna ... Thank You so much as always for your kind comments my dear.
Hugssss

Maybe back in the 80's. I do recall paying less than this but darned if I can recall when it was so long ago. Good one, Michele. Excellent color and detail and good composition. I like it.
--Best to you, Jan
