first request for pit, and concerns

i have been away for a while (dusting myself off) due to a few injuuries and the such...

well, just got a call a few minutes ago, from a local fire department in taylorsville, indiana requesting me and my pit, Rehab 6 to help with a fund raiser. ironically this call came about 10 minutes after hobbling back in the house, after trying to walk on my pit. didn't go so well.

due to a slight mishap, i kinda shattered my leg in november, after having been on crutches from a knee injury in october. will be a while before i can walk without sticks, and i am hoping it will be in time to let the fire department use the pit. they are wanting to raise money to get a bus to go to the national fallen firefighter memorial, because a firefighter on the department, and friend of mine, passed away when returning from a run.

i am beyond a bit concerned on if i will be ready to work the event and how all this will work out. realizing i am beyond rusty, damaged, needing to make mods to the pit.

racing thru my mind are things like; will i be able to run around the pit with healing process, will the pit hold up (not a lot of cook time on the pit, it was finished late last year and haven't had a chance to really play with it, what would be a good setup of meat to cook for their fund raiser - thinking pulled pork sandwiches, and wanting to make sure it all comes together because of the cause.

anyone else ever look at their pit and get a bit overwhelmed before?

it seemed like the thing to do - the pit is built up on a trailer
and hobbling around it is a bit tricky

El Lobo,
I'm actually in the process of revamping a site just for it, will lat ya know when it is done. will have photos of build process and everything, including a video i did of it while being built. can't do much else, so might as well lol

i might have had a little captain that day... hehehe

i might even have to tap a keg in his honor
