God Bless the Florida Highway Patrol !

We were on the Extra Terrestrial Highway a few years back and if you've been on it you know there are NO fuel stops. I had been told there WERE fuel stops on that route so I only had 1/4 tank in the MH when we started toward California. After many miles and few if any buildings the low fuel light came on. I knew I had a few miles left and expected to see a fuel stop any time but of course that never happened. After a few more miles I realized I was probably about out and about this time I saw an old rough looking empty race track so I pulled into the lot and called Coach Net. CN told me it would take a while to find someone to deliver gas so I resigned myself to wait. CN called back later and said they would have gas sent to us but couldn't say how long. I thought we'd probably be there all night. Just then over the rise comes a white pickup truck and guess who; Tonopah County Sheriff's Dept. The deputy told me I was only a couple of miles outside town and if I'd crossed the next tall ridge in the road I'd have seen it. He followed me into town right up to a Shell station in case I ran dry before getting there. I got his name and badge # and wrote a letter of commendation to the sheriff. I also emailed him and received a reply thanking me for visiting his town.
