Do you carry?

I did carry extra diesel fuel when we went to Alaska and did need it on our return. Drove through a town in BC and after your out of the town there was a sign 86km to next services. Looked at the guage and thought I can make that. Well the road was very hilly and curvey made it to the services and they were closed. Only open on the weekend. Just about then a woman with two young kids pulled in from the opposite direction needing gas. I only had diesel had 3/4 gallon of genarator gas. There was a campground sign that pointed down behind the fuel station so I walked down the hill and found the camphost. They said once school was back in session the owners were only there on the weekend because business slacked off. Since this was on a lake and there were several seasonals there with boats she would ask if any had gas they were willing to part with. One of them had 5 gal they would let the woman have. We desided to spend the night as it was closing in on cocktail hour.
