  Yep, that's true; maybe you'll give me some help on thursday as far as
the water level goes? You've definitely got more experience than I do with
this sort of thing. Mainly I just don't want to have it so deep that it'll
start running in the doors. :-)

  You could probably run over them without damaging anything, I plan
to put them way out by the edge of the airstrip though, and I'll
paint them with a "high impact" color. :-) They'll probably be
50-100 feet from the end of the pit. So we should be OK as far as
that goes.

: This'll be a great time as always... can't wait to get down there!

  Yep!! :-)
