Tom Lyle enjoyed his time with his nephew, swimming in The Villa Valentino's Olympic-size pool, playing badminton, dropping dimes in the slot machine in the game room - decorated like the Hawaiian Islands,
or listening to Bing Crosby sing Sweet Leilani, from the film Waikiki Wedding. When Unk Ile was busy Bill listened to The Green Hornet, - Fibber McGee and Molly and curled up on the sofa till he fell asleep.
For Christmas that year Tom Lyle had the Villa decorated with a 15 foot tree and strung colored lights on some of the trees surrounding the The Villa.
They were a family now, Bill, Evelyn and Tom Lyle and on Dec. 21, when the premier of Walt Disney’s first feature length animated film, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs came out, Unk Ile drove them to the Cathay Circle theater is Los Angles, to see it, with dinner at Brown Derby afterwards.

On Christmas Day Unk Ile brought out a little basket with a beautiful Cocker Spaniel puppy in it, named "Lady." Bill finally got his wish - a dog of his own.Be sure to visit my new Blog, Saffrons Rule at http://saffronsrule.com/
