no dash/parking lights

Have a 97 F-150 supercab 4x. Headed down the interstate a few nights ago and the dash lights blinked and then went out, along with my parking lights. Headlights still work. Thank goodness I was pulling a trailer and the running lights still worked. My brake, reverse, blinkers, etc still work. I checked all the fuses under the dash and none were blown. ?????? What else do I need to check?

ok I found a blown fuse under the hood. Replaced it, and it was good for a few days. Blew again the other night, with no trailer hooked up. Replaced it and it immediately blew again??

Sounds like a short, which can be a pain in the @ss to find sometimes.
