Eh...I don't really like to see them traveling up that high w/ regularity. When was the last time your cooling system was looked @/maintained? The coolant should be changed @ least every 2 years. How is your fan clutch? One morning before you start the car go out and see what kind of resistance you encounter when you spin the fan.. Then get the car up to temp and when you park check it again. It should be a good bit harder to move.

Also, you might try adding a container or two of Redline's Water Wetter.
