Leo Carrillo Ranch, Carlsbad







Leo Carrillo was an actor in the 1930's.  He was in the show The Cisco Kid.  He owned the Leo Carrillo Ranch which at one time was a 2,538 acre working ranch.  It is now only 27 acres and it is owned by the City of Carlsbad.  There are about 2 dozen peacocks running around on the property and you can hear them making noises on the ground and even in the trees.  We even saw some baby peacocks.  Unfortunately, a lot of the buildings were closed because of a wedding so we didn't get to go inside his house and see the pool and gardens.  Here are some pictures.  When we go back again, I will post some more pictures.
