Ronald Reagan’s Rancho del Cielo:
From the Reagan Diaries:
Thursday, August 6 – Thursday, September 3 [1981]
…Each day we rode in the A.M. then in the afternoon Barney, Dennis & I with vol. help from Dr. Ruge & our mil. aides cut up downed limbs & built brush piles for rainy season burning. Ten days of this — our longest single stretch at the ranch. The S.S. agents have caps titled U.S.S.S. Mounted Patrol. They have become enthusiastic horsemen.
