Looking down at Waimanalo on Google Earth, I noticed that the ranch at Saddle City, just makai of the Olomana Golf Course, seems to have been converted into houses or something. Does anyone know when this happened, and how come?
Back in the sixties they used to put on Wild West shows there - there was a little street of mock ranch houses (a bit like the facades the townsfolk build in Blazing Saddles!. Later it was a more ordinary ranch/riding stables. Frank Carvajal owned it, and sold it to Harry Mau in the early 70s.
I spent a lot of time hanging out there as a kid!
