[RC] Truck Stop/Rest Stops/Horse Travels - Ridecamp Guest

==========================================

I haven't read all these posts but the ones I read
didn't mention my favorite overnite stops,Fair Grounds &Rodeo
grounds.My trip to Race of Champs in Colorado
was planned around miles we'd cover per day &
nearest towns.We called ahead to large towns so 
they'd expect us & for smaller towns we'd find a local
& ask for a rodeo ground or arena.We had no problems
finding places to stay overnite &
the horses had a stall or paddock(or entire arena )
for the nite.
This year for the 2 day trip to Oregon Outback,I planned 6
hours of driving a day(I drove alone)and called ahead to reserve
a nite at the fairgrounds in Redbluff.
For women travelling alone this works great.
They have security & facilities for those,like me
who camp rough(back of the truck camper shell). 
I took a rest stop break near Shasta where the attendent
approached me & my horse to tell me where there
was"better"grass
to graze behind the area.Most people are really nice 
when you're with the horses on the road.
