I know people who have camped there, but most do so at the RV park a
short distance away, can't remember the name of it, but it is close by
and it is where the pilot's meetings are held. Humidity, heat are high
enough that rarely were they able to get to sleep until after midnight.

I opt for an RV and keep the generator running near the flight line
until staging time is near.

OK, I already know the answer to this one. But my twin daughters are
upset that I've reserved a hotel room at Uvalde for the U.S. Std. Nats
in August; they would rather stay in a tent (back off guys, they're
both crewing for me and, besides, I'm told this phase will pass as they
turn into teenagers next year).

So, for the record, Does anyone ever camp at Uvalde in the late summer?
Is it practical? We do everywhere else, including Hobbs, but I'm
told--never having been to Uvalde before--that this is one place you
wouldn't want to try it.

What about RVs? If we talk my folks into driving down with their big
rig, are there hookups and a shower on the airport? Nearby?
