Walmart (Oak Grove) | Informal Campsite

Someone we know was parked there during a snow storm and they let him stay there the first night. The second night, still icy roads, they (security) had him leave so he went 15 miles to cracker barrel in Independence.

Just like most walmarts, the parking lot is good-sized. we stayed over by the garden center next to the interstate. Typical road noise. We went in to buy a few things and we asked if we could stay they said yes just don't stay near the front doors. It is a small walmart with only 1 set of doors.
I do have to mention that there is a KOA across the interstate, and apparently, between 10 pm and 11pm, this parking lot gets flooded with campfire smoke. I am assuming that due to quiet time at the KOA, everyone is putting out their fires.
We have a great Verizon signal 5G 3 to 4 bars.

Called ahead and got the green light for overnights. Only request was not to park near the front of the store, that's a no brainer. Right side of the parking lot is more level, though left side is more unused. Train rolled through about 8pm, and some sirens. Other than that it's a peaceful spot.

Verizon- 2 bars 4G
