This is Bonnie Springs Ranch near Las Vegas, Nevada on March 1, 2016. Bonnie Springs Ranch was a little bit of tourist trap and a whole lot of family fun. Small railroad ride, petting zoo, peacocks, an always crowded restaurant which overlooked a crude but well intentioned duck pond. I used to tell people I was going to take them to some waterfront dining. The whole thing collapsed after the matriarch of the family died and the children sold the property. The Nut Tree near Vacaville, California vanished in the exact same way. I wish I had taken more footage of this animatronic prospector..
