It's MOSTLY loose dirt.. it's the exhibit barn!  The concrete seems  
to be the pathways... I don't remember too clearly, though.  I'm on  
dirt.  And the dirt is very loose and fairly thick (or was when I  
visited).  Y'all might want to visit the site.

Yup.  No doors to lock.

That's mostly just a fire safety thing, I think. Batteries aren't as  
likely to burst into flame when knocked over...  the manual does  
include contact info; the folks there are nice and don't bite.

Edwin!
