I askedDHnwhatnourvgas bill was in summer months.He said it's about $35.00 per month when we are not using gas to heat the house. We use natural gas for clothes dryer,stove in those months.

Thanks for the input folks. DH finally got someone from the gas company to listen, and they're supposed to be replacing the meter again on Fri. We will ask them to check for leaks while they're here.
JP & IL: Appreciate the comparative data. That helps confirm to my mind that it wasn't just a matter of old meter under-reporting. Our last couple of bills before the meter replacement were actual reads and not estimates.
