Me too, know anyone with a plane? well our neighbor is a pilot but she flies big jets..

son tore out the peninsula when he was finishing up his last 5 min with the backhoe..it was full of barbed wire, steel fence posts and all kinds of crap..well he pulled all that out today..it was about 4' high and he levelled it down to flat and sloping into the pond at a gradual slope..tonight..just finished around 10 pm..said..we'll go back and see what it looks like when the sun comes up..Kinda funny..
