well here is my story, not about washington but north carolina, on the two
days this summer i was "touring" with phish, the raieigh and gainsville
shows if anyone was there.  Between the two shows we slept at a NC rest
stop, sign read, "no overnight stays", there were all years of busses and we
just parked next to a orange split window camper, and slept.  we were
awakened by the NC DMV police, a really nice guy, he knocked on the window
and said "time to get up".  he proceeded to hang around and ask about where
we were from and what kind of music phish played.  he seemed very
sympathetic to all us longhaired, road-whearied concert goers....

my 2 cents..
