As Elvis never visited Australia, my friend who loved him so much spent lots of time and money following him round the US in the 70's going to as many concerts as possible. Elvis noticed that she was in a wheelchair and had someone hand deliver one of his scarves to her. It's her most prized possession. How sweet and thoughtful of him. Thanks for all your great videos.
I lived next door to the ranch in my trailer park on Hwy 301 & Nail Rd. We watched them ride horses out there./ My Horn lake school bus stopped at the gate every morning. :) We later lived in a little trailer park in Walls MS. When that was a 4 way stop sign there, my friend lived in a house right across the road from the ranch house. We remember seeing the trailers Elvis placed out there too :) We heard that while riding out there ,Pricilla lost a very valuable ring near the lake one day. I wonder if it's still there? :) We heard that the 'boys' had that BBQ pit built for Elvis as a gift. Pause at 9:41 and you can see our trailer park in the top right area in the far distance. Mans Trailer park, we lived there two different times in the mid & late 1960s. Thanks Billy ,you brought back a lot of great old memories brother :)
I love seeing the Circle G Ranch. I am sorry it wasn't maintained. The ranch could be another historical site to cherish.. whoever bought this farm has a treasure and I would love to see this one day. Thank you for sharing.
My Daddy and Uncle bought it from Elvis in 1969...we lived there from 1969-73...Daddy built the big pink Clubhouse, which was originally white. It was North Miss. Recreation Club. Daddy (Lou McClellan) and my uncle ( Jimmy McClellan) also built the pool. My mother and Dee were friends....we went to Whitehaven Church of Christ with Dee and her 3 sons for many years...Ricky Stanley and I were friends for many years.
Sad I wouldve kepted it up just cause Elvis did reside there but theres plenty of houses gone to ruin I see them everyday so sad All I can say is shame on those for letting this house go down
Another bonafide stone cold winner of a video! Awesome. I give you a ton of credit for going out there. I have read and seen a bunch of things that indicated venturing onto that property would get you arrested, etc. Glad to see no one bothered you. WELL DONE!!
This shows he wanted a simple life with his beautiful little Wife, Kids, and Family. But that couldn’t happen because he had too many people he had to take care of. His heart was too big. God bless him
He could have had it, if he had stopped the horrible Parker man taking half his money and did not waste his money. He could have lived a lovely life in this place..if he had wanted it.
I was at Rancho Circle G on Elvis week in 2013 It was a sadness for me to see this place where Elvis spent the happy times of his life! it's a shame they haven't reclaimed this place as it means a lot to the fans. Thank you so much Spa Guy for providing these historical facts about our King! God bless you!
Omgosh, I loved every second of this video. I have been so curious about this ranch. It is amazing that Elvis didn't own the place that long yet no one has really done anything with the property. How is it that you were not stopped? It was great not just seeing the bridge but you walked us over it, too. And the cross was just so spiritual. It reminded me of the cross that was used for his mom's grave. I did get to see that Circle G sign when I was at the Hard Rock in Memphis, too. Thank you sooo much for this video!!! 5 stars! And the drone footage was pricelesss!
He was taking care of everyone he knew. I can understand why he didn’t have all the money. Your videos, and many others talk about how generous he was. Over 300 cars, he just gave away. That’s cars. Not trucks and houses, Ect, Ect. He had everything and wasn’t afraid to give it all away. He gave a little girl in a wheelchair his ring right off his finger. I wish I was alive back then. I would have loved seeing him in concert. A much better time then today.
Hey Billy. I live right down the road from the circle G ranch. I have always wanted to check it out. Love your videos, but really love all the elvis videos. Thanks for doing all this. It's kind of like your doing an elvis documentary and showing all these Elvis history moments that have had little to no publicity. Good stuff !!!
Thanks Zackman, I have always been attracted to that ranch and been many time since the late 90's.. Been over the fence many times.. Tighten Up, Spa Guy
Elvis was a giver if you were at a car lot and he was there and bought a car and if he seen you trying to buy that car he'd buy it for you, that's how generous he was he was a great man and never ever forgot he was poor when he was a young boy, R.I.P. elvis god only takes the best that's why he took you god bless your soul. 🎤🎤🎤🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎤🎤🎤🎤🎤
But he wasted so much money! Colonel Parker took half and wasted it. Why did Elvis not see what the horrible man was up to. Elvis buying everyone a truck, then they all leave the ranch after a few months. It is all so wasteful. He may have been very generous, but he was also extremely wasteful.
Hey spy guy, it's so sad to see how things fall apart, I love to remember the happy times with Elvis, you just make me smile seeing how you go about what you do, just very cool 🖒
Thank You John.. I have visited the Circle G about 10 or 12 times since the late 90's and really enjoy it overtime I go.. I feel a connection to it even though Elvis really wasn't there very long.. I think he bought it thinking he would really use and found out he was just too busy to have it and Graceland.. There was not enough time for both and the cost of keeping both up was a bunch.. Spa Guy
I can understand that, I was there in 2015 with the family we had alot of fun looking around the ranch, just trying to think of when Elvis walking the grounds,
The barn restrooms were sooo cute when we moved there...they had mares on one and. stallions on another...the mare one had a pic of a horse with a bow in her hair painted on the door...the stallion one had a horse blowing steam out of his nose! Not sure if Jack Adams had it painted or if Elvis did. So cute because children would ask me " Which one am I?"lol
Thanks so much for making this video. I went to Graceland twice (2018 & 2019) for the first times of my life and was always curious about the Circle G and wondered where it exactly was and what condition it was in. Love the aerial shots too.
I have been watching these videos for the last couple weeks and have just been so delighted. Being a huge Elvis fan myself, watching these allows me to see things I could never be able to see and I have only read about in books. Thank you so much! You are blessed for sure to be able to pursue your interests!
casey, think of it like this...elvis was a sharp guy, he was no mug, and he knew he was paying way over for everything he bought, so, i think this was his way of sharing his wealth with the people....
I just get so invested mentally knowing how much fun took place on that ranch ! The love for horses and the freedom enjoying riding the horses you bought to have a ranch and friends all hanging out ! Omg to just know how much life on that property and the love and enjoyment ⚡️🤩🙌🏼🐴🐴🐴🐴⚡️⚡️⚡️
But all for just 5 months!! Such a waste of money, the trucks, mobile homes, horses, the bridge! All for 5 months! Elvis had a throw away culture, he did not invest and value.
