Craziest places you've slept for the night?

I spent the night on the roof of a hotel in the French quarter the last time I was in NOLA, it was called the Chateau Dupri(spelling?) and we got on the roof because they leave the door to the staircase, and the latch on the roof unlocked. we had to fireman carry a dog up a ladder. but we drank steelies at like 50 feet up or something like that.
 
a long time ago, i was hitchiking back to sd from san francisco. we made it all the way to monterey without any problems and decided to keep traveling on through the night. we started walking out of the city and decided to walk the side streets instead of working the onramp for a ride (after the 5th cop had threatened to arrest us) so were walking down this street when we started to realize that we cannot hear the freeway anymore and we are now really getting into the suberbs so we decieded to jump a few fences to get back to the freeway and hopefully find a place to sleep for the night. after a couple miles we hear the freeway and see the final fence. we decided to keep going, to jump the fence and hitch a ride, hopefull not get arrested. i jumped the fence and my friend followed in the process catching a loose piece of metal and ripping into her ankle and cutting all the way up to mid calf. her boyfriend quickly jumped over. we field dressed her wound and decided to camp out there for the evening not realizing that we were feet away from the cars. i mean we could hear them and feel the pull of the freeway, in the morning all we had to do was walk the few feet to keep on moving ....this isnt really the craziest just the one that came to mind :)
 
Oh yeah the little sanctuarys you can find at night on the road. Ive spent many a night right beside roads. After awhile of doing it you can sleep fine or decent. Good too because it kind of forms a barrier for most people.
 
orion youth shelter in Seattle.

once on top of a small garage right on a busy sidewalk/road leading up to a city park.

More recently, I thought sleeping in tilled dirt field just alongside the road, opposite an a&w / space age gas kind of strange in hindsight. At the time I was just so exhausted I didn't gaf how visible I was.

I usually sleep like a baby if it's outside.
 
haha two nights ago, I was sleeping behind a dumpster at the library. The trash people woke me up that following morning, so I figured they wouldn't come again for a week and that I could sleep in the dumpster without being killed. The next morning, the cleaning lady for the public library went to go throw out some trash, and found me! haha poor woman. I felt bad for scaring her, but still thought it was pretty funny.
 
Strangest was in a short bus in a junkyard. But about to try and top that. I want to sleep in a abandoned brewery...
 
Training engine at the abandon train yard in downtown ATL.
Also in a highway divider with some trees, cars on both sides only feet away.
 
In the movie spring breakers there's a scene featuring James Franco at a picnic table in a park in largo Fl. Recognized it from when I slept there in 08'. Apartment complex pools and clubhouses. Baseball fields at parks. But my craziest place has to be an area in Clearwater Fl called high point, tons of woods there that were filled with bums that treated me and my ex like their children and taught us a lot. I remember one night a guy jumped into one of the ponds and caught a small alligator with just a hammer. Also, best shrimp I ever had cooked on a manhole cover out there

Reminds me of the time I spent in lake worth FL. Went to the fishing spot on the intercoastal and had some guys kick me some fish which I cooked on the golf course by the water woke up in two inches of water. Went under the bridge and got messed with by the cops but turned out ok.
 
I slept under a bridge with Savannah with my road dog and we get dogs siked on us by humbums in the middle of the night. Got run off from our spot and found a pair of festie kids who gave us their van to crash in and got us super drunk
 
Spending a long night in a boxcar one track from humping trains deep in roseville yard was pretty interesting. Like sleeping in the dragons lair, with the dragons fucking. Also heard a lot of feet and dog paws crunching around in the ballast, kinda funny how busy it was in there. Felt different then normal waiting for the train to go because I got on after a worker told me it wasnt moving for 11 hours... only thing pointed north though and I didn't want to be around in daylight.
 
I was in lake city fl sleeping under some church steps. Which, not really crazy until this lady walks up in full like, nun outift with a baby carriage full of messed up baby dolls, saying i need to find jesus. "Look at that beam and imagine jesus nailed to it, bleeding and dying for your sins"
this went on for about an hour before she let me go to sleep. well, the next night she says I have to find somewhere else to sleep tomorrow because shes in witness protection and theres some really bad people out ot get her and that i was in real danger. (cops did drive by at 2am both nights)

I decided to bail cause fuck that man. Crazy withness protection babydoll nun.
