Hope this works...............To many photos to load,one at a time... We did a Saturday run to Sweet Home,OR to hound petwood on the "Hollywood Ranch"...It was raining in Dallas and Independence when we left,but that wasn't going to stop us... A few car loads left from our area...We all met over there.........The weather there was just perfect,no rain,clouds were high,temps in the mid 50's.... Ran into Clayton and a few other hounders over there too............ Hollywood Ranch is a dream,just like a river flowing with petwood,you can pit dig(already provided)or surface hound,with tons of petwood all over the property... Long fun day with everybody scoring some nice petwood............. s29.photobucket.com/user/fossilman01/slideshow/Hollywood%20Ranch%20road%20trip-2015

I had thought about going down on Saturday until I got up and it was raining, didn't think it would be much fun crawling around in the mud. Looks like I should have went anyway. The hardest part about digging in the rain is the first few minutes until you find something and then you don't even notice the rain.
I want the BIG log!
tHANKS FOR POSTING THE PICTURES.

One of our buddies asked the employee why that huge log was still there (beautiful rings and solid too),he said the reason it's still there,is that nobody can afford it!! LOL Probably a $3 or $4000.00 log.....

If I wasn't traveling for work, I would have been there, now I am feeling sad that I had to miss it. Awesome pictures, wish I could have been there.