I agree Marilyn, someone with Presley Estates should have kept this place up! Surely places belonging to Elvis would or should have more important Historical value to be kept up! This is very sad! TCB
What a treat to see this! If you've never read Donna Lewis' book, Hurry Home Elvis, volume II, you would probably find it very interesting. Her dad George Lewis worked as a gate guard at Circle G Ranch and it was he that built the BBQ grill for Elvis. Donna spent time with her dad while he was guarding the gate and she makes many references to the goings on at the ranch. She also mentions in her book about the bathrooms and how they were labeled "mares" and "stallions". There is a lot of valuable information recorded in her books. Thanks for sharing!
May, That sounds like great reading... I wish I had known some of those facts when I was making this.. Mr Lewis is in the picture of the Circle G Ranch truck.. He is wearing a EP Shirt.. I had no idea he built it.. I wonder if he was still alive.. You really know your stuff.. You Rock!! Spa Guy
Donna's books are out of print, but you can still find volumes one and two, for a pretty penny. Mr. Lewis did pass away years ago, but Donna is still alive. She spent a lot of time going to the Memphian Theater when Elvis would rent it out and she mentions this frequently in her books. I'm just wondering if you have any plans to go there and make a video? I think it is now the Playhouse Theater. I know you are very busy, but it might be something you want to do in the future. Thanks so much! YOU ROCK! Keep on TCB!
I have actual filmed there but never gotten inside.. It i very different than it was then.. They removed the seats way into the audience area for the stage for play productions so the places Elvis would sit are no longer there.. I still plan on going inside I have just never caught anyone there.. Been there about 3-4 times.. I will def do a video about it though..
Mary, thanks for adding here the name of the guy who built the grill at the Circle G. I've seen Donna post before on line that her dad was the one who built it...I just couldn't remember her name 'til you posted...thanks, and I'm sure Spa Guy appreciates the additional info as well.
You're welcome Penny! I wish Donna would consider writing another book. She was the ultimate fan and reading about her and her familiy's life (at that time) is amazing.
I was at graceland and circle g ranch in late 1978 went in ranch house saw memoribila of elvis and pricilla walked across that bridge I still have a little stub where you bought a small piece of the land l touched elvis robe weren't supposed to but I did love that man forever thank you for the vidieo
Great video! At that time when he bought Circle G I worked as an assistant service manager at Oakley Motor Company, a local Ford dealer, 1064 Union Avenue in Memphis. One night just before 9PM closing, a rep from Elvis came into the showroom and contacted a floor salesman about buying some Rancheros. The salesman was very new to the dealership and hadn't had a very productive month. He made an initial deal and eventually we delivered 12 to the Elvis fleet. I wasn't there - I went home at 6PM but it was the talk of the Union Avenue dealers the next day! Also, my cousin worked at Sears in Whitehaven and sold several high-end lawn tractors/mowers a day or so later. That purchase was by credit card and almost didn't happen until a supervisor was contacted at home. He had to come to the store and verify the purchase. Enjoy your excellent videos..
Carl, Do you remember the name of the salesman? Did you ever have anyone bring them in for service? I worked a Service Manager at a Ford Dealership in North Carolina before I moved to Nashville for about 17 years.. Let me know.. Spa Guy You can email direct if you would like billy@thesgnetwork.com
Hi. Sorry, I can't remember the name of the salesman, but do recall the night sales manager was Gene Berretta, who actually had to take over and help. As you may know, salesmen came and went quickly (ha) and a few became permanent for longer times. The only other thing I recall was that there was an older Ford Bronco that was used as a shuttle on the Mansion property but wasn't licensed to use on the street. For servicing and repairs we sent a wrecker and towed it to our shop and returned it the same way. Once I got to go and noticed Vernon had a garage shop and was restoring old cars. Just saw that briefly. Hope that is worthy info! Have a great weekend.
This is so sad, I like to think if he'd have moved on to the farm full time, maybe he could have relaxed and got clean and lived longer. Would be nice to think of Lisa Marie purchasing it back in her youth and raising her kids there. Oh well so many what ifs when someone leaves us way to soon.
I Lived 5 miles from the place for 17 years....NO WAY would Lisa even think about buying it. The road in front is insanely busy...not that nice of a neighborhood now
Just now finding this video in 2022! Fantastic information and thanks for the timeline-I thought Elvis owned the ranch for a longer period of time. Definitely an “in and out”!
Spa Guy, you did such a fabulous job of bringing this to us. I could not help but feel melancholy afterwards, having felt that we were walking alongside you and wishing that Elvis was still with us. I can see that there was a lot of promise with the Circle G until Elvis snd everyone lost interest. It very well have could have been an excellent place to escape to and get away from the everyday pressure of being the King of Rock and Roll.
Ok, If you want to interview and old man going on to 85 years old I'll do the best I can. My Dad had a band in Memphis called (Doc McQueen and the Rock and Roll trio) the members were Johnny Burnet, Dorsey Barnet Paul Burleson and my dad. I found our that Elvis also preform with Johnny Burnet's group before they started playing with my dad. The practiced every night in an old house 24 North Cooper ST. in Memphis. Sometimes when I'm in Memphis I park across the street from the old house and just listen. Even though they are all gone now I can still hear the music coming from the old house. My Dad played the piano for President Ronald Ragan and Nancy Ragan in the white house. He turned the living room into a recording studio at 24 north Cooper St. and help kick start Rock--n--Roll in Memphis.
James I am excited that you will do this.. What you witnessed is important and it will be Greatly appreciated by the fans.. I will get with you this week and come up and see you.. Spa Guy
Hey Spa Guy! This is another fantastic video you have done! I cannot believe how close the house was to the road.....but wow, what a beautiful piece of property and photographs certainly do not do it justice! The Glory did a nice job of giving us a beautiful perspective. Your commentaries are excellent.....I share in your enthusiasm and joy for Elvis history!! Keep up the good work, and thank you again!
Hi Spa Guy. Another great and fascinating video. How poignant to see the Circle G as it is today in some disrepair and see pictures of it with Elvis, Vernon and their family and friends enjoying in its former glory. That bridge practically gave me goosebumps seeing it and picturing Elvis and Priscilla crossing it. Thank you so much for the time and effort you put into this video and all your other ones. Keep up the great work! 🥰
Excellent video as always Mr. Spaguy! I was intrigued by that guitar case that was in the Circle G Ranch auction (24:42) and I checked and the two girls bought it for $15!! What a steal!!
I got contacted by a friend today and he knows where that case is and they were pointing at the Elvis Autograph on the door flap.. I will do a story on it in the future.. That was a Steal! Thanks, Spa Guy
I met Elvis many times while I lived there. The bridge was NOT built by Elvis....Jack Adams built that...This was Jack's summer home. I had a mini bike that I rode all over the property. I was in high school the whole time we lived there. In fact, in my junior year class favorite pics were taken there...it was then in excellent condition. We had Open Horse Shows there in the 70's....we had quarter horses and shetland ponies.
