It was a beautiful summer evening, and Barbara had set up on the patio. Women wore light, low-cut summer dresses and most of the men - there were a lot of men - wore linen slacks, nice loafers and Tommy Bahama-style shirts. I saw former Assemblywoman Marilyn Brewer and people who appear in the society columns.
Dee, the Tupperware "consultant" made her entrance at 6:45 p.m., walking out of the house and down the steps to the patio clad in a huge Dolly Parton wig, a red-gingham blouse tied up at her midriff, a pair of Daisy Dukes slit to her waist and red 6-inch heels. Dee, as was evident to all, was a drag queen.
