Bill Dean's July 4th Georgetown Pool Party

Bill Dean with two of his guests at the Dodge Mansion, his home in Georgetown where for the past several years he has hosted a July 4th pool party. Think of it this way: Holmby Hills has the Playboy Mansion and Hef and Georgetown has the Dodge Mansion and Bill. The difference is Bill's business, with more than 2,000 employees worldwide, is the federal government and at the top secret level. The security at the party is pervasive and tight, especially at the front entrance. This year the grilled hamburgers were especially good and, as always, the chilled Veuve Cliquot was in endless supply. Some photos:
