With a Thatcher Honoree at Reagan Ranch
What better way to honor Ronald Reagan than with a man honored by Margaret Thatcher. E-mail me if you’d like to join us for dinner tonight in Santa Monica.
Here’s Dr. Ashford standing in front of the front porch that the Gipper built himself. He even laid the stone floor.
Take a look at the poster behind the Gipper’s saddles. Dame Thatcher had the same poster framed in her house:
The Gipper built this dock himself; he considered it one of his greatest accomplishments, ranking up there with restoring confidence in our country, winning the Cold War and breathing new life into the economy:
The Gipper always said, “There is nothing better for the inside of a man than the outside of a horse.” That good man built the fence you see in the fore- and background.
