Camping in a Walmart parking lot? No thank you! Or, wait, maybe it’s not such a bad idea. Self-care hacks to help you decide how to plan a hassle-free vacation.
You’ll Never Find ME Camping in a Walmart Parking Lot!
I confess, I used to giggle when I saw RVs lined up in the back forty of the local Walmart parking lot. Why in the world would anyone choose camping in a Walmart parking lot over a quieter, more serene location? I laughed and giggled before we purchased an RV. When our girls and I traveled from Montana to Chicago to visit the American Girl Place and have tea with their dolls, I suddenly understood the attraction.
Even though a friend and her daughter drove along with us, I loved the security of parking in a well-lit area. We parked in a school parking lot when we arrived in Chicago, and it didn’t offer the security of camping in a Walmart parking lot.

Come Back Next Week
Come back next week when I share hacks for making your hike a success. Green exercise (exercising in nature) will restore you and keep you healthy. Especially if you follow some basic safety guidelines.
I’ve saved this in my Feedly until I got a chance to listen. We just got an RV a few months ago, and my husband mentioned that some WalMarts allow for RV parking, so I wanted to hear the hacks. Sounds like a good option when all you really need is a place to sleep for the night while on a trip. That’s good to know about security–I had wondered about that.
