how would you enter this pattern?

What would you do? (Yeah, yeah, you'd land on the asphalt, but dang,
it's rough! And grass is where Cubs belong.)
If I insisted on grass, probably enter on an extended left base. Has the bonus of putting
you about on the 45 for 10.
Personally, I don't like the 45. There are much better methods, and I'm not going to fly
miles out of my way and backtrack just to get on the sacred 45 if I'm on the other side of
the airport. Use the radio, your eyes, and your brain, and don't cut people off without
asking them politely.
