Who are the Woodwards? ;D ;D ;D Just kidding. Welcome to our family. If you keep visiting here you'll get to know us quite well and may not want us back next year! Okay, okay, enough joking around. Glad to have you two here.

It was awesome meeting you and Trey. I love your beautiful ranch...it's a ROCKHOUND'S PARADISE for sure. Looking forward to my next trip.
In fact, I'd move out there if you'd let me homestead...

I'd even volunteer to help Trey build the new cabin, potty house, shower stalls, or whatever. Trey....if you want some help just drop me a note....I'd be pleased to come out for a few days and get it done.

Greetings from Arizona Jan and Trey,
If you have had a chance to read through the WWB thread, I guess you already know how much fun we all had at the ranch. Next year, you can bet twice as many people will be there because we all came home raving about the beautiful area, showing off our unique finds, talking about the bonding we all did and bragging about staying fat and happy the entire time we were there. My only regret was having missed the pot luck dinner and a chance to get to know the couple that so generously share all the secrets they have discovered at the Woodward. Honestly, if we had all just gone rockhunting blindly somewhere within the ranch, I'm sure we would have found some nice agates but thanks to the map you gave us before we headed out to rock hunt, we all brought home some of the most beautiful pieces I think your ranch has to offer. Thanks again for the hospitality, the two of you are the bomb in my book.
Jamie

Welcome to our little home, Jan & Trey! Thanks for letting us enjoy yours! I'm trying to find another weekend I can come down to enjoy the scenery...and maybe pick up a few things while I'm down there.

Hey Jan and Trey. Welcome to this rockhound place. Glad you guys joined us. Well, we can't thank you enough for having had us out there. We had a great time, and as you know, came back with lots of great rocks.
Let me know when you guys start building out there. I can take a few days off work and I'll gladly come on down to help out. I'm serious. I'm not just saying it. Talk to you guys later.

Hi Jan, and welcome. I can't add much more than has already been said here.
One thing though, and we all agreed. I was a little apprehensive about the trip at first, but when I pulled in and introduced myself to you and Trey out front, you both smiled and talked to me like we had been friends for twenty years. That set the tone for the rest of the week with both Y'all and the rest of the group. Thank you.
You will see my smiling face and cactus torn knee pads next year!!
Oops, one more thing. I don't think anyone got a picture of your fireplace. If so I haven't seen it and was not prepared when you showed it to me to get one. If possible could you post one?

I can do that! I'll make it wide enough for two and add a full length box in the center for all the rocks we collect before Dan sees them!
