fuel to and from work in this rural area runs about 30.00 a day.i spend about 400.00 per month on groceries between two of us.

healthcare is also goverment and costs 56.00 per month.

recreation is all outdoor activities so fuel and what ever is needed is about 100.00 dollars in total to spend a weekend at the lake plus 15.00 a night goverment camping fee.
