Pleasure to meet you Vanya. The name's Woody.

[In lieu of having his hat to tip politely at her, he salutes with two fingers and gives her a polite nod.]

I'm mighty grateful for this, miss. I'd like to get the lay of the land and it's not easy for someone my size to cover a lot of ground quickly.

[He steps onto her hand and kneels so that moving around won't knock him off balance, folding his hands in his lap.]
