Hey Low,

I designed and built them with that "issue" in mind. There were NO

such incidents last year. When kids play, I strongly suggest they start

at mid-point. Then there's the drunks...

Seriously though, I deepened the pits with at least 8 inches of sand to

reduce the bounce and extended the side which ate 18" tall and they

project out 4' from the back stop.

That being said, when Murphy's around, he's around.

**Getting the 'Pits' Ready**

Their is something just wired wrong in my head.

I thought this was going to be a picture of some woman shaving her underarms.

looks great. Makes me miss my place I had in the country. I had a nice set of pits and a great fire circle. Many a corona lost their lives!

VFR2, Where was your place?

We have been on this 9.5 acre parcel since 2000. Moved up to norcal from

the socal area. I love this place. Even with all of the f'n work it takes to maintain. Always new ideas, always more to do than time allows.

I'm sure I will miss it too, when/if we decide to move elsewhere.
