Hi Kathy,
In a post you wrote, "Don't dismiss Casino's. They all have parking for RV's and one here on I-5 in Oregon has free hookups."
Excellent point. We've found some of the casinos have actual RV parks associated with the casino, in addition to free RV parking on a level parking lot. Prices range from zip to ouch, but the fringe benefit of inexpensive buffet meals often makes it a wash. Combine that with cheap gas at casinos on Indian Reservations and there's no contest -- especially if that's what you'd like to do for a few days (and nights).
Another bonus about Indian Reservations (without casinos) is a few have inexpensive RV parking. Those also range from parking lots next door to their museum to a bonafide campground along a stream. Seldom are these advertised anywhere. We ask, "Do you know where we could stay the night in our RV? We'd like a safe place to park and get some shuteye before continuing our trip in the morning."
That's usually enough to get the conversation started. If we don't ask, we never know. But, if we do ask, we might stumble onto something worthwhile -- and that will always get stored in our mind's data bank.

Hi Pearl,
In one of your postings, you mentioned: "How about the Virgin River Campground off I-15 around behind the rest area."
Fill me in a little more, would you? Tell me where to look.
Both of you have informative postings. Thanks.
Terry
