On the bright side, it's not like you're camping in Florida

Hopefully that won't be too uncomfortable at night.

When I was in flight school, we did a cross country to Sherbrooke Canada (which wasn't too far across the border) in August, and the evening temperatures were cool and crisp. It was very comfortable outside. Watkins Glen can't be more than 100 miles from there, right? :)

(Sherbrook is close to the US border; north of Burlington, VT/ east of Montreal.)

If this is too hot for you, recommend camping in Canada next year.

That would require more camping gear. And also bring into play another -- Late 80s Hokie 07/18/2019 08:04AM

Pee on the tent. The others will imagine a spring shower and cool off. Ahh! ** -- 48zip 07/18/2019 1:16PM
