    That's what I was thinking - where are you going to put it? :-)
Maybe you could back it through into the back yard?

   BTW, if you are having difficulty finding a place for it and wouldn't
mind being a couple of hours away from it, I'm sure it would be OK if

so I'm sure we could find *some* place to tuck it out of the way.

  Will you be bringing it down to the BBQ and camping in style? :-)
