The "northern California" Wal-Mart I recently overnighted in was in Red Bluff. It wasn't an "intentional" situation, either: I got there at around 4:30 in the afternoon, and just wound up staying the night after a 50's-ish couple pulled in opposite of me in a new Eurovan platform Winnebago. Two generations of VW campers, housing two generations of VW owners (I'm in my early 30's). You can meet some really cool people out on the road. -fedl |