Hi I am a new subsciber an Elvis fan since I as 13 now nearly 72.My greatest wish would be to see Graceland but out my reach.Just want to say a big thank you for the chance to see the Elvis videos you put on here.....awesome!!!! Thanks....
Way cook video sir not knowing too much about Elvis other then who he was and what he accomplished. The past week I have been learning about his life with his wife family and friends, t I never knew of this house until listening to Priscilla's audio book . To see this house still standing and knowing they used to be here is very cool. Thank you for taking time to upload this for all of us that are fascinated by this man's life and what he's done.great drone footage as well it really showed off the property well
A good friend of our family was a mechanic at one of the dealerships in Memphis when Elvis went on the farm truck buying spree. I dont remember how many he bought from that dealership that day, but Mr. Mike said Elvis came through the shop and shook all the mechanics hands.
This would be Awesome place to turn into wedding chapel by the cross and build a reception hall there as well. That house could be moved away from road and fixed up.would be great honeymoon house for couples to re t as well. Beautiful place. If I had the money I would love to do that.
@Spa Guy. Another phenomenal vlog! I keep thinking eventually this guy has got to either run out of good ideas but you keep on goin like that energizer bunny! Thank you for the great content, as usual from you. You are most definitely one of my vloggers, not that i need to tell you...... but keep these informative videos comin!
Thank You Coochman, I have plenty more.. I am like you I start thinking wow I can't do a better one than that then I find another Gem... Thanks for the encouragement It means a lot... Spa Guy
Thank you so much for this beautiful video,I hadn't even heard of The Circle G Ranch so I have learnt something new today. Beautiful when Elvis bought it I bet.....So sad to see it as it is today. Thank you once again.
This takes most of us back to a great time when we had no money. But all families would get together and enjoy a weekend together. I wish his mother would have lived a longer. Think things would have turned out differently. Like he could have lived into his 70’s. Great video!!!!!!!
Excellent video. Very well done on this glimpse into somewhere you don't often get the chance to see. I had been to the Circle G on a couple of occasions in the 2002-2007 period but want ever able to find anyone to give me permission to go and see the BBQ structure. It's a shame to see it deteriorating in such a way. I was told by one of Elvis' friends (Charlie Hodge or Joe Esposito - I cant quite remember), that 'the guys' paid for the BBQ pit to be built as a present to Elvis. Also, did you know that Elvis actually sold the Circle G twice! He originally sold the ranch and the new owner was not able to keep up payments on the property, so apparently (under the law at that time) ownership automatically reverted to the previous owner - Elvis!
Javelin1835, I did not know it was sold twice.. I will look into it.. I did know that the guys had the grill built in fact by the guy in the picture standing leaning on the Ranch truck Mr. Lewis.. Thanks for watching.. When I filmed the BBQ segment I had just driven through the gate that was open and ran up to the grill so my adrenaline was really pumping there is no telling what I said.. Spa Guy
Spa Guy, I found your videos around 45 days ago. I love seeing what (relative to EP) things are like now. I've been to Graceland several times, Tupelo on a few occasions, Circle G was a pass by look as a child. I last visited Memphis and Graceland 8-10 years ago. It's changed alot over the years. More questions about Circle G...what happened to the motel/Mexican restaurant? I'll come back to this post after I search for the urbexers with video of it.
And he lived there for a few months! What a shame, and sad to just keep moving in, as if nothing is good enough. They built the bar b q hoping that this was Elvis’s home.
I am a newer subscriber and now a follower of yours Spa Guy. Thank you for what you do as a fellow Elvis fan. I have been a huge Elvis fan since I was a youngster. I would love to be able to see the Circle G myself in the near future. Also thank you for your review about The Guest House at Graceland. I had ready considered staying there on my next visit to Graceland until I watched your review on it. Thanks again. :-)
According to Priscilla some of the happiest days of their marriage (place of honeymoon) were spent at the Circle G Ranch. It is prescient that many of the structures still remain that were there when Elvis owned it. Let's trust the new owners are able to revamp and provide it for access to the public!
Thank you SpyGuy for sharing your stories to all of us Elvis fans. I have loved Elvis since I was a kid watching his movies and TV specials with my mother brothers n sisters and friends. We are were and still fans of Elvis music. I seen him in 1976 last concert in Atlanta Ga. I was 14 yrs old. I have alot of his albums. My mothers and my 45s that I have held on two since I was 9 yrs old. My younger brothers would get hot wheels. And my mother would buy Elvis 45s for me and for her self. So we took time sharing each other records and always made sure to give each other back thier on 45. Then I would start buying his albums. I have 33 blue Hawaii and no telling of how many other albums I have of Elvis.I had pins t shirt big poster pic of him dressed in blue with his blue eyes that hung over my bed. I had a Elvis bust that was paintedfrom the shoulders up. I had Elvis pics all over my bedroom walls with pics of other singers.I wish I knew where all my stuff was today. I would have never gotten rid of any of his stuff from the last concert I had seen of him in person. Elvis was King to Rock n Roll music. And he is still King to this day of Rock n Roll music. No one can come near his music. No other musicans or todays music. We love Elvis 💖 and always will. No matter what he did or didn't do in his life has nothing to do with his music. He singed from his heart. He loved his mother he loved his wife and he so loved his daughter Lisa Marie. So thank you SpyGuy for bringing us info on the King of Rock n Roll. Elvis was not a GOD he was a real human being. And ppl would not leave him alone. Standing at his gate 24/7. I love his cousin Billy n his wife Joe and Billy the Memphis kid. These are true ppl who spent time with him and Pricilla and Lisa Marie her cousins. I want to say Thank you again for all your hard work. And Thanks to Elvis for all his music from the blues hiilybilly music to Rock n Roll . By putting his on sound to his music and to Gosble music.
Billy this was most excellent! Being a not so hardcore fan I never knew very much about Circle G. Thanks for the knowledge my friend. I am really enjoying your channel btw.
Another great job with LOTS of info !!!! You do such an amazin job with every one of these videos and I wanted to let you know WE Elvis fans definitely appreciate YOU for it ! Thanks Spaguy.
Que pena , estou adorando seus vídeos , mais sou tão fã e fascinada em tudo que envolve meu querido Elvis Presley , que tento absorver os conteúdos ,mesmo não sabendo inglês.Sou brasileira e adoraria que seu vídeos fossem com legenda em português .Ontem descobrir seu canal , estou amando .Boa tarde spa Guy.
Recently subscribed to your channel, very glad I did that. I am so thankful that I have been able to see so much and learn so much more about the king's life. I wanna say to you bud thanks again for all this pictures and information that you always provide to millions of fans worldwide.
