Staying at Walmarts and such

I guess my only addition would be to check out casinos as well. Our order of preference would be casinos, Walmarts or Home Depots or Canadian Tires in Canada, then travel centres like Travel America, flying J etc. There are a few others as well but security starts to go down hill at rest stops etc. I think Casinos are probably the best for security with Walmarts, Home Depots and Canadian tires not far behind. Rest stops and camp grounds are down around the bottom for security. Camp grounds are of course the least convenient. They are generally well suited for camping but don't serve well for overnight parking although some people use them for that. To each his own. We have traveled with folks who have to stay in campgrounds at night as they have never figured out how to use their without full hookups. Frankly it is a major pane but we go with the flow when we are in a group. To each his own.

I have had a few problems with security over the years, all in campgrounds, never in Casinos or Walmarts. Lots of light and cameras in Casinos and Walmarts, not so much in campgrounds.
