    Today we decided to walk around in the famous Westwood Village home of the UCLA. From there. We went to the Piers brothers cemetery where we looked at many celebrity graves like Dean Martin, Marilyn Monroe, Farrah, Fawcett, and many more. Our trip ended up at the Hollywood Griffith, park observatory I matched up many pictures from famous movies like terminator ,rebel without a cause , and I matched up Jim Morrison and Michael Jackson posing at the observatory

      @@whoisharo4689 because California became a liberal shit hole so I bought a house in the woods on 20 acres it’s not quite as good as the ocean but it’s pretty damn nice. I wake up in the morning with anything from deer, turkeys, moose and every now and then we have a bear that shows up. of course he’s not so welcome

    I loved Griffith Park. So many sweet memories. When my son was little, he loved the Carousel and riding the ponies. He was born in Los Angeles in 1963 and passed away in 2012 in Tulsa 😢. My parents had an apartment on Rodney Drive and had a balcony and we could see the Hollywood sign and Griffith Park was so easy to get to. I can see you have so many followers and they all love your videos. I try not to miss any of your videos. They make me happy, a little melancholy but mostly I enjoy seeing all of my favorite places. Dankeschön ❣️

    It’s wonderful how your love of movies and entertainment goes back so far.
    I watched “oldies” at my Grandmother’s house but they were new to me and brought to life from the greats that came before. That’s how you could see a movie if it wasn’t in the theater. At the same time the great art of film got better and better with sound and effects and cutting edge writers and film editors and actors.
    We are lucky to be fans and lucky to have you bring all of it into perspective. Thank you for great fun.

    won't insult the old man by trying to spell his name, but possible German. He would actually make a shoe for you if you
    wanted, shoe or boot. I'm sure that skill is almost gone now, it is all by machine.
