<font face="Arial"><font size=-1>hello,</font></font><font face="Arial"><font size=-1>i
live in SF, CA, and been recently starting to do a lot of camping all over
the state in my westy.&nbsp; one thing that bums me out a little, is the
apparent lack of nice, *free* places to park.&nbsp; you go to any town,
and usually there is some sort of state park or similiar kind of park,
but they charge what i think is an outrageous fee, usually upwards of $20.&nbsp;
if you dont want to pay this, youre left with ferreting out some discreet
parking spot where you wont get hassled for 'inhabiting' your vehicle.&nbsp;
this can be a pain in the but if you have to do it every night, usually
as its starting to get dark (daylight hours being righteously used for
adventure ;).&nbsp; anybody figured out a solution to this?</font></font><font face="Arial"><font size=-1>steve&amp;buster</font></font></blockquote>
