Hi Wade, I just thought you would like to know that that depression / ravine has had been filled.
The airport has just completed improvements to the land beside the runway on both sides and both ends. There is now more room for off runway excursions after moving TONS of soil
But most important, I glad to see you are doing well now

Yep it was a Piper Cherokee:)
