next: Kensington Gardens


At the southeast corner of Kensington Gardens stands the Albert Memorial, for Prince Albert, whose daughter (with Queen Victoria) Princess Louise Caroline Alberta, provided the name for the beautiful province of Alberta, where BBM was filmed.  (Lake Louise is also named for her.)

Thus, Kensington Gardens are Brokieish.

John, I still possess and treasure that program! You are a lightning rod that galvanizes Brokies everywhere!

Copeland Spoke is a variety of English tableware featuring an old rose pattern. In their early years, Jack and Ennis stemmed the rose. In their later years, they drank Old Rose whiskey. Not from Copeland Spode dinnerware but nevertheless, Copeland Spode is muy Brokeish.

Mill Canyon Peak is in Utah, and Ennis grew up in Sage, on the Utah line.

Next: James Brolin

May I still throw in another answer to this one?

James Brolin
is married to Diane Lane, who starred in the TV miniseries of Lonesome Dove, based on the book by Larry McMurtry. So James Brolin is Brokieish.

Still thinking about Sam Shepard ...
