We lived over near Deer Park, and when the ambient
noise was down and the conditions were right we could hear it at the
house.

I lived in the Deer Park Aprtments by Casey Chevy. It was quiet there.

Well, with Jefferson Avenue on one side of you and Rt. 17 on the other, your
ambient range was likely a bit different from mine (Groome Rd, about halfway
between Jefferson and Harpersville Rd). Believe me--we never heard the
KC's unless they were flying overhead, but we could indeed pick up the sound
of the high speed tunnel cutting loose when the conditions were right.

You would have been pretty close to the old Bomarc site, or at least to the
back side of it. I used to go squirrel hunting in that area; got turned
around once and ended up hiking a fair distance out of my way to get back
out. Now there is a big Omni Hotel on that site, Jefferson Avenue has six
lanes is developed all the way up past the airport (no more Yoder's
Dairey--it is the site of a huge shopping mall). Not a bad place to grow up,
but I sure would not want to live there now.
