Clearly based on this picture, it's still daylight, so they are probably there for 10-12 hours.. maybe more. Certainly probably not just 4-5.
I don't like going to Walmart WITHOUT my trailer...

This time of year there is over 18 hours of daylight at Whitehorse YT in a 24 hour period.
Ok.. so, good point.. But, still, I would rather plan a trip to stop at a decent campground, and relax. I just don't think I could relax at a Walmart.
But, not saying I won't do it in the future, because I might have to. But would prefer not.

I took the photo at 6AM.
And to the point of going to a Campground to relax...There are times when I am in the process of getting from point a to Point b that for me it's just more relaxing NOT to have to be in an RV Park and set up and then take down the trailer the next Morning. Or to deal with an irritable or Curmudgeonly Park Owner/worker.
Many RV Parks are not the idyllic, relaxing and "fun" places they are advertised as. In so many you are very close to the rigs next to you, Kids are running around shrieking, you can hear your neighbor doing things that should not be heard...No, RV Parks often dont live up to their Ad Hype. Or the myth of the bucolic "camping" spot they love to portray.
In the few times (5 or so)I have stayed at a Wal Mart I have never been woken in the night, it's been quiet, people seem to spread out from each other and I have never felt uncomfortable about my security.
