Gene Autry and I would go on tours. He and I would fly everyplace in his private plane. Gene would have his big western show with ropers and wire acts and girl dancers. We did lots of state and county fairs.
There was a party I did for Cardinal McEntire in Los Angeles, my horse Pixie would go up the elevator into the Embassy Room and perform for the kids.
I took my horse Pixie on tour and used him on Annie Oakley (1954). He was fabulous at learning tricks and was always good with kids. He was just a good friend, somebody to talk to and ride trails. A very special friend.
