Bummer of an evening Mike, but glad you paid $65 for a room instead of a fine to the state or a night in jail!
Thanks Curt! 🙂
Did I ever tell you about the time I camped on a lawn next to Autozone? I drove until I couldn’t drive any longer (college years) and struggling to keep my eyes open, I found a perfect empty lot of nicely trimmed grass next to an Autozone, north of Salt Lake City (Ogden area I believe). It was 3 or 4 am and I was so tired, all I could do was lay my sleeping pad, then sleeping bag out, and crawl in. I don’t know if I even took my cloths off. I immediately crashed asleep.
I am sure I was in a very DEEP sleep when I heard the rattlesnake sound, freaking me out, and simultaneously striking me in my fact and down my sleeping bag. Shocked, confused and completely disoriented, I had no idea what was happening as I struggled to free myself of sticky soaking sleeping bag while the “rattlesnake” sprinklers continued to barrage me in my weakened consciousness. I was totally soaked in a matter of seconds that seemed like hours. And now awake and searching for another spot. The pavement next to the dumpster was just fine.
Always look for sprinklers when setting out on a nice grassy field.
OMG…no, you never told me that story. Too funny!
BTW, thanks for the typo catch. I’ve since corrected.
