    Thank you gentlemen....

    I drove by that WM in Saginaw, TX early this afternoon and saw no trucks :biggrin_25513: and lots of signs on the poles... Called and asked customer service manager and was told, ABSOLUTELY NO OVERNIGHT PARKING, WILL BE TOWED. They said that is due to city ordinance...

    Good thing the receiver here will let me stay overnight.... They will work me in cause I have no appt for today... And I will go to WM for shopping.... but tomorrow morning.... and then shower at that stinky Pilot north of Fort Worth... but I am wondering if I go park somewhere else tomorrow evening cause that Pilot creeps me out at night.... way too tight.... :biggrin_2552:

    Parked at Ol' Reliable on the East side of Dallas, the TA in Terrell. Past midnight and there's probably 1/3rd of the parking lot wide open. Doesn't keep the lazy drivers from parallel parking near the building.

    It was extremely quiet at the customer where I parked last night... and I woke up 3 or so times worrying that someone would knock on my door... :biggrin_25526: but nobody did... So... I left when I felt like and went to WM in Saginaw, TX for my grocery shopping... There was not one truck, not even RV or bobtail parked there... :biggrin_25513: What a shame... such a big empty parking lot... And lots, lots of signs of NO OVERNIGHT SEMI PARKING...
    Well... did my groceries and then came to this stinky Pilot north of Fort Worth for a shower... washed some clothes in the shower and will stay here till tomorrow cause didn't have more Personal Conveyance miles to go anywhere... Here is where I am...
