While I usually have as little to do with Wal-Mart as possible, when we travel and need a place to park the travel trailer over night, we'll pull right into a Wal-Mart because *it is allowed!* The Supercenters have an unwritten policy of allowing overnight RV parking, thus making the centers enormously popular with RV'ers.

Start looking around at night if you go to a Wal-Mart Supercenter. You will probably see some RV's around the distant perimeter of the parking lot, sometimes there will be A LOT of RV's out there.

While many will be travelers, more and more people are now living in their RV's. This video is a humorous ode to that.

Watch closely for subtle humor. I like the employee and bottle of wine scene. up

Waiting in line to pay in Sylva, North Carolina. I was watching the flags gently sway in the air conditioning.

I'm not a regular Wal-Mart customer, but sometimes when traveling, the convenience is overwhelming:

  • The parking lots are huge, and I can get my company truck in and out of there easily.
  • I can get all my personal and work items in the same place.
  • I can put together a decent dinner at the deli counter.
  • I can be back at my hotel lickety split watching "Law and Order".
