The Wild West
It's time for Tuesday 4 - an invention of our late friend Toni Taddeo.
Let's talk about The Wild West!
1. Do you have a favorite TV western you enjoyed? Tell us about it. I liked Bonanza and had a crush on Hoss (yes, not Michael Landon's Little Joe... Dan Blocker's Hoss).
2. Lots of western movies... which was one you enjoyed? Not crazy about westerns but I did love Australia (not really a western, but still about cows and horses). If you haven't seen it, it is definitely worth the time to see. Based on a true story, too.
3. John Wayne was in many westerns and had many fans. What actor is your favorite? I always love Sam Elliott.
4. You are going to have to move to a western state that has cowboys! Which state will you choose and why? Texas - because I like how they roll. God bless them!!
PS: If you saw my post yesterday, I mentioned that the wedding venue was in a tent. I forgot to post a picture of "the tent". Not really a "tent". A beautiful venue!
Wow! That wedding "tent" is magnificent! What a beautiful setting for a wedding! I loved Bonanza too, but I don't recall having a crush on any of them at the time. I just remember it was the first TV show we ever saw in color at my Aunt and Uncle's house in Pittsburgh, PA! We didn't have a color TV for a long time after that, so seeing that at their house was a real treat. I thought they must be really rich! They weren't, but they did have a nice house and TV. LOL. I used to love the old westerns on TV, Roy Rogers, Gene Autrey, Zorro, The Lone Ranger, etc. Those were the days! Hope you have a nice day today.
ReplyDeleteThe "tent" is beautiful. I love Sam Elliot too.
ReplyDeleteHave a great day!
The "tent" is magnificent, Terri! I was never a big fan of Westerns, but I do like Sam Elliot.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful day!
Aw, 'Hoss' ... the sweetest one. So sad, his premature passing.
ReplyDeleteI remember when Roy Rogers, Dale and Gene were 'appointment TV.' Not so much anymore, tho' Tom usually watches the GRIT channel every afternoon.
PS - I like the way Texas rolls, too! thumbs up
ReplyDeleteWe watched all the westerns...at my Daddy's demand.lol So I am not a big fan of it either. I had a crush on Rowdy on Rawhide.lol
Australia...the movie, has so many beautiful scenes! It's a good movie. I love Texas and lived there several years. I still LOVE the Dallas Cowboys! Have a good week!
ReplyDeleteooh, yes! Loved Australia!!!!
ReplyDeleteWOW! What a beautiful "tent" for the wedding of your niece! Very impressive.
ReplyDeleteAs for going to a state w/cowboys, of course it would be Colorado for me, since that's my fav place and I have so many memories there.
And favorite TV/movie Western cowboy? Hmm. I liked the sheriff in Gunsmoke and of course, John Wayne.
That's a "tent"!? Must be in Texas! LOL I **love** Texas. Could totally live there. I like how they roll too.
ReplyDeleteI'm not much into Westerns either. Never have been but there's a couple of films that are worth a watch: Silverado, True Grit (John Wayne), Open Range, to name a couple. I do like Robert Duvall. He's a true thespian. I'll have to check out "Australia". It's free on YouTube.
Love xx
Wow! That "tent" is amazing!
ReplyDeleteI agree - I'd go to Texas.
