The best part of going to a Science Ranch is the people. Those of us that are attracted to this kind of vacation tend to have a lot in common. We like being outdoors, we love science and other "nerd" topics, we have great senses of humor and we care for the world around us. With so much in common it becomes easy to celebrate our differences. Over the various trips I have made friends that I will keep for a long time to come.
