Pegging oil pressure on a hard run (stupid question)

I was in a rush tonight, driving about 80-90 for 15 minutes. I was watching the coolant temp but didn't pay attention to the oil pressure.

Well after I parked for a couple minutes, I got back in and on the hiway, and thats when I noticed my oil pressure was at 110 psi. I was actually a little worried because I don't think its ever been that high before. It slowly went back down to about 85 after 10 minutes. Is that good or bad?

Im using a 110 psi o/p reg. Just dont drive it hard when the engine/oil is cold and you will be fine.

110 psi? Im assuming your using an after market gage.
