San Diego Local:: Leo Carrillo Ranch

One topic that is always of particular interest around here is cowboys. Bennett is fascinated with tales of Western heroes, gunslingers, and rodeo riding. When I heard about the Historic Leo Carrillo Ranch in Carlsbad, I knew we would need to explore it on of our "field trips." It is a real, former working ranch that was owned by actor Leo Carrillo. The grounds are gorgeous, and the old structures are so fascinating. We walked around and talked about the cowboys, and horses that used to live in this magical place. There are stunning peacocks roaming the property and plenty of places to sit for a picnic and enjoy the scenery. I don't know how I'm just now visiting this, but I can't wait to go back. San Diego gem!