Love it!👍 Hearing stories about Vernon talkin about what Elvis did with His money, gets under my skin. Can’t stand it. All Vernon had to do was sell some of Elvis’s shoe laces if he was so worried🤦♂️
So two things about this is the barbecue pit was gift from the guys to Elvis. The white cross was put there from the original owner for his daughter that he lost.
Hi Spa Guy, Again great video thank you so much for sharing this and taking the time to record all of this for history, such a shame to see Elvis`s beloved ranch fall into disrepair, another piece of Elvis History that should have been bought by EPE and preserved for future generations
Hello Spa Guy, I'm from Brazil, I love your videos. Amazing the feeling that they give me. At times it is as if you can feel the emotion that the people there have felt. Thank you so much for this incredible work my friend!!!
Thank You Fernando, I want you to feel the emotion in every video because my videos are real.. I do them without a script and simply tell the story.. Thanks for the encouragement.. Spa Guy
Thank you Spa Guy for yet another awesome Elvis related video. I always look forward to watching your videos whenever I get a notification that you've uploaded something new. You make it possible for those of us who will probably never get a chance to see these things in person to see them here on UA-cam. I wonder if anyone has ever tried to locate that ring that Priscilla lost in that lake. It would be pretty cool to see it recovered. Thanks again Spa Guy for this interesting and intriguing video. I will definitely continue to keep watching and liking any future Elvis videos. 🙂
Last summer they opened the property for one afternoon, they had horse back riding, music and great opportunity for some pictures of the cross and a bridge over the lake! It’s a beautiful place there is even a bbq pit with EP in the bricks
Great video! I walked the Circle G property around 1980(yes--I was trespassing)lol I remember that the outside bathrooms were marked "Stallions" for the men and " Mares" for the women. The place was vacant at that time but there were still saddles in the stables(not sure who they belonged to). I always wondered what the large pink-colored building was. It's interesting that it was a Mexican restaurant but it had been used as a residence when I was there. There was an old Cadillac under the carport. There was also a large swimming pool to the left of the restaurant structure. It was constructed like a public swimming pool.Is it still there? I would love to know the history of that property
Hello Jerry, Yes that pool is still there and you are right it looks like something a YMCA.. I am working on a video about the entire history before and after and have found out some interesting things that will be in the video.. Stay Tuned.. Spa Guy
I drive by this "pink barn" everyday!! I always wanted to trespass and go see it... I was always told it was Elvis's Barn!!! now I know it wasn't.. Thanks for the video!! do you know if anyone is going to restore the property still?
I’m speechless, just speechless that Elvis’ estate would ignore this property like it meant absolutely nothing in Elvis’ legacy/history. Wow. I wonder their reason for not including this property in Elvis Legacy? It was certainly a meaningful to the King & i really enjoyed the video!
I just stayed at Horn Lake this weekend and visited Graceland, I didn't know anything about Circle G until after the Graceland tour. I wish I had looked the ranch up and at least drove by it. I appreciate your video bc it helped me see what I missed.
I agree, this place was more Presley & Pricilla than Graceland. I’m so upset the house has deteriorated, Elvis was an icon to a generation of young kids , who’ve grown to be adults as I have and I loved Elvis, I was one of his fans the year he died I couldn’t believe it. I mourned for days.
As Elvis never visited Australia, my friend who loved him so much spent lots of time and money following him round the US in the 70's going to as many concerts as possible. Elvis noticed that she was in a wheelchair and had someone hand deliver one of his scarves to her. It's her most prized possession. How sweet and thoughtful of him. Thanks for all your great videos.
Jamison Gee ❤🎶
C etait différent elvis 1 autre monde
I lived next door to the ranch in my trailer park on Hwy 301 & Nail Rd. We watched them ride horses out there./ My Horn lake school bus stopped at the gate every morning. :)
We later lived in a little trailer park in Walls MS.
When that was a 4 way stop sign there, my friend lived in a house right across the road from the ranch house. We remember seeing the trailers Elvis placed out there too :)
We heard that while riding out there ,Pricilla lost a very valuable ring near the lake one day. I wonder if it's still there? :) We heard that the 'boys' had that BBQ pit built for Elvis as a gift.
Pause at 9:41 and you can see our trailer park in the top right area in the far distance. Mans Trailer park, we lived there two different times in the mid & late 1960s.
Thanks Billy ,you brought back a lot of great old memories brother :)
Is it just me...but this makes me feel so sad. I know it’s a lifetime ago, but such a beautiful place should not gone to ruin.
Agree.
It was a business
I hate vernon
I no that's right
@@poptart8310 why you do that
This is Wild to me!
I was riding my cutting horse @ Circle G Ranch when Elvis passed.. God Rest His Soul.
I love seeing the Circle G Ranch. I am sorry it wasn't maintained. The ranch could be another historical site to cherish.. whoever bought this farm has a treasure and I would love to see this one day. Thank you for sharing.
My Daddy and Uncle bought it from Elvis in 1969...we lived there from 1969-73...Daddy built the big pink Clubhouse, which was originally white. It was North Miss. Recreation Club. Daddy (Lou McClellan) and my uncle ( Jimmy McClellan) also built the pool. My mother and Dee were friends....we went to Whitehaven Church of Christ with Dee and her 3 sons for many years...Ricky Stanley and I were friends for many years.
That’s cool that you actually put this info out there thanks for that
Thanks for sharing that Vicki Tuck
Thanks a lot for sharing that information.
Wow 😮 That’s so interesting!
I truly just love these historical videos that you make on Elvis. Thank you
Thanks Joy!! Tighten Up!!
I don't know how this iconic place was forgotten... honestly!!
Sad I wouldve kepted it up just cause Elvis did reside there but theres plenty of houses gone to ruin I see them everyday so sad All I can say is shame on those for letting this house go down
Another bonafide stone cold winner of a video! Awesome. I give you a ton of credit for going out there. I have read and seen a bunch of things that indicated venturing onto that property would get you arrested, etc. Glad to see no one bothered you. WELL DONE!!
This shows he wanted a simple life with his beautiful little Wife, Kids, and Family. But that couldn’t happen because he had too many people he had to take care of. His heart was too big. God bless him
He could have had it, if he had stopped the horrible Parker man taking half his money and did not waste his money. He could have lived a lovely life in this place..if he had wanted it.
I would like to own a time machine and go back to those glory days!
I was at Rancho Circle G on Elvis week in 2013 It was a sadness for me to see this place where Elvis spent the happy times of his life! it's a shame they haven't reclaimed this place as it means a lot to the fans. Thank you so much Spa Guy for providing these historical facts about our King! God bless you!
