Tranquil Oasis parking

Headed to TO this morning a little after 11. The gate on Swartley was closed and no cars were in that parking lot. Have seen that gate get closed around 6 pm on weekends but never seen it closed during the day. The side gate was open to the back and Open was turned on. Wonder if the place next door is tired of their presence? Did not stop since didn't want to go to the back and park and risk other gate closing, and don't like the front door.

They have another "gate" access on 309 just past the building. There's a couple of warehouse type operations next to TO so they do tend to keep the gate locked after hours. I love the fact that parking is hidden but I've always wondered what the hell would happen if they locked the gates while you're visiting. Tough to explain....

Ive driven past here 1000 times but never stopped. You guys are talking about a back parking lot. But Is there a backdoor or just the one facing 309?

Waterboy - usually like your comments, but "Grow a set"???? Are you in high school?

Lots of mongers need the discretion of a back entrance. Not only to avoid the door in plain sight of a main road but also a place to hide a car that might be different enough to be noticeable. I would never park in front of TO or go in the front door, ever. So no, I will not grow a set.

To each his own I guess.

For me, one of the last things I need to happen would be for one of mine or my wife's friends to drive by and see my car or me and then tell her.

Do you drive a General Lee Charger with vanity plates?
The only way someone is going to notice your car from 309 is if they are looking for it. And if they are looking they'll find it whether you park out front or around back.

While not the General Lee, my truck does have noticable markings that wouldnt take a microscope to see. Discretion is the better part as they say.however there is a small lot actoss the side street with multiple businesses. I have used that on ocassion
