2) Small tent and sleeping bag on beach near Lincoln City Oregon....Tide came in and I'm under water.

3) Rest area north of Redding CA.......Walked away from parked cars and thew down sleeping bag.....Get up and I'm 3 ft from a steep hillside I could have tumbled down in the dark and gotten seriously injuried.

4) Rest area off I-5 near San Diego.....Just a sleeping bag. Sprinklers came on in the middle of the night.

5) 1978 on I-90 west of Liviningston, MT......A lack of towns, fuel, daylight and no lack of beer mandated an immediate stop for the night. Pitched a tent in the median of the freeway. Never a good idea.....

6)....Early '80's.....Woke up in some gals bed in northern Calif......Gotta leave early....No idea where I am or how to get out of the neighborhood.......

7) Southern Iowa........Local gal sez...You gotta call my friend Johnnie and stay with her..............OMG.

There's more.........But, only motels for at least the last 20 years....
Sounds like a flashlight would have helped you in a few of those situations and the rest were a result of drunkenness.
