<P>This may be an "unpopular" position, but that's never stopped me before. Just consider what I'm saying, then do as your conscious tells you.</P>
<P>Most of you know that I am in the RV business. I deal with campers every day, and most of the campers I deal with are either "full timers" (meaning they live "full time"&nbsp;in their RV), or 6 month "full timers" (meaning they live at least 6 months of the year in thier RV).</P>
<P>Volks, simply put, camping in Wall Mart parking lots, K Mart parking lots, rest area's and the like is simply&nbsp;"not safe".</P>
<P>Have I done it? Yep. Is it smart? Nope. Because nothing bad ever happened to me, should I keep doing it? Nope. It only takes "one" time. And I know all about the "I carry Smith and Wesson protection" excuse. Don't go there, that's a big loser.</P>
<P>my life is worth a lot more than the $20 or $30 bucks I'll pay for a campground site, and if I look around and do some advance planning, I'll pay less than that.</P>
<P>Again, I know the feeling of "afoot and light hearted, I take to the open road" from Walt Whitman, but sincerly, I like all who I have met on this list, and I'd like to keep you all around for a long time. Hell, your the only sane ones out there.</P>