Omgosh, I loved every second of this video. I have been so curious about this ranch. It is amazing that Elvis didn't own the place that long yet no one has really done anything with the property. How is it that you were not stopped? It was great not just seeing the bridge but you walked us over it, too. And the cross was just so spiritual. It reminded me of the cross that was used for his mom's grave. I did get to see that Circle G sign when I was at the Hard Rock in Memphis, too. Thank you sooo much for this video!!! 5 stars! And the drone footage was pricelesss!
He was taking care of everyone he knew. I can understand why he didn’t have all the money. Your videos, and many others talk about how generous he was. Over 300 cars, he just gave away. That’s cars. Not trucks and houses, Ect, Ect. He had everything and wasn’t afraid to give it all away. He gave a little girl in a wheelchair his ring right off his finger. I wish I was alive back then. I would have loved seeing him in concert. A much better time then today.
Hey Billy. I live right down the road from the circle G ranch. I have always wanted to check it out. Love your videos, but really love all the elvis videos. Thanks for doing all this. It's kind of like your doing an elvis documentary and showing all these Elvis history moments that have had little to no publicity. Good stuff !!!
Thanks Zackman, I have always been attracted to that ranch and been many time since the late 90's.. Been over the fence many times.. Tighten Up, Spa Guy
Enjoyed watching your sensational intimate video of Elvis's ranch, sad to see it in disrepair. Great job.
Elvis was a giver if you were at a car lot and he was there and bought a car and if he seen you trying to buy that car he'd buy it for you, that's how generous he was he was a great man and never ever forgot he was poor when he was a young boy, R.I.P. elvis god only takes the best that's why he took you god bless your soul. 🎤🎤🎤🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎤🎤🎤🎤🎤
But he wasted so much money! Colonel Parker took half and wasted it. Why did Elvis not see what the horrible man was up to. Elvis buying everyone a truck, then they all leave the ranch after a few months. It is all so wasteful. He may have been very generous, but he was also extremely wasteful.
Amazing work spa guy, thank you for your dedication of showing us parts of Elvis’s life
Another great video, im learning more about elvis from your videos than i have ever known in the past and im a long time fan of his, thank you
Thanks for watching Jim.. I am trying to bring you more than you have ever heard before.. and something true but new.. Spa Guy
Hey spy guy, it's so sad to see how things fall apart, I love to remember the happy times with Elvis, you just make me smile seeing how you go about what you do, just very cool 🖒
Thank You John.. I have visited the Circle G about 10 or 12 times since the late 90's and really enjoy it overtime I go.. I feel a connection to it even though Elvis really wasn't there very long.. I think he bought it thinking he would really use and found out he was just too busy to have it and Graceland.. There was not enough time for both and the cost of keeping both up was a bunch.. Spa Guy
I can understand that, I was there in 2015 with the family we had alot of fun looking around the ranch, just trying to think of when Elvis walking the grounds,
Like this video of cricle. G ranch in missappie
Right i wonder if its just age and or storm damage
The barn restrooms were sooo cute when we moved there...they had mares on one and. stallions on another...the mare one had a pic of a horse with a bow in her hair painted on the door...the stallion one had a horse blowing steam out of his nose! Not sure if Jack Adams had it painted or if Elvis did. So cute because children would ask me " Which one am I?"lol
Amazing that it's still there. And that E on the BBQ!! Priceless.
I wanted it at my house by the pool.. But it belongs there!!
Amazing. Spa guy. We'd never get this content anywhere else,Thanks again. 🇬🇧👍
Thanks You Dirk, I trying to bring you new content and stories about Elvis.. It is an honor to do it.. Spa Guy
Thanks so much for making this video. I went to Graceland twice (2018 & 2019) for the first times of my life and was always curious about the Circle G and wondered where it exactly was and what condition it was in. Love the aerial shots too.
I have been watching these videos for the last couple weeks and have just been so delighted. Being a huge Elvis fan myself, watching these allows me to see things I could never be able to see and I have only read about in books. Thank you so much! You are blessed for sure to be able to pursue your interests!
Thanks Shawn, I read about them too and wanted to see what they were really like and wanted you to come along with me.. Glad you did.. Spa Guy
That makes me so sad that people ripped him off with the horses. He was so kind and generous. Breaks my heart that people would do him that way.
casey, think of it like this...elvis was a sharp guy, he was no mug, and he knew he was paying way over for everything he bought, so, i think this was his way of sharing his wealth with the people....
Just another great episode in the series "SpaGuy". Willy you have a unique way to do these series of videos. Please stay healthy and safety first.
Thanks Ricky!! Glad you are with me.. Spa Guy
I just get so invested mentally knowing how much fun took place on that ranch ! The love for horses and the freedom enjoying riding the horses you bought to have a ranch and friends all hanging out ! Omg to just know how much life on that property and the love and enjoyment ⚡️🤩🙌🏼🐴🐴🐴🐴⚡️⚡️⚡️
But all for just 5 months!! Such a waste of money, the trucks, mobile homes, horses, the bridge! All for 5 months! Elvis had a throw away culture, he did not invest and value.
I agree Marilyn, someone with Presley Estates should have kept this place up! Surely places belonging to Elvis would or should have more important Historical value to be kept up! This is very sad! TCB
What a treat to see this! If you've never read Donna Lewis' book, Hurry Home Elvis, volume II, you would probably find it very interesting. Her dad George Lewis worked as a gate guard at Circle G Ranch and it was he that built the BBQ grill for Elvis. Donna spent time with her dad while he was guarding the gate and she makes many references to the goings on at the ranch. She also mentions in her book about the bathrooms and how they were labeled "mares" and "stallions". There is a lot of valuable information recorded in her books. Thanks for sharing!
May, That sounds like great reading... I wish I had known some of those facts when I was making this.. Mr Lewis is in the picture of the Circle G Ranch truck.. He is wearing a EP Shirt.. I had no idea he built it.. I wonder if he was still alive.. You really know your stuff.. You Rock!! Spa Guy
Donna's books are out of print, but you can still find volumes one and two, for a pretty penny. Mr. Lewis did pass away years ago, but Donna is still alive. She spent a lot of time going to the Memphian Theater when Elvis would rent it out and she mentions this frequently in her books. I'm just wondering if you have any plans to go there and make a video? I think it is now the Playhouse Theater. I know you are very busy, but it might be something you want to do in the future. Thanks so much! YOU ROCK! Keep on TCB!
I have actual filmed there but never gotten inside.. It i very different than it was then.. They removed the seats way into the audience area for the stage for play productions so the places Elvis would sit are no longer there.. I still plan on going inside I have just never caught anyone there.. Been there about 3-4 times.. I will def do a video about it though..
Mary, thanks for adding here the name of the guy who built the grill at the Circle G. I've seen Donna post before on line that her dad was the one who built it...I just couldn't remember her name 'til you posted...thanks, and I'm sure Spa Guy appreciates the additional info as well.
