There isn't much in Beaumont, except the old historic hotel and restaurant, and a grass airfield. I have flown in there for breakfast a couple of times, and you could taxi right out of the field, down the street a few blocks and park the plane next to the hotel. They have fly ins there from time to time. If you like airplanes, you might see one taxi down the street, and you won't see that in Wichita, for sure.

I re-read my post, and it sounded border line negative, which wasn't my intent. The town is definitely unique, hotel historic, and the last time I was there, several years ago, the food was Greeeeeeeat, as Tony the Tiger would say. You can go to Wichita any time, but the old hotel may not be there for ever. Have fun!
