The bakery also makes fabulous rolls and buns that are just smudgy with that sticky cinnamon stuff that you want to lick off your hands. I left there loaded down with blueberry pies and buns. The pies were the good part, but getting up in the middle of the night to watch Irene make them was the bad part. I would get up and find Orion blazing in the night sky. Supposedly you can't see the constellation until the winter months, but if you get up at 3 o'clock in the morning you find out that you can.
Some odd things happen at the truck stop.
On two occasions nesting rattlesnakes shorted out the electricity in the complex. A nesting crow also made the same mistake. Evidently they got into a place near the electrical apparatus, and their bodies came in contact with the connection. They got electrocuted, and the whole facility was out of power for a while.
