What are YOUR flying fields?

[Rcplaneguy]

Hey everybody and thanks for checking out the thread!
I wanted to make a thread about where you guys fly! Currently I fly at a local park about the size of 2 soccer fields. Come winter time my buddy and I build an ice runway on the neighborhood lake! Here is a picture and a video!

We havent measured how thick the ice is, I'm guessing its anywhere from 4-8 inches (or 10-20cm)

I have a few different places. The first is an open area at the end of my street. There's a high school baseball field about 300 yards away as well. I like landing on the infield and having the whole outfield to play in. For our larger nitro planes, there's an old pipe yard in town with a few roads cut in between about 3 feet of brush so it's like little runways with an intersection big enough to turn a truck around. In the winter time we fly in the local elementary school gym.