You're welcome Penny! I wish Donna would consider writing another book. She was the ultimate fan and reading about her and her familiy's life (at that time) is amazing.
I was at graceland and circle g ranch in late 1978 went in ranch house saw memoribila of elvis and pricilla walked across that bridge I still have a little stub where you bought a small piece of the land l touched elvis robe weren't supposed to but I did love that man forever thank you for the vidieo
WOW...this was awesome. The knowledge you have is amazing. You're like a tour guide. I so enjoyed this.
All his research and videos are so well done. I love them.
Thank u Billy for all your dedication to your viewers! You sure help us to go back in time,an awesome feeling✌️
Great video! At that time when he bought Circle G I worked as an assistant service manager at Oakley Motor Company, a local Ford dealer, 1064 Union Avenue in Memphis. One night just before 9PM closing, a rep from Elvis came into the showroom and contacted a floor salesman about buying some Rancheros. The salesman was very new to the dealership and hadn't had a very productive month. He made an initial deal and eventually we delivered 12 to the Elvis fleet. I wasn't there - I went home at 6PM but it was the talk of the Union Avenue dealers the next day! Also, my cousin worked at Sears in Whitehaven and sold several high-end lawn tractors/mowers a day or so later. That purchase was by credit card and almost didn't happen until a supervisor was contacted at home. He had to come to the store and verify the purchase.
Enjoy your excellent videos..
Carl, Do you remember the name of the salesman? Did you ever have anyone bring them in for service? I worked a Service Manager at a Ford Dealership in North Carolina before I moved to Nashville for about 17 years.. Let me know.. Spa Guy You can email direct if you would like billy@thesgnetwork.com
Hi. Sorry, I can't remember the name of the salesman, but do recall the night sales manager was Gene Berretta, who actually had to take over and help. As you may know, salesmen came and went quickly (ha) and a few became permanent for longer times. The only other thing I recall was that there was an older Ford Bronco that was used as a shuttle on the Mansion property but wasn't licensed to use on the street. For servicing and repairs we sent a wrecker and towed it to our shop and returned it the same way. Once I got to go and noticed Vernon had a garage shop and was restoring old cars. Just saw that briefly. Hope that is worthy info! Have a great weekend.
Thank you for the great work you do in tracking where Elvis visited and vacations. You’ve done a great job in preserving his memory.
This is so sad, I like to think if he'd have moved on to the farm full time, maybe he could have relaxed and got clean and lived longer. Would be nice to think of Lisa Marie purchasing it back in her youth and raising her kids there. Oh well so many what ifs when someone leaves us way to soon.
I Lived 5 miles from the place for 17 years....NO WAY would Lisa even think about buying it. The road in front is insanely busy...not that nice of a neighborhood now
Elvis is sitting at the picnic table by Priscilla with the hat on .
Just now finding this video in 2022!
Fantastic information and thanks for the timeline-I thought Elvis owned the ranch for a longer period of time. Definitely an “in and out”!
Spa Guy, you did such a fabulous job of bringing this to us. I could not help but feel melancholy afterwards, having felt that we were walking alongside you and wishing that Elvis was still with us. I can see that there was a lot of promise with the Circle G until Elvis snd everyone lost interest. It very well have could have been an excellent place to escape to and get away from the everyday pressure of being the King of Rock and Roll.
Very cool! Even if for only 5 months, a very special part of Elvis history that I loved learning about! I hope it can be preserved! Thank you Spa Guy!
Amei conhecer o rancho! Linda filmagem de um belo local! Obrigada!
Thanks!
Ok, If you want to interview and old man going on to 85 years old I'll do the best I can. My Dad had a band in Memphis called (Doc McQueen and the Rock and Roll trio) the members were Johnny Burnet, Dorsey Barnet Paul Burleson and my dad. I found our that Elvis also preform with Johnny Burnet's group before they started playing with my dad. The practiced every night in an old house 24 North Cooper ST. in Memphis. Sometimes when I'm in Memphis I park across the street from the old house and just listen. Even though they are all gone now I can still hear the music coming from the old house. My Dad played the piano for President Ronald Ragan and Nancy Ragan in the white house. He turned the living room into a recording studio at 24 north Cooper St. and help kick start Rock--n--Roll in Memphis.
James I am excited that you will do this.. What you witnessed is important and it will be Greatly appreciated by the fans.. I will get with you this week and come up and see you.. Spa Guy
James McQuee
Hey Spa Guy! This is another fantastic video you have done! I cannot believe how close the house was to the road.....but wow, what a beautiful piece of property and photographs certainly do not do it justice! The Glory did a nice job of giving us a beautiful perspective. Your commentaries are excellent.....I share in your enthusiasm and joy for Elvis history!! Keep up the good work, and thank you again!
Thanks Mama Tee, I agree pictures cannot do it justice the Glory is better but in person is the best.. Spa Guy
Hi Spa Guy. Another great and fascinating video. How poignant to see the Circle G as it is today in some disrepair and see pictures of it with Elvis, Vernon and their family and friends enjoying in its former glory. That bridge practically gave me goosebumps seeing it and picturing Elvis and Priscilla crossing it. Thank you so much for the time and effort you put into this video and all your other ones. Keep up the great work! 🥰
thanks again and again for so much lovely history !!!!.........Yvon
Another great video! Thanks so much for all your hard work to provide these videos Billy. They are so appreciated. Keep em coming!
Thanks so Much Bill!!
Tremendous job , my brutha !!!! You're unmatched at giving human dimensions to the King !!!!!
Thank you Billy for all of the information and videos you make for everyone else about Elvis Presley and his life. I have watched every one of them. 😃
Excellent video as always Mr. Spaguy! I was intrigued by that guitar case that was in the Circle G Ranch auction (24:42) and I checked and the two girls bought it for $15!! What a steal!!
I got contacted by a friend today and he knows where that case is and they were pointing at the Elvis Autograph on the door flap.. I will do a story on it in the future.. That was a Steal! Thanks, Spa Guy
Fantastic! Can't wait!!
I met Elvis many times while I lived there. The bridge was NOT built by Elvis....Jack Adams built that...This was Jack's summer home. I had a mini bike that I rode all over the property. I was in high school the whole time we lived there. In fact, in my junior year class favorite pics were taken there...it was then in excellent condition. We had Open Horse Shows there in the 70's....we had quarter horses and shetland ponies.
Did Jack Adams own the place before Elvis? Maybe I missed that in the video.
Comme j aurais aimé le voir en concert ! Je n etais pas née ! Il reste les vidéos qu on ne se lasse pas de regarder merci a you tube ! C est génial
I'm from Canada and that land is beautiful! If I ever had to leave Canada to be in US. That would be on my list.
