It makes me happy to see everything is going good out there. I will be moving to Germany in December, but I will most definitely come out there before I leave. The Ciccone family has always been a second one for me, and the ranch is by far my favorite place in the world. Miss you guys!

I was stationed at Ft. Stewart from 1997-2000. I loved going out to the ranch! It holds some of the best memories of my life, riding bulls (yes, I rode bulls not steers), trying to learn how to rope, and the friend I made will stay with me for ever. I return to visit every few years and Mr. Nino and Ms. Michelle always welcome me back with open arms! Thanks for sharing your home with us all!

I used to be stationed at Hunter Army Air Field and rode bulls there in the year 2000. It is a great place for soldiers to feel like they are home for some of them. People that are stationed there for a short while never forget the times they had at the NC Ranch. Thank You for the memories.

Thanks for the wonderful time our kids at Smiley Elementary had!!! As always, you and your cowpokes gave 100% when performing and working with the kids. It is easy to tell that you love what yoou do. Please inform the cowboys and cowgirls that we appreciate their time that they spent away from work and school. I think you may have some potential rodeo riders. It was an experience the students will never forget!

On: 2008-04-29 Ms. Parker/Smiley Elementary said:

Our students absolutely loved the show put on for them on our recent visit to the ranch!!! Thanks to all the cowboys and cowgirls who took off work to make all of it possible for our students. Again, thanks for being so wonderful to our students and our community.:)

Nino, It was good talking to you again. Look forward to roping with you in the future at some of the USTRC events. I'm sending the information out today on the Professional Armed Forces Rodeo Association. Everything in it is on the website at www.pafra2000.com. The RFDTV interview is set for August 3/4, 2007. As soon as I get more information I'll let you know. Do you have horses for Bareback and Saddle Bronc? I'm not sure how many riders we will have that will want to do that. I know my son will want to ride Bareback. Please inform all your cowboys about the PAFRA and I look forward to working with you. Bill Hogue PAFRA Dixie Circuit Director
