In a refrigerator box.
I hiked into the woods with my little brother and a friend when I was 18. At dark It proceeded to snow and the car got stuck. We went to an old shack to spend the night and Inside we found a cardboard refrigerator box.
We carefully arranged ourselves in the box and closed it best we could. We fought the cold quite well and survived the night.
This was my first major lesson in planning.

I had to think back on that one. And then I remembered when
I was preschool age. And I had been with my parents fishing
for the day, along with an aunt and uncle. For some reason,
the adults decided to stay overnight and not drive back the
next day. The fish weren't biting that day and so they wanted
another chance at them. We had blankets spread on a little
grassy spot on a bank and the adults decided to gather up
all of the fir boughs they could reach and make mattresses.
And my aunt had blankets for some reason in their car. So
there was just enough to go around. And that night I slept on
a very cushy bed with fir boughs underneath and the stars
above on a nice summer night. That was the only time in my
life, I slept under the stars. And I've never forgotten it. Near
the river, it was quite cold in the wee hours. And it left quite
an impression on my mind. It was overall, very enjoyable.
That was around 1948 or 49. After that tho, mom always
made sure she had a cabin to sleep in, no matter where we
were. LOL.

When I was 12 I was traveling with my 13 year old sister and 5 other teenage friends from Los Angeles to a foreign country. We had to stop in Paris to switch airplanes, but the flight got delayed and Air France didn't want to be responsible for us being in a hotel without an adult, so they made us sleep on the airport seats! The airport was empty overnight so we had a blast running around screaming and when we woke up the airport was getting full of travelers but it was a lot of fun!

In the closet when I was a kid, often, it was safe, no one could find me there, I used to pile up clothes and sleep under them.

Other then that in the Seattle airport after missing my connection to Colorado - and in the dentist chair while he was working on my teeth --

And when I lived up north and drove "home" with the kids, we pulled into the parking lot at Mr Robson at 4 AM and parked between two semis and slept for a few hours, did that several times, I felt it was safe with all the truckers there also sleeping.

My well known place to certainly get stable sleep may be contained in the mattress. The strangest place i've got ever slept might the two be the rest room (yet that became yours) or the trampoline . . . . . long tale. LL

A bench on the platform of the Long Island Railroad at the Saint Alban's station. I was dead drunk at the time and my "alarm clock" was wearing a uniform, a badge and a revolver. Fortunately I was not placed under arrrest.

In my truck, I locked my self out of the house. Had to wait on the landlord to let me in the next morning. I made sure after that, that I had a spare key hidden outside. Thank goodness it was summer time.

In an unfinished basement, way back when I was in college. For a month I totally ran out of money and was too proud to ask my parents for any.
