James Cagney and Joan Leslie, in 
Yankee Doodle Dandy.

Yankee Doodle Dandy (1942) is one of Hollywood's greatest, grandest and slickest musicals. The nostalgic, shamelessly-patriotic, entertaining film also supported the war effort as it paid tribute in its mostly fictional story to a popular Irish/American entertainer and the grand American gentleman of the theatre in the early 20th century.

Maybelline Heir Bill Williams 1961 Cadillac Limo, at Casa De Guillermo's, in Palm Spring California.

Sharrie with her daughter Georgia and her brother Preston Williams at Casa De Guillermo's

One of the most fun car's in my dad's collection was his 1961 Cadillac Limousine - he said had belonged to President Ford - a Palm Springs resident himself.  The Limo had holes to put two little American Flags on the hood, so on Memorial Day and the 4th of July, Dad had the flags flying, while we cruised out of the gates of Casa De Guillermo's and downtown to Palm Canyon to celebrate with the crowds.

Happy 4th of July to all my followers from around the would.
