I can understand your thinking Joe but living here in the old folks home everything is concrete and looks like a driveway. Lawns have been outlawed for three or four years. This is where most of my plane shots are taken and I have to dodge the fountain. It casts a shadow and tends to splash water on the planes. Our water is so hard the drops would pop holes in the covering. This is my number one place to fly, the El Dorado Dry Lake Bed. Today I was out there all day all by myself, 7 square miles of runway and open sky, all mine!! I also have four or five other fields to fly at but I really like it out there on the lake bed!! Makes it hard to run off the asphalt and even old farts can find the runway!!
