Baby Boomers the world over were in love with Roy Rogers, Dale Evans, Trigger, Buttermilk and Bullet. They were our idols at the Saturday matinees, were in full color on our lunch boxes and very likely when we played "cowboy", their names were stamped on our cap pistols. We were transfixed by Roy’s easygoing drawl and his sleepy eyes, were impressed by his powerful horse, Trigger and wannabe cowgirls were in awe of Dale Evans as Cowgirl Queen. As for Bullet, well . . who doesn’t feel warm and fuzzy over a dog, especially a super cowdog?

Today a rare opportunity has presented itself that should make cowboy lovers everywhere perk up and listen. The Roy Rogers Double R Bar Ranch will be sold at auction on July 12th! You can either go to the location, on Roy Rogers Road (of course) in Oro Grande, CA, or you can bid online. Aside from the 67-acre ranch cum horse training facility, you’ll want to see the many items also being auctioned that once belonged to Roy and Dale as well as items donated by the Roy Rogers Museum and other Rogers’ memorabilia. The property has everything in place for a horse training facility including a 15-stall stable, ½ mile track, 10 pastures, paddocks, an electrified walker for 4 horses and a roofed round pen. The ranch has the capacity for sustaining over 150 horses.

The current owner has put utilities underground and added irrigation and a new well. Other buildings of interest are a 60’ x 40’ barn-theater that has been configured for movie viewing with a small living area, a kitchen and patio with an outdoor pizza oven. There are also two homes on the property; one at 1,700sf and the other at 1,200sf. And what would a cowboy ranch be without a bunkhouse!
