When traveling I most often used campgrounds as a source for LPG, topping off on the way in or on the way out. My wife liked KOAs, and most KOA locations sell LPG, it may be a franchise requirement. Flying J is another option, if you are in Flying J country. Other travel centers with major trucking business may retail LPG, as it is used by some refrigeration technologies.
Most of these locations are retail, they will usually have a higher price than retail services at a major wholesaler, but not always. Some LPG wholesalers don't really want to keep staff on site to handle casual small sales, and price to discourage customers.
I've found that when I was out about 1-2 weeks every month, I would need to top off once every 2-3 months, usually about half of my 18 gallon capacity. In winter, running the furnace overnight at 20F to 40F, about once a week. Casual summer camping since my wife died, once a year.
