It was nice flat ground (at a huge camp ground) but it still was much different than showing indoors. I now train my dogs indoors as well as on grass.
I show at one place in Texas-Nolan River. Rings are set up on dirt (talk about your dogs needing a bath as soon as you get back to the motel room). Anyway, everytime I've shown one of my dogs there, they love it.
