Eye On The Road, Day Five

CBS News correspondent Sharyn Alfonsi's Web-exclusive road diary on how Americans are coping with the high price of gas.



On the road to Boston

Tonight, were finally going to count up our receipts and find out how much the gas for this trip cost us.

That got me to thinking about some other numbers you might find interesting.

  • 11 — States we covered
  • 5 — Days on the road
  • 85 — Speed a viewer claims she clocked us at in Fayetteville, N.C.
  • 3 — Photographers
  • 130 — Average dollars it costs to fill up the Satellite truck
  • 4 — Average hours we slept each night
  • 0 — Number of hotels we stopped at that we'd ever want to return to
  • 1 — Baseball given to me by the Carolina Mudcats
  • 150 — Feet photographer Mark LaGanga climbed to get a shot from on top of a silo
  • 37 — Cans of Red Bull LaGanga drank this week
  • 14 — Number of Cokes I drank this week

    I'm off to get No. 15. See you tonight!