Hi I am a new subsciber an Elvis fan since I as 13 now nearly 72.My greatest wish would be to see Graceland but out my reach.Just want to say a big thank you for the chance to see the Elvis videos you put on here.....awesome!!!! Thanks....
Great piece of Elvis history presented in a very entertaining and informative way. Thanks Spa Guy, very good job!!! I love the drone work.
Way cook video sir not knowing too much about Elvis other then who he was and what he accomplished. The past week I have been learning about his life with his wife family and friends, t
I never knew of this house until listening to Priscilla's audio book . To see this house still standing and knowing they used to be here is very cool. Thank you for taking time to upload this for all of us that are fascinated by this man's life and what he's done.great drone footage as well it really showed off the property well
A good friend of our family was a mechanic at one of the dealerships in Memphis when Elvis went on the farm truck buying spree. I dont remember how many he bought from that dealership that day, but Mr. Mike said Elvis came through the shop and shook all the mechanics hands.
Sounds Just like him.. Very Polite and down to earth..
B
Hello Spa Guy. Love your videos! So informative and takes us places Elvis lived, etc. Keep these coming. Great job!!
Thanks for watching, Judy... Spa Guy
This would be Awesome place to turn into wedding chapel by the cross and build a reception hall there as well. That house could be moved away from road and fixed up.would be great honeymoon house for couples to re t as well. Beautiful place. If I had the money I would love to do that.
@Spa Guy. Another phenomenal vlog!
I keep thinking eventually this guy has got to either run out of good ideas but you keep on goin like that energizer bunny!
Thank you for the great content, as usual from you.
You are most definitely one of my vloggers, not that i need to tell you...... but keep these informative videos comin!
Thank You Coochman, I have plenty more.. I am like you I start thinking wow I can't do a better one than that then I find another Gem... Thanks for the encouragement It means a lot... Spa Guy
Thank you so much for this beautiful video,I hadn't even heard of The Circle G Ranch so I have learnt something new today. Beautiful when Elvis bought it I bet.....So sad to see it as it is today. Thank you once again.
Thanks for watching... I will continue showing you things about Elvis you have never even heard of.. That's my thing.. Spa Guy
This takes most of us back to a great time when we had no money. But all families would get together and enjoy a weekend together. I wish his mother would have lived a longer. Think things would have turned out differently. Like he could have lived into his 70’s. Great video!!!!!!!
Excellent video. Very well done on this glimpse into somewhere you don't often get the chance to see. I had been to the Circle G on a couple of occasions in the 2002-2007 period but want ever able to find anyone to give me permission to go and see the BBQ structure. It's a shame to see it deteriorating in such a way. I was told by one of Elvis' friends (Charlie Hodge or Joe Esposito - I cant quite remember), that 'the guys' paid for the BBQ pit to be built as a present to Elvis. Also, did you know that Elvis actually sold the Circle G twice! He originally sold the ranch and the new owner was not able to keep up payments on the property, so apparently (under the law at that time) ownership automatically reverted to the previous owner - Elvis!
Javelin1835, I did not know it was sold twice.. I will look into it.. I did know that the guys had the grill built in fact by the guy in the picture standing leaning on the Ranch truck Mr. Lewis.. Thanks for watching.. When I filmed the BBQ segment I had just driven through the gate that was open and ran up to the grill so my adrenaline was really pumping there is no telling what I said.. Spa Guy
Spa Guy, I found your videos around 45 days ago. I love seeing what (relative to EP) things are like now. I've been to Graceland several times, Tupelo on a few occasions, Circle G was a pass by look as a child. I last visited Memphis and Graceland 8-10 years ago. It's changed alot over the years. More questions about Circle G...what happened to the motel/Mexican restaurant? I'll come back to this post after I search for the urbexers with video of it.
And he lived there for a few months! What a shame, and sad to just keep moving in, as if nothing is good enough. They built the bar b q hoping that this was Elvis’s home.
Thanks for taking the time to do this.
I am a newer subscriber and now a follower of yours Spa Guy. Thank you for what you do as a fellow Elvis fan. I have been a huge Elvis fan since I was a youngster. I would love to be able to see the Circle G myself in the near future. Also thank you for your review about The Guest House at Graceland. I had ready considered staying there on my next visit to Graceland until I watched your review on it. Thanks again. :-)
You are very welcome and don't let my review stop you I just think it is not what it could be.. Thanks So Much for watching, Spa Guy
I was just there last week taking pictures. It does not look like that now. The house is run down. Really enjoyed seeing it in person. Take care
According to Priscilla some of the happiest days of their marriage (place of honeymoon) were spent at the Circle G Ranch. It is prescient that many of the structures still remain that were there when Elvis owned it. Let's trust the new owners are able to revamp and provide it for access to the public!
For 30 minutes I was transported back in time. I was there in 1982. Awesome drone footage and history. Thank you.
Thank you SpyGuy for sharing your stories to all of us Elvis fans. I have loved Elvis since I was a kid watching his movies and TV specials with my mother brothers n sisters and friends. We are were and still fans of Elvis music. I seen him in 1976 last concert in Atlanta Ga. I was 14 yrs old. I have alot of his albums. My mothers and my 45s that I have held on two since I was 9 yrs old. My younger brothers would get hot wheels. And my mother would buy Elvis 45s for me and for her self. So we took time sharing each other records and always made sure to give each other back thier on 45. Then I would start buying his albums. I have 33 blue Hawaii and no telling of how many other albums I have of Elvis.I had pins t shirt big poster pic of him dressed in blue with his blue eyes that hung over my bed. I had a Elvis bust that was paintedfrom the shoulders up. I had Elvis pics all over my bedroom walls with pics of other singers.I wish I knew where all my stuff was today. I would have never gotten rid of any of his stuff from the last concert I had seen of him in person. Elvis was King to Rock n Roll music. And he is still King to this day of Rock n Roll music. No one can come near his music. No other musicans or todays music. We love Elvis 💖 and always will. No matter what he did or didn't do in his life has nothing to do with his music. He singed from his heart. He loved his mother he loved his wife and he so loved his daughter Lisa Marie. So thank you SpyGuy for bringing us info on the King of Rock n Roll. Elvis was not a GOD he was a real human being. And ppl would not leave him alone. Standing at his gate 24/7. I love his cousin Billy n his wife Joe and Billy the Memphis kid. These are true ppl who spent time with him and Pricilla and Lisa Marie her cousins. I want to say Thank you again for all your hard work. And Thanks to Elvis for all his music from the blues hiilybilly music to Rock n Roll . By putting his on sound to his music and to Gosble music.
