I bought the book because I always wanted to know why Pernell Roberts wanted out.[snapback]14255[/snapback]
So what is the answer to that question, itdo?
Two summers ago, we had the good fortune to be able to visit the Ponderosa spread at Lake Tahoe. That filming location had been a tourist attraction ever since the end of the Bonanza series. We had a great time, and I found it interesting looking at the house they used for indoor shots, and how the cameras were positioned in different locations.
Unfortunately, within the past year, the property was sold and is supposed to be developed into something else (condos? resort? hotel?). In trying to find out a little more about that event, I stumbled upon another web site dedicated to Bonanza, which has a forum for the show, and in scanning the posts briefly, came upon one related to Pernell Roberts. I must admit, I didn't have time to read the whole thing, but post it here for those who might be interested.
