Ritchie D. Lavender and Jerry E. Ross appeal their convictions on two counts of a three-count indictment. ^[1] Their offenses were laid as committed, during October 1977, “within the territorial jurisdiction of the United States of America,” specifically, on the Blue Ridge Parkway in the Western District of Virginia.

They were arraigned under the first count for the unlawful and felonious breaking and entering of the dwelling of another, with intent to commit larceny, contrary to Va. Code § 18.2-91 (1975 Repl. Vol.), as embraced by the Assimilative Crimes Act, 18 U.S.C. §§ 13 and 2. ^[2] The second count accused the appellants of grand larceny of property “having a value greater than $100, all in violation of 18.2-95 Code of Virginia as authorized by Title 18, United States Code, Sections 13 and 2.” (Accent added.)

The convictions of each appellant were consolidated for sentencing. The District Court ordered Ross imprisoned for a period of 12 years, with parole eligibility after three years. Lavender was institutionalized for treatment and supervision pursuant to the provisions of 18 U.S.C. §§ 5010(b) and 5017 (1976).

Ample evidence supports the convictions on both counts. However, on the second there is an apparent, although not real, infirmity, in that, it rested on the Virginia statute, as if the Assimilative Crimes Act permitted it. Actually, the[*641] State law was not invoeable because the Count 2 offenses were already “punishable by . [an] enactment of Congress” —-18 U.S.C. § 661 (1948) ^[3] — and so excluded from assimilation. United States v. Pardee, 368 F.2d 368, 372 (4th Cir. 1966); King v. Gemini Food Services, Inc., 438 F.Supp. 964, 966 (E.D.Va. 1976), aff’d, 562 F.2d 297 (4th Cir. 1977), cert. denied, 434 U.S. 1065, 98 S.Ct. 1242, 55 L.Ed.2d 766 (1978). However, the indictment and evidence plainly informed the defendants of the charges and they were tried under Count 2 conformably with the Federal statute. Thus the conviction under Count 2 is not invalidated. United States v. Word, 519 F.2d 612, 618 (8th Cir.), cert. denied, 423 U.S. 934, 96 S.Ct. 290, 46 L.Ed.2d 265 (1975). Nevertheless, since the convictions of each defendant were joined for sentencing, in order to avoid any question of the validity of the sentences, we vacate all of them on the two counts, and remand the case to the District Court for the resentencing of Lavender and Ross on both counts.

The evidence is clear and simple. While proceeding along the Blue Ridge Parkway — a United States park — in their “Winnebago” mobile home, the occupant-family stopped at an overlook to take a hike. Returning to lock the vehicle, the owner observed two men drive to the overlook, get out and stand by their car. Afterwards, the Winnebago’s owner rejoined his family. When they came back to the vehicle, they discovered its door lock had been broken and $125 in legal currency, mostly crisp, new money, and a phony $20 bill had been stolen from it. Acting on a description broadcast by rangers, a park technician stopped defendants’ car and noticed a fake $20 bill in plain view on the front seat. Defendants consented to a search of their automobile. Several new, genuine $20 bills and some screwdrivers were seized.

Regarding the breaking and entering conviction, we reject defendants’ claim that the evidence was insufficient because the mobile home was not a “dwelling” at the time of the theft. It is enough for us to state that the Winnebago’s owner testified that he used it as a home when he was on the road. Additionally, it was appropriately equipped for that purpose.

We also overrule defendants’ argument that proof that the offense had occurred on the Blue Ridge Parkway was not adequate to establish that it happened within the “special maritime and territorial jurisdiction of the United States,” as defined in 18 U.S.C. § 7 (1952). Although defendants are correct in pointing out that the District Judge declined to take judicial notice that the Parkway was so located, this court may, and does, take judicial notice of commonly known facts, especially where there is testimony, as here, to the éffeet that the illegalities took place on the Parkway. Markham v. United States, 215 F.2d 56, 57 (4th Cir. 1954), cert. denied, 348 U.S. 939, 75 S.Ct. 360, 99 L.Ed. 735 (1955). We, therefore, judicially notice that the place of the crimes was within Federal jurisdiction.

Accordingly, the findings of the appellants’ guilt under both counts are affirmed and the case is remanded for resentencing on both counts.

Affirmed in part; Vacated in part; and Remanded.
