During a horse-buying expedition in Mississippi, Elvis came across Twinkletown Farm,
about 10 miles south of Graceland. The property was for sale and Elvis decided to buy it.
He renamed it Circle G and the ranch became the new home for Elvis' growing herd of horses and over the next few weeks Elvis and the guys adopted the cowboy life, as Elvis undertook extensive and rapid-fire improvements to the property.
