Is this the same outfit he was wearing on the cover of Linda's book?
Yes! (See page 64 of this thread)
^^^ More, new...really cute photos. My 11 year old self is really enjoying them!!! I would have put these on my closet door, for sure... So where were they, in this red jacket photo?! It looks tropical, while the chair photo, doesn't really seem like tropical decor?

From the same day (Kennedy Center Honors) http://beatlephotoblog.com/photos/2010/12/214.jpg
Same day? I don't know what the background is on the 1st one...Costas?
Yeah the background is different, but Paul does look remarkably similar.

They were at the Beverly Hills Hotel. Remember, their "naughty weekend?"

You have to take out the to make it a clickable link or else the mods disable the BBCode and it turn it into gobbledegook. Fixed it for you.

We've had pages of pics of Martha in the past. I just saw 2 of these at the dog park today!

Great shots! Yes, Martha. I kept calling her Maggie in my mind.

It's in Paul's backyard. See Calico's newspaper post above. And add this fact to your dome knowledge... "ALICE COOPER GAVE HIM GROUCHO MARX'S BED FOR HIS MEDITATION DOME What about that sentence isn't captivating? While a quick Google search will tell you that this is already a well-distributed story, it's too good to leave out: for Paul and Linda's anniversary, Alice Cooper gave them a giant round bed that had been given to him by Groucho Marx. Apparently Groucho and Cooper had become friends--who knew?--and Groucho gave Cooper the bed, saying maybe he'd have better luck with it. (Wink wink, nudge nudge.) Cooper says he didn't, particularly, and he gave it to Paul and Linda to put in their meditation dome in their London home." http://www.biography.com/news/paul-mccartney-the-life-biography#!

More photos from inside (and outside) the dome, taken July 28, 1968 https://www.beatlesbible.com/1968/07/28/the-mad-day-out-location-seven/
The final location of The Beatles' Mad Day Out, in which hundreds of photographs were taken around London in the course of a day, was 7 Cavendish Avenue, Paul McCartney's house in St John's Wood, north London. The shoot took place inside the geodesic dome that McCartney had constructed in his back garden. As the sun went down, McCartney was photographed inside with his dog Martha, before being joined by the other Beatles and Mal Evans' son Gary. "We went back to Paul McCartney's house in St John's Wood, and after having tea we went out into his garden where there was this dome, like something out of James Bond or Doctor Who. We all lay around with a huge floppy dog in this strange science-fiction-like space." --Don McCullin, A Day In The Life Of The Beatles The final shots of this long day were of The Beatles standing outside the dome, photographed from below on the inside. "I used to sit round at my house with Robert Fraser, the gallery owner, listening to music. I'd started talking to him about having a folly. I loved the idea of follies and he put me in touch with an English architect who came up with my geodesic dome. It was my meditation platform. The dome is still there with a little Japanese garden leading up to it. So that's where we all ended up, in the dome." --Paul McCartney, A Day In The Life Of The Beatles, Don McCullin

Thank you so much for posting all those photos....I've seen various photos connected to that dome, and could never put it all together in my mind. Sooooo it's a really cool man cave out in the garden then... It must be amazing. Looks like a really great place to meditate. I can remember the days of Geodesic domes... Interesting the different shapes put together in that dome.
