The Woodwards

Welcome to the Woodward web site, a collection of documents (if you can dignify some of them with the term) related to R. Carey Woodward Jr. and his immediate family. Like 99.9% of the Web, this is a work in progress (it most recently progressed in June 2011), so please forgive any rough edges.

Who are these Woodwards?

[Picture of Carey] [picture of Melanie] Carey (left) is an assistant professor at the University of Wisconsin--Fond du Lac. Melanie (right) is a medical claims processor at Anthem Blue Cross/Blue Shield. (Both pictures are from a run/walk in Oshkosh in April 2009.) Living with them in their 91-year-old house in Fond du Lac, WI are a dog, four cats, a varying number of fish, and sometimes a child or two. They enjoy walking, biking, and geocaching, and spend way too much time on facebook; Carey is also a runner, singer, a Morris dancer, and a homebrewer. They are both very active at St. Paul's Episcopal Cathedral.

[picture of Annie]
Carey's daughter Annie is 22 years old, and is a senior at Skidmore College. (This photo is from her prom in spring 2008.)  
[picture of Laura]
 

Melanie's daughter Laura Killberg is 21 years old and is a senior at UW--Stout in the fall; she is also an avid geocacher. (Photo is from fall 2007.)

[picture of Trip]
Carey's son Trip is 20 years old and is a junior at Coe College. His interests include Morris dancing, playing the flute, and electronic gaming. (Photo is from high school graduation, May 2009.)

Carey's parents, Roland and Virginia, live in Richmond, VA (where Carey grew up); the picture of them to the right is from a vacation during the fall of 2005. (Carey's sister Allin also lives in Richmond; his brother John lives in Atlanta with his wife Kristin.)

[Picture of Owen] [Picture of Owen] Owen [left] is a black lab/something-or-other cross (we're guessing collie); he's about 70 pounds and past his tenth birthday, but still thinks he's a puppy. From left to right, our cats are Libby ("Butterneck"), Mike, Joon ("Junebug"), and Max. Max, the oldest, loves to chew electrical cords (and hair braids, when he can get them), while Mike, the next oldest, is happy just to sit in laps and eat. We found Libby and Joon as kittens on Wild Goose Trail last spring; Libby loves attention (and paper), while Joon keeps to herself (but still manages to out-purr the others).

What else is here?

> Carey's professional pages. In addition to such fascinating items as his somewhat outdated curriculum vitae and publication list, it has a list of interesting astronomy sites. Last update: 5/2006
> The Woodward Morris page. Carey and Trip are both enthusiastic Morris dancers. Find out what it is and see them in action!
> The photo album is still under construction, but is up to three (short) pages--the St. Dunstan's 1999 Christmas pageant, Carey's and Melanie's wedding, and Annie's 2003 spring break visit--plus a couple of shots of Laura and Carey "rock" climbing at the St. Dunstan's parish picnic (6/3/2003).
> The Woodward's virtual refrigerator door: kid art and more! (No magnets, please.) Last updated 12/2000, and as with physical refrigerator doors, much of the material has been there a lot longer than that.
