Black Bart Hold Up Days
June 21st & 22nd
Where Did The Stage Coach Come From?

The home of Ron and Marie Scofield's wagon-making operation, Red Mule Ranch is a unique and beautiful place. Located near Fiddletown, California, its buildings, all constructed by Ron himself, are a monument to the craftsmenship of days gone by.
With few reminders of the modern age, Red Mule is a place to lose yourself in the richness of the American West. As a Cowboy Campfire guest, you can ramble through Marie's rose garden, and roam the buildings
and grounds where there is always
an assortment of horse-drawn vehicles. Together, Ron and Marie set the stage
and provide the hospitality for an unforgettable old west experience. |

One of Ron's most recent accomplishments. This beautiful "Taxi" is from Old Town Sacramento.
Ron has done everything....right down to the beautiful sceneic painting
on this coach. |
Red Mule Ranch's Livery Stable is where Ron stores his current projects that he either restores or builds from scratch. He uses all authentic procedures to bend the wood and hand makes any parts that are needed for the project. His talent as an artist, is what makes the final project unique and the work of art that it really is!

This beautiful Log Cabin was built by trees that Ron cut down himself.
He constructed the cabin with all the aspects of yesteryear!
He is truly a craftsman from an era gone by.
He is an American Treasure that we are proud to know.
