Okay, I lost it at "someone farted". I'll admit it! :'D (I know, I'm childish)
As hellish as your night was, I really appreciate you posting the hour by hour of your silent insomnia. This was a really great read and I got lost in it. Actually found myself rooting for a "and I passed the hell out out dawn" ending!
@sammosk and I went camping when we first hit the states. It was beautiful but also frought with bad luck. We couldn't sleep. Turns out the air mattress we had just freshly purchased had a hole in it. No problem, right? Just patch it up. Well, it was on the actual seal for where you fill it up, and thusly, was angled to where we just could not patch it with what we had on hand to save our lives.
So needless to say, we were sleeping all night on a flat mattress, basically on the ground, and struggling as we sweat each other out in the 90 degree heat. That was... special.
Let's not even get into the absolutely smashed people that kept turning their car's headlights on right into our campsite all evening. (Really, dude?)
The part about the crying baby also killed me. I know that feeling all too well and have that internal monologue all too often.
By the way, I loved the sweet bit about your wife holding your hand. That was super precious.
Cheers, Pong! Loved the post!
Were you camping next to a highway or something? I've never camped in view of a place where cars could come unless they were very daring 4x4's
Some campsites have roads nearby. I try to find the deeper sites, but for the best spots, they must be reserved in advance.
