Okay so it's not Jimmy Dean...that's a singer and bacon maker. JAMES Dean is who I meant, but I have to say, he was a kid really...so Jimmy fits better than James. Maybe that's why he was a renegade: hated the name James...too old folk, too formal, too stodgy.... Just sayin'.... Jimmy!!! or not.
Thanks to my friend LaBerta, visiting from Australia, who wanted to drive up to her old home in Brookdale and then a little further up the hill to see her friends the Lussier's...long story short: they know the former owner of the Brookdale Lodge whereon JAMES Dean's mural portrait lay. Perhaps now I will be able to publish a picture of the original mural...much beloved by local residents.
Very cool. Thanks JAMES for inspiring me back to this project!
