Now as you may be aware by now, I have traveling the country lately via big rig. And honestly, it's a whole lot nicer than I would have imagined. First off all, it's like an RV, but without the bathroom. The upside to not having your own bathroom with you all the time is one, no one has to dump the sledge and no one has to clean the bathroom. The downside is that sometimes you really have to go and there is not one there. Other than the bathrooms though, we have most of the luxuries of home including a cozy bed, a microwave, a TV/DVD player, little fridge like thing and internet almost everywhere we go.
My favorite part is taking a nap while we are moving, especially at night, especially if it's raining. The truck travels in a nice rhythmic fashion and it is so soothing and awesome, especially since the bed is so comfy. You can nap for an hour and then be awake and ready to go for many more hours of talk radio of someone else's choosing.....
My second favorite part of the big rig travel is when the truck first starts. As it warms up, there is a moment when it gets very loud and sounds like an airplane about to take off. I see now why little boys get so excited about big trucks.
