That might not be big enough for JB's closet though.

So if you're up in PA, then up in Ohio and Indiana, surely you'll be taking 65 south IF you go home after those stops? The same 65 S that runs through... Alabama! Don't worry, that sweet smell in the state is from crystal footballs.

Here is a little story about life on the road. When you are traveling and you do not plan on checking into a park or resort, you do something called "dry docking" or "Boon docking". They are one and the same and it basically means you are living off your built in 'haves' and not connected to power or water. Now dont let me kid you, we have both power off a huge generator and water off a huge tank that is filtered out of every faucet, but that is what is called boon docking. Living within what you have without being plugged in.

Well while on the road, there are a few large places that are open to this sort of thing when you need to park for a night and get some sleep, or eat, or walk the dogs or do whatever. Walmarts are known to be very open to this and are very much liked in the RV community because of it. All Walmarts allow dry docking and even encourage it if the city/county/locale allows it. This is because the founder was very much in love with the traveling lifestyle.

Well tonight, GG and I decided that we had had enough on the road and were both exhausted. There was no RV park anywhere near us in this area and we decided to call it a night. We use a RV specific GPS device by Rand McNally and it actually gives a ton of information like rest stops, camp grounds and even Walmarts. So we call the next one on the list and they say "Sure, we would love to have you. We have an area to park and make yourself at home. Feel free to run your generator all night and enjoy".

So we are boon docking tonight in a Walmart parking lot in the middle of absolutely no where. Not exactly roughing it mind you as we are both laid out on a couch, have a 40" TV on with Directv. Using the internet and have it all, but if you would have asked me 6 months ago if I would ever be camping in a parking lot of a Walmart, I would have laughed at you.

Plus they are open 24hours and monitored for added safety. There is actually another RV in the parking lot with us right now. It's a great time to stock up on supplies and grab some sleep before hitting the road for another all day drive.

The cool thing is that you can get your Wal Mart fix while you are there!
