[VAC] Re: Wal*Mart "Camping"



I concur.  Wife and I stopped at a Walmart in the Northern Napa Valley on our
way to Redding and points North.  Walked into the store and asked for the
manager, talked with him, he said that would be fine after I explained that I
had parked on the side of his building out near the edge of the lot.  We
ate/made supper out of the Wally and then went back to the trailer, and dropped
the tongue and the side jacks.  levelled it and turned in.  Woke up at 0500 and
found that we had about a dozen 18 wheelers parked all over the lot and around
us.
We found our way out of the lot thru the trucks, a couple of which were leaving
at the same time.

So, it is not just RVers who use Wally's overnight.  I figure that it is not
only restaurants and cafes fit for truckers which should be used.  In fact,
given a choice, I would rather park my rig in the midst of a pack of idling
diesels anytime to some of the RV parks I have been in.  oh, do not pass up the
occasional town or county parks which allow RV parking.  (Sheridan WY I think is
one example which we stopped in.)
