    Love Zorro! As a kid, my favourite TV show was Zorro from 1957 with Guy Williams. I also really enjoyed the Antonio Banderas movies. I also need to read Isabel Allende's take on the character but it seems that I need to pick up the original. Great video and the relaxing scenery was a bonus!

      Glad you enjoyed... I never watched those old black and white zorro films... I did however see the Banderas movie and enjoyed it. Zorro!!! I'm a fan!!!

      Thank you... I've been blessed with this property... I wanted the place for the property as the house is a 200 year old farm house and has been remodeled 1 room at a time. UGH LOL

      You would like zorro I think. I'd be curious on your take of it. Maybe I was thinking of the black sox... nah... I'm just saying that so it sounds like I didn't have the titanic and fenway year mixed up. LOL

    I often get dates wrong. My anniversary, my wife's birthday...stuff like that. But I can tell you that in 1989, Ryne Sandberg hit 30 homeruns and batted 290 for Cubs that season. Ya know, important stuff.

    • @FacelessBookReviews

      Oh man... I had Sandberg on my fantasy baseball team that year. This was before internet so the guy who ran it had to check box scores in the paper everyday to get stats... He was one of my favorite hitters on my team back then. Memories.

    Good vid! Your land is beautiful. It didn't even look like it needed to be mowed. But those shrubs at the end make it look like a jungle in there - neat!

      Hey that blue barrel is a place to set my guns when I'm target practicing. LOL As much as I wanna live in the 1800's in 2024 I have no desire to ride a horse... I like the mechanical horse power... like a motorcycle or a 4-wheeler. LOL I have control over those things and they don't have a mind of their own.

    I understand your frustration. You like the book but didn't like certain aspects of the book. So you reccomend it but with strings attached? "Slash -Slash -Slash" .."No strings!" Z.! ..What happened? ...Zorro?
