"1 2 Many Corronas"


Came across this car about 10 miles out of McCarthy. I had met the one of the guys who was driving it at the local bar in McArthy a few nights earlier. Seemed they were drinking and headed into "town" the previous night when they got a flat tire at about 10 pm. They put the donut spare on and tried to continue, but the road ate that up as well. They walked the rest of the way. He didn't seem to fazed about it when I talked to him. Said he would make the 300 mile round trip to Glenallen and buy a new tire, after a few more days in McCarthy. Beats the standard $1,000 towing charge from the nearest service station.