I live in the neighborhood behind here 😮 , I’m definitely gonna check this out
Spectacular, Thank you Spa Guy for sharing, great job in telling the history and showcasing Circle G.
Billy this was most excellent! Being a not so hardcore fan I never knew very much about Circle G. Thanks for the knowledge my friend. I am really enjoying your channel btw.
I enjoy these videos keep them coming amazing!! Thank You
Another home run. Great job, great research, great access. I love the drone, that thing is a beast!
Thanks Richard is a necessary tool to show what it is really like.. Spa Guy
oh gosh such a cute house and piece of land. I'm interested in an update.
spaguy ty for doing these elvis videos, i really enjoy them... im am truly an elvis fan for over 50 yrs now , keep up the good work , from thomas...
Thanks Thomas.. Great to hear form you, Spa Guy
Very very beautiful this video SpaGuy;!
Man, I was wondering if you were going to find the bar-b-q grill and lo n behold I wasn't disappointed! Once more, you did it again! TCB, my Friend.
Another great job with LOTS of info !!!! You do such an amazin job with every one of these videos and I wanted to let you know WE Elvis fans definitely appreciate YOU for it ! Thanks Spaguy.
Thanks for watching, Janey...I appreciate you.. Motivates me to tell great stories.. Spa Guy
That's one helluva drone , bro ! Awesome footage !!!!!!!
Que pena , estou adorando seus vídeos , mais sou tão fã e fascinada em tudo que envolve meu querido Elvis Presley , que tento absorver os conteúdos ,mesmo não sabendo inglês.Sou brasileira e adoraria que seu vídeos fossem com legenda em português .Ontem descobrir seu canal , estou amando .Boa tarde spa Guy.
Recently subscribed to your channel, very glad I did that. I am so thankful that I have been able to see so much and learn so much more about the king's life. I wanna say to you bud thanks again for all this pictures and information that you always provide to millions of fans worldwide.
Thank You for watching..
@@SpaGuy Always enjoy your videos, we should be the ones thanking you for sharing all of that gold with us.
Thank you again for another wonderful Elvis documentary ! Greetings from Latvia!
Hello in Lativa Bella.. Glad You are watching, Spa Guy
Love it!👍
Hearing stories about Vernon talkin about what Elvis did with His money, gets under my skin. Can’t stand it. All Vernon had to do was sell some of Elvis’s shoe laces if he was so worried🤦♂️
Vernon always worried about being poor again I believe..
So two things about this is the barbecue pit was gift from the guys to Elvis. The white cross was put there from the original owner for his daughter that he lost.
Takridge I think I told the cross story in the video If I didn't I meant to.. and Yes the Memphis Mafia had the pit built for Elvis..
Awesome video!
Thank you so much for all of your hard work! I learn new things all the time!
:)
Thank You Bonnie...
I've really enjoyed watching this one too. I never knew about this place of Elvis's. So interesting.
Thank you for sharing your videos.
Legend purports that the lovely and talented Lisa Marie was conceived in the Circle G ranch house !
Hi Spa Guy,
Again great video thank you so much for sharing this and taking the time to record all of this for history,
such a shame to see Elvis`s beloved ranch fall into disrepair, another piece of Elvis History that should have been bought by EPE and preserved for future generations
EPE is only interested in Graceland not real history in my opinion.. Thanks for watching, Spa Guy
Yvonne Heinemann He sold the ranch soon after he bought it....couldn't have been too beloved, LOL! But many thanks to SpaGuy for the info, regardless.
Hello Spa Guy, I'm from Brazil, I love your videos. Amazing the feeling that they give me. At times it is as if you can feel the emotion that the people there have felt. Thank you so much for this incredible work my friend!!!
Thank You Fernando, I want you to feel the emotion in every video because my videos are real.. I do them without a script and simply tell the story.. Thanks for the encouragement.. Spa Guy
SPA GUY is undoubtedly the best
Thank you Spa Guy for yet another awesome Elvis related video. I always look forward to watching your videos whenever I get a notification that you've uploaded something new. You make it possible for those of us who will probably never get a chance to see these things in person to see them here on UA-cam. I wonder if anyone has ever tried to locate that ring that Priscilla lost in that lake. It would be pretty cool to see it recovered. Thanks again Spa Guy for this interesting and intriguing video. I will definitely continue to keep watching and liking any future Elvis videos. 🙂
Thank You Gloria.. I will say If I owned that property I would drain the lake and find it.. You can bet on that.. Thanks for watching, Spa Guy
Last summer they opened the property for one afternoon, they had horse back riding, music and great opportunity for some pictures of the cross and a bridge over the lake! It’s a beautiful place there is even a bbq pit with EP in the bricks
Did you watch the video? Someone broke it up & took the P!! 😔
Great video! I walked the Circle G property around 1980(yes--I was trespassing)lol I remember that the outside bathrooms were marked "Stallions" for the men and " Mares" for the women. The place was vacant at that time but there were still saddles in the stables(not sure who they belonged to). I always wondered what the large pink-colored building was. It's interesting that it was a Mexican restaurant but it had been used as a residence when I was there. There was an old Cadillac under the carport. There was also a large swimming pool to the left of the restaurant structure. It was constructed like a public swimming pool.Is it still there? I would love to know the history of that property
Hello Jerry, Yes that pool is still there and you are right it looks like something a YMCA.. I am working on a video about the entire history before and after and have found out some interesting things that will be in the video.. Stay Tuned.. Spa Guy
Fantastic! I'll be looking forward to it!
I drive by this "pink barn" everyday!! I always wanted to trespass and go see it... I was always told it was Elvis's Barn!!! now I know it wasn't.. Thanks for the video!! do you know if anyone is going to restore the property still?
I’m speechless, just speechless that Elvis’ estate would ignore this property like it meant absolutely nothing in Elvis’ legacy/history. Wow. I wonder their reason for not including this property in Elvis Legacy? It was certainly a meaningful to the King & i really enjoyed the video!
I just stayed at Horn Lake this weekend and visited Graceland, I didn't know anything about Circle G until after the Graceland tour. I wish I had looked the ranch up and at least drove by it. I appreciate your video bc it helped me see what I missed.
That place is breathtakingly beautiful. Thank you for the amazing videos.
Awesome as I was wondering to know more about this ranch ! Thank you for sharing ❤️
There are 3 more videos about Circle G this is part #1 ua-cam.com/video/7o8FJ5A9BQY/v-deo.html
Really enjoy your videos and the research u put into them.
Again a beautiful video thank you Spa Guy👌
I agree, this place was more Presley & Pricilla than Graceland. I’m so upset the house has deteriorated, Elvis was an icon to a generation of young kids , who’ve grown to be adults as I have and I loved Elvis, I was one of his fans the year he died I couldn’t believe it. I mourned for days.
