g-W Guest Ranch at the Garden of
ith his wife and a force of Workmen,
: biggest year in the history of Wick
; unoer the management or Mr.. ana
gained reputation as a guest resort
and promising tnat the future will
and besI known guest ranches in the
among the very oldest and largest
III the state make grove about
these old springs that for more than
seventy-five years have centereG the
white mans life in this cove be-
tween the rocks that rise on the
east and the river that creeps along
on the west.
Ia such a setting stands the old
adobe ranch house.
Hospitality is the word here. From
the rawhide latches always hanging
out, to the horseshoe handles and the
wide-seated cowhide chairs before the
open fireplace, everything bespeaks
hospitality that is not to be resisted
and comfort that grips and holds
man. These old adobe walls have
encompassed the lives Of three gen
erations and they have afforded to
men of every race some sense of
what is meant By that great word
home, The living room here at the
Circle F1ying-W is full of the atmos-
phere of home in the real sense, and
yet there is something more. It's
glass-paneled sides running in the
form of an 81" on the north and
west, makes almost a replica of the
Old Clairmont in New York City,
where so many generations have
found chubby comfort sitting slipping
well, that was long ago, B.
w.. but sitting, as they still do,
overlooking the Hudson and drinking
in the beauty of that scene as tn
guest at Leo Weaver's takes in the
beauty of the Hassayamp.
1t is a room Of unusual charm, a
room to be remembered. And here
the guests have music, bridge, teas,
entertainment such as people Of cul-
ture find in congenial atmosphere,
where everything is unusual, nothing
bizarre.
Accommodations
Twenty-Five guests may now be
comfortably cared for, with all the
modern conveniences Of any hotel,
and free from the nuisances of the
over-appointed caravansery. With
the new building which is now going
up on the northeast corner of the
old adobe, Mr.. Weaver is beginning
the first unit of what will eventually
be a large dormitory, fitted up for
fifty guests and overlooking a patio
open to the river on the west 1t is
an ideal location on high ground and
we'll out in the sunshine and is ad-
mirably planned in every detail for
the comfort of it's occupants. Baths
with hot and cold water will be in-
cluded in each Apartment, as at pres
ent in the old house, and the newly
installed electric system will serve
both houses.
Amusements
Of course, horses furnish the back
bone, literally, to the entertainment
of guests at the Circle Flying-W.
With four miles of land along the
river included within the ranch hold
ings, extending from half to three
quarters of a mile on each side, with
more than fifteen miles of trails
within the ranch itself and an unlim-
tied territory of interesting land for
exploration outside, with a railroad
and famous auto road running
through the ranch, visitors are in NJ
sense shut in. and when not engaged
in games of horsemanship on the rid
ing grounds under the tutelage OF Leo
Weaver himself, they are usually off
in groups or en- masse riding the
hills. It is the greatest ranch in the
world for the horselover, the real
lover of real horses.
For the horses at Circle Flying'W
are real horses.
