The Wheaton Truck!

The infamous Wheaton truck that tried to kill us a half dozen times on the way to Cincinnati. First, he slammed on his brakes for no reason, coming out of a tunnel. Then, he started weaving through traffic at breakneck speeds. Sure, we'd pass him, but every time we'd stop at a rest area and get back on the highway... it didn't take long before he was there again.

This picture was taken later in the day, after we'd thought we'd finally lost him by hours and hours. Until I exclaimed "OH MY GOD!!!" and scared Vijay and Monica half to death. "It's the Wheaton truck," I uttered. And yes, it was the same guy. I'm sure he had a tracking beacon on us, because he was following us (or coming out of nowhere ahead of us) for at least five hours.
