Pioneertown

This picture taken of Pappy and Harriet's Pioneertown Palace located on Pioneertown Road off Route 62 in Yucca Valley, California.  Pioneertown was a motion picture set built in 1946 designed to provide a place for the actors to live while filming a movie or show.  The Cisco Kid, Judge Roy Bean, Roy Rogers, as well as Gene Autry were just some of the shows taped here.  Pappy and Harriet's Place is a longtime local club which was built near one of the sets.  There are notable musicians that frequent this place, one is Eric Burdon of the Animals fame.
