I haven't seen that one but I did go to the National Cowboy and Western Heritage Museum that is in Oklahoma City and the Will Rogers museum that is also in Oklahoma.

Hello Debp,
YES, I remember watching Roy Rogers and Dale Evans. I also remember their work with children and their Christian testimony for CHRIST. In fact, I've heard several beautiful testimonies from Dale Evans over the last several years. I know that Roy went home to be with the LORD some time ago, but I think that Dale is still with us and serving the LORD. Roy and Dale used to do a lot of Christian music in my part of the country. In fact, I think that's how they got started. If you think back, you might remember that they had a singing group on the show pretty frequently. The name of the group was "The Sons of the Pioneers", and they also did a lot of beautiful Christian music. If I remember correctly, the Sons of the Pioneers worked with Roy Rogers and Dale Evans long before and long after the television show.
Love In Christ,
Tom
Matthew 1:23 NASB "BEHOLD, THE VIRGIN SHALL BE WITH CHILD AND SHALL BEAR A SON, AND THEY SHALL CALL HIS NAME IMMANUEL," which translated means, "GOD WITH US."

I remember a few of the songs by the Sons of the Pioneers. It's easy to remember them as we just got a CD of them for one of my grandsons. "There's A Round-up In The Sky", "Rounded Up In Glory" and one that is great with just about anybody singing it, "The Old Rugged Cross".
Yes, the Sons of the Pioneers were with Roy for many, many years. In fact it was Roy that formed the group before he was even known as Roy Rogers.

I love listening to the Sons of the Pioneers Sing. They have beautiful harmony and a style that makes them unique. I'll say that they were "down-home" type folks who made you comfortable, and you really wanted to hear them sing. Maybe I should have said that they seemed like neighbors and plain folks liked them. Once you've heard them sing, it's hard to ever forget them, and their music will never go out of style.
I don't know how many of the original group are still living. I'm wanting to say that they became popular in the 40s.

I think they were a little bit before my time....but I can remember a little bit about the old Roy Rodgers show. Yes, I remember seeing Dale and also Roy on TBN many years ago being interviewed about their faith. |

Hello Debp,  Is this a nice way of telling us that we are older than dirt? You do know that Pastor Roger and I grew up in difficult times: 1 - Our school books were on stone tablets. 2 - We didn't have any shoes and it snowed year around. 3 - We walked 5 miles to and from school every day. 4 - Up hill - both ways. How about the Cisco Kid, Hopalong Cassidy, Gene Autry, and Captain Kangaroo? |

lol .... Don't forget the two sticks rubbed together to get the fire started.
Roy got his start in the mid to late 30's which is before my time also. He was popular in the 50's when I was still a kid.

Was that 1800s or 1900s? You're way before my time. We had a fire dispenser on top of a mountain. We just caught burning rocks in a bucket and had all we needed to start fires. (Small Print - In Hiding) |

Actually, I was born in 1950 so remember all of these last shows you mention....but I wasn't as familiar with the Sons of the Pioneers singing group (so that is what I meant). We did have alot of good tv programs back then. I also spent alot of time outdoors playing. |

Here in Los Angeles, there is Gene Autry's Western Heritage Museum. One section of the museum is dedicated to the Old West TV shows and movies....you can even watch some of the old TV Westerns there. They also have lots of clothing from Roy Rogers, Dale Evans, etc. It's an interesting museum if you are ever out this way.
I was born in L.A. and yes, there are quite a few western museums. |

You automatically qualify to take an old person nap anytime you wish. I also spent a lot of time outdoors playing while growing up. I don't remember when we finally got a television. After we did get one, we were only allowed to watch certain shows after homework and chores were done. |

I have a single calling and never married! Fooled you, huh? But I do mentor a young child that has no grandparents so I kind of know the feeling. She is a really sweet child. Thanks for letting me know about the naps!  |

I've watched the X-Files a few times and won't watch them anymore. The show mocks God in a very direct manner and elevates evil as being more powerful than good. There is nothing and no one that is more powerful than God.
