Thanks to Sky Towing in Skykomish,WA I am home now. I waited at the library computer until closing time, then went back over to the gas station. The owner of the tow company (who also is standing in as Mayor who is on vacation, found a belt that was a bit too short but I made it work. He also gave me a ride back to my vehicle and saved me ten miles of uphill night bicycle riding. A small piece of gravel wedged itself in the power steering pump pulley, chewing up the belt. I had to spend quite a while bleeding the air out of the cooling system, and by the time I was thru, I stayed another night in the mountains, which explains why I am late in forwarding this message. Thanks for all who wanted to help.
