My dad told me the story on these two shots. This was around '77-'78 on a ride to Myrtle Beach SC from FL. When they arrived in town there was some kind of convention or something going on & there was no hotel rooms available anywhere, so they rode to another city named Connor which was also showing nothing but 'No Vacancy' signs. At a service station an old black man was eager to help them & flagged down these two redneck guys (as my dad puts it, & who would know better? ha!) driving by. These two guys saw the local sheriff and whistled him over. The sheriff escorts them to this building and takes them around back which is where these pictures were taken, and tells them to camp here, no one will mess with you. A few times throughout the night a patrol car drove by and checked on them.
