All camps receive guests at night?
Can I assume that all camps have some kind of night procedure? What do you do when it's past 10pm and you need to stop?

We try to always arrive before dark at any destination. We do this for a few reasons:
1) it is easier to get parked when the driver can see the person directing him into the sight and the person directing can see the trees and other obstacles easily.
2) it causes less of a disturbance for fellow campers who are already relaxing at their site.
3) we like to have daylight hours to get completely set up and be able to sit back and relax while cooking a meal on the grill. We only eat sandwiches while in transit so a meal is well appreciated once arriving at our destination.
If we make an overnight stop on the way to our destination we still make every attempt to arrive before dark. We try to reserve ahead of time and get a pull thru if possible so we can just whip in/out with ease and we will not disconnect from the truck if it is at least semi level. We do take the time to level side to side but try to position ourselves so disconnecting is not required. All of our travels leave from home (Central Texas) and as most know, it is still HOT any where you go from here for at least a day and half of driving. AC is a must so we don't do the Walmart overnighting. We just look for an overnight rv park with electric. We will usually hit the road again about 8am the next morning.
