I would really like to get a Woodville but here's my problem. I have had Woodvilles in the past, including an original Woody from May of 2010, and unfortunately they just don't survive in my environment. My wife will see one and say "that's nice, can I use it" and because I love her I give in. Unfortunately, she has a tendency to drop them repeatedly and although they are built well, and are sturdy, they are wood and eventually they break. As a matter of fact she just commandeered my raw tumbled Mini 2.1 and I am distraught because it is my favorite out and about REO. So although I would love to be in on this batch of Woodvilles I will have to pass. Such a shame.
I got one of your covers last year and still have it. I use the cold weather as an excuse to justify taking the mini woody out of the house as I normally don't!
I love my wife dearly also, but I also know her. I love her faults and all, but sometimes I must say no to protect her and myself from her own clumsiness. Mine routinely commandeers electronics (phones, camera's, laptops) that I choose based on function while she chooses hers on girlfriends opinions. I can live with these inferior items out of love of my darling wife. Woodvils, I simply show them off, let her admire their beauty, and pull my ManCard on this instance

My grown kids, and grand kids know better than to touch my wood REO's!!! Unless I am showing them that is.........! Nobody........no.....body....is gonna hurt MY wood REO's!
Believe my my wife's virtues far outweigh any negatives. She is a loving and caring person whom I love very much. Because of this love I try to make her life as easy as possible She also quit analogs over four years ago and for that I am very grateful. If the cost of her smoking is an occasional broken PV so be it. Besides I love my metal REOs so life is very good.
You are a very sweet and caring man. I love that!
I sold my daughter and my son wood REO's. THEY are more important than my need to have wood REO's in my possession.
Trust me I get the wife thing. Mine (and Doctor) will have influence on me quitting.
Hey "happy wife....happy life."
Trust me I get the wife thing. Mine (and Doctor) will have influence on me quitting.
You got that right!
