Unusual places you have stayed the night.

Because we are travelers and not really campers. (We go the places we go to get where we want to be and not just to be there.) As we roll in a completely self-contained and small coach, we determine where we will spend the night by where we turn off the main engine. We have overnighted in lots of Walmarts, casinos and Cabela's. Truck stops and highway rest areas will do, but tend to be noisy.

So much for the regular stuff.
A ferry dock while as the morning boat was not for another 8 hours.
A marina storage lot where the fleet was due in the morning.
A city boat launch because it was what we could find.
A friendly city park in Wyoming.
A Corps of Engineer's working lot next to a canal.
A yard of a building supply place
--Because the instructions to the campground were wrong.
--But we still met our friends in the morning.
The parking lots of several famous and big museums.
--That way we are ready when they open.
Oh, and yes, several police or city lots when we asked where we could park just for the night.

One does not have to be very selective when all he needs is a flat place.
