Mattison's Return to Visit Navasota Ranch

Alan and Gail Mattison from Gilbert, Arizona, came back to the ranch to check out all the completed Projects.  The Mattison served in last year, and it was wonderful to have time to laugh and remember the wonderful times we had at the ranch!  We loved working with them, and hope to work with them again, in the future!

( no I did not buy it).

This is the line to pay, it was growing faster

than they were ringing up the customers.

But the line did move.
