Since we were just passing through, we chose a truck stop to sleep in the night before last. Our small setup seemed lost in the long lineup of trucks. I think we passed the noisiest night sleep we have ever experienced. It wouldn’t have been all that bad, if the engines of the trucks which ran ALL night long were a consistent black noise. But, as truckers came and went through the wee hours of the night, the roar of their engines and the sharp bursts of their air brakes would startle me out sleep over and over. Not all of us fared that bad. The boys slept the whole night through (one with major teeth grinding). I’m relieved to tell you, Dentist, that we probably won’t be doing that again.
