hese 604 acres of prime cattle land also lends itself to some of the best waterfowl and whitetail habitat available on the market. This ranch has long frontage along a county maintained road and has over 4,800 feet of Trinity River frontage. The majority of this place is in pasture, but there are scattered pockets of woods as well as a native pecan orchard that produces lots of pecans for either harvest or wildlife. The ranch is cross fenced into several pastures for rotational grazing and is well watered with stock ponds and wells. The eastern end of the ranch can flood when the river comes out, but this also provides unsurpassed soil fertility and grass production with minimal amounts of fertilizer. There is a good section of the west end that is high and dry and provides good ground for cattle to move to when needed. Improvements on the ranch are minimal, but functional, and include barns/sheds, small house and working pens. $1,991,000.

George W. Bush Attends Tea at the McKenzie Ranch As part of the Yamboree, the oldest annual festival in Texas, John McKenzie and his wife, Mary, hosted the Yamboree Queen’s Tea at the McKenzie Ranch in Gilmer, Texas on October 18, 1991. George W. Bush, then a managing partner of the Texas Rangers, was a guest speaker at the All Service Club luncheon that immediately preceded the tea. Afterward, Bush was escorted to the McKenzie Ranch complete with secret service protection. Mary McKenzie recalls coming home from work for lunch prior to the event, when a black sedan zoomed past her on the winding road leading to her house. McKenzie remembers four large men in dark suits stepping out of the sedan and looking around the ranch in a cautious manner. “It was just like you see on TV,” McKenzie said. “They had sunglasses on and devices in their ears. It was a little unsettling.” She goes on to say that the men introduced themselves as secret service personnel and explained that they were there to check the
house before the event, for guns and to see where the exits were located. McKenzie added, “As unnerving as that was, the thing that bothered me most was the fact that these men were going through the entire house and I had not made the beds that morning!” The French doors were flung open the day of the tea so guests could enjoy the warm weather as they went in and out of the house helping themselves to food and beverages which were served on the porches and patios. Sue Williams, the local home economics teacher, was famous in the community for her marvelous yeast rolls. She, and her class, had made small yeast rolls served with ham as one of the many delicious food items prepared for the occasion. Ironically, Mrs. Williams had been George W. Bush’s nanny when he was a child in West Texas. Mr. Bush spent about two hours at the McKenzie Ranch visiting with guests, but he spent most of his time conversing with Dr.
McKenzie on the back porch, overlooking the pastures and woodlands. They talked about hunting, oil and gas investments and the upcoming gubernatorial race between him and Ann Richards. McKenzie told Bush that he would vote for him but said, “I don’t think you have a prayer. Ann Richards is really popular now!” Shortly after the tea, Richards was featured on the cover of Texas Monthly in the now famous “White Hot Mama” publication where she is straddling a motorcycle in white leathers. All in all, according to the McKenzies, it was an exciting day. Mary’s new friends, the secret service agents, were discreetly stationed throughout the three-story home during the entire affair. And, Mary added, “All my beds were made.” The McKenzies received a personal thank you letter from George Bush several weeks after the celebration on Texas Ranger stationery. They still have that, along with all the memories of fun and eventful times on the ranch. FarmAndRanch.com 105
