we were looking for fossils on sharky williams and his brother maurice williams ranch and finding some pretty cool stuff, and we get up on august 12, look outside the tent, and it s foggy. it s kind of a weird thing to have fog on the prairie. so we got kind of a little bit later start. we weren t in any big hurry, because you couldn t see very well, and then went out to start loading up the suburban. we have a 1975 suburban all rusted out. and i look, and the tire s flat. so i say, oh, crap. well, almost flat. still had a little bit of air in it. so i go in the back to get the spare tire, and the spare tire s flat, so i pull out the tire pump, and the tire pump hose is broken. so we figure, i guess we better head into town while we still have enough air in the tire to get there. we decided, well, we re gonna have to go to town. i d been out there for four of five weeks. going to town, that s okay. i can take it easy for half an hour, an hour. that s fine with me, but of course,
