EDIT: Also! After only ~2.5k miles I brought the lifetime average up from 62.5 MPG to 62.7 MPG!! Car has 257,100 or 257,200 miles on it now.
Most of my driving anymore is this short stop and go around town stuff. I have never skipped a tank in the years I've owned this car.

Nice economy on your trip, especially considering the weather!
