...this was going on?  I guess it's a good time to be on vacation outside of Virginia!

Colonial Pipeline has “initiated the restart” of the major pipeline carrying fuel to the East Coast but says it will take several days for the supply of gas to return to normal. The reason it has taken so long to get the gas moving again is reportedly because Colonial decided not to pay the ransom to the hackers and instead has been rebuilding its data systems from a backup. Meanwhile, gas shortages are still spreading in the Southeast. Nearly half the gas stations in Virginia, South Carolina and Georgia are dry, according to GasBuddy. The national average for a gallon of regular went above $3 for the first time since 2014.
