Summer Love
I've always loved summer, although as I age, not so much summer sun!! I've changed my music to reflect on summer love, & below are some of my all time favorite summer themed movies. Not a new one in the bunch! I love the old movies that I can safely enjoy with my granddaughter. Annette Funicello & Frankie Avalon were my favorites as a little girl back in the mid 60's. I just adored Annette, still do! I don't think she is in very good health now, as I believe she has MS. But the last time I saw her on tv, she was still such a beauty & so seems to be such a true American sweetheart.
We actually walked along side Frankie Avalon & his bodyguard at Disneyland back in the mid 80's. He was there to do a concert. And yes, he was wearing all white & had a fantastic "George Hamilton" tan!!
Grease was such a fun movie, after all, who wouldn't love a movie that had "PINKETTES" in it, right Lori?!?! Great songs that I know every word to. I taught both daughter & granddaughter how to Hand Jive with this movie!
Sandra Dee & Troy Donahue just melt my heart!
I'm almost embarassed to tell you that my granddaughter made me watch Gidget Goes Hawaiian with her last summer at least 10 times!! I know every word by heart now! But then, I was the one that convinced her to sit through it with me in the first place!
Think I'll go see what is on Turner Classics, maybe a good ol' summer time movie.....Hugs,
