Walmart Camping

July 17, 2010; somewhere in western Pennsylvania. We were pretty wiped out after our New York driving ordeal so decided not to even try to make it to the next campground. We decided to spend the night in the parking lot of the first Super Walmart we could find (they allow RVs and trucks to park overnite). This Walmart was up high on a ridge and there was a nice strong breeze so we opened the windows before we headed into a quaint little town for dinner. We found a small pizzeria and got a table outside right be a large beautiful fountain. After dinner we headed back to the camper to watch a movie we had rented from The Red Box and then headed off to sleep. The only disadvantage to camping at Walmart in addition to the obvious fact that there are no hook-ups and you have to run your generator all night for power is that it's quite bright unless your RV has total light blocking shades, which ours apparently does not. In the morning, I walked across the shopping center to Panera's to pick up coffee for Karen and me and pasties for the family, and we hit the road.
