Walmart — Marianna Supercenter

This was our first time book docking at a Walmart.  It worked well because we are on a long drive and wasn't sure where we would stop and wanted to get as far along our journey as possible.  This Walmart is right off the main freeway.  We called the store and they were very kind and said, yes, absolutely okay to stay.  The parking lot is large and it looks like a safe area.  Next door is a Pilot with a lot of trucks.  We parked in the Walmart lot, close to the trucks in the adjacent Pilot lot.  I smelled diesel fumes and we realized some of the trucks were idling so we moved to a different place in the lot.  It was basically a place and the only consideration were lots of parking lights so made it bright in the trailer, even with the windows shut.  The dogs were a little edgy in an unfamiliar place with sounds of other trucks, so it wasn't the best night sleep but it served our road trip needs.  We were able to run our generator in the morning to make coffee, watch the Today show and head on our rainy way back on the road towards CA.  It was my first for a Walmart stay so not much to compare it with but appreciate the hospitality and place to park.
