Thank you Red.
This was something like my 10th time to return to the U.S. from living internationally and every time that custom’s official says “Welcome home, sir” I get a little tear in my eye. Your comment reminded me of that.
Thanks Professor Zombie!

Springfield - I think some of the overflow students from CFI headed up there for training. I’ll be down in Neosho the next four weeks. I’ll blow a horn for hat lovers the world over!
Started a training program today for my Class A CDL. I was the only guy with felt - the trusty Last Drop 3X. He recently had a pre-WWII cavalry cord added to him.

Nathan

Thanks BamaBoots, that saves me a lot of looking - Hobby Lobby was exactly where I was going to go. What about J.R.’s - do they do any real hat stuff out there or just stock the modern models?
So I needed a workhorse hat and decided on this old Bailey 5X. It looks like it needs a good brushing - I certainly hope it doesn’t come with any bad odors that can’t be brushed off!
It also needs a ribbon. Anybody got any ideas where one can pick up some two or three ply ribbon to put on it...
I grew up and continue to live very internationally. There was a time when I was having a bitter struggle with my American identity, but I couldn’t for the life of me get over the thrill of the Revolution and the first few decades of our nation. Man, what an exciting time! I’ve recently...
