The photo session

Ron Hodges was so kind in helping with the photos. We went to Villa Montalvo for the shoot on a rather warm day in November. (Close to 90 degrees! Yes!) Georgia helped with the props. I roasted in the suit and the wrap. But hey it's all about "image". Sometimes, "image" should go jump in a lake to cool off!
Regarding the prep for the photos and that "image" thing, it seemed best to go on a diet! So I did!
These are a few of the photos that did not make the cut for the cover.
You can easily see why!




My Buddy!








Ronald Reagan look alike?











Celeb waving to the throngs!

How the Title was chosen

We were celebrating Alex's and Angie's son David's birthday (nephew). Don, Alice (brother-in-law and sister-in-law), Mom and Georgia were reviewing the photos for the album cover and Alex suggested "A California Christmas". And so the title Danny Ray's California Christmas.
