Milan Mania
Hi, O.K., WOW, just basically wow. I love it and hate it. I think I'd swing more to the love side if the brim were wider and the Milan ribbon was a different color of Milan. Never heard of that one before. Later -
Now Forming! the Campaign Hat Corps
Hi, I looked at those, but I wear a 7 1/4 or 7 3/8 extra long oval so hats that fit me front to back have a gap at the sides. I have a little WPG equipment for shooting Spanish-American War Matches. Later -

BUCKAROO BONANZA! - The Hats that Major Mike Moore Makes
True, and it was the day before Easter, even though it was a great day, Downtown Covington wasn't all that busy. Planned it that way. Later -
No Love For Black Hats
Hey, I have a John Wayne Shootist style in Pecan and it's a good look. On the other hand, Pecan isn't always Pecan. Some of the browns aren't a consistent color. I have a Buckaroo Hatter Pecan and an Art Fawcett Indiana Jones hat that aren't close to the same color. Later -

BUCKAROO BONANZA! - The Hats that Major Mike Moore Makes
Thanks Rusty, I had a great day. Mike and Rocky did a LOT of work Saturday, going start to finish on two for me, and one for a gentleman from Mississippi. When I say Start to Finish, all three were hat blanks when we started. He also did a little work fixing other hats during the day... -
Post New Hats Here!
Hi I went by Buckaroo Hatters in Covington Tennessee to pick up a couple of hats, a Black Quigley and another rough rider hat. Four because I have a Bone one that I wear in the summer for dress, a tan one that's just a touch small, a much later tan one for dress, and I needed another for... -
No Love For Black Hats

What Did You Drink Last Night?
A few of us went to this place: http://batteredboar.com/ They don't spend much time on the website so the beers on there aren't available now. I had a pancake beer, did taste like Maple Syrup. The Saltun was a beer Margarita, nothing below 8.5%. The German Beer police would try to shut him...- 1961MJS

Your Most Disturbing Realizations
Sorry for your loss. Both my Dad and Mom have passed, Dad 2011, Mom 2014. As long as they don't spend too long in a Nursing Home they and you are very lucky. Dad lasted about 5 weeks, Mom 9 weeks, but my old neighbor beat them all to heck. He was in less than 12 hours. They didn't even...- 1961MJS

What Did You Drink Last Night?
Hi The arrogant ba***rd rings a bell, I've also had Dirty ba***rd and one or two others. My current favorite is Iron Monk Milk Stout. Smooth, Malty, and Purdy strong. I can't drink IPA's anymore, they make my stomach HURT if I have 3. I did get a taste of an El Segundo Pale Ale at Granville...- 1961MJS

Western, anyone?
Just returned from Palmdale, more than a few raindrops. Great hat, love the shape, but not the trim color. Might be one from Mike Moore in my future. Later -
Western, anyone?
Dang, I tried to bead a knife sheath for a lady I work with who makes a Snowman Cake for her Xmas party every year. I gave up on beading as did my daughter. I had the story. That beading is lots harder than it looks. I would have thought the Telescope would be a natural with the beaded... -
Western, anyone?
Hi again O.K. That one fits your face a bit better than the black one (IN MY SERIOUSLY HUMBLE OPINION). Later -
Western, anyone?
Hi I'm an Okie now, so I can wear cowboy hats more. I grew up in small town Southern Illinois, where I was a city slicker. My parents taught, no cattle, no hogs, no corn, and no horses. Only the guy whose family owned horses wore cowboy boots, dirt bike riders had Wellington's. The rest of... -

The End of the Collector Mindset
From living in the South, if you want the stuff on the curb to get taken, you have to mark it $25.00 to $50.00 so that they'll think they're getting something worth stealing. Left a lawnmower that I got for $25.00 with our first house. Put it on the curb, no one took it. The neighbors (local...- 1961MJS

The End of the Collector Mindset
Hi My parents saved everything. Dad's sister was 8 years older than Dad and passed away before his parents did, so Dad got all of Grandma's junk. The neighbors come over and swiped the two dozen or so hand made quilts Grandma had made over the years. Mom was an only child and managed to get...- 1961MJS

BUCKAROO BONANZA! - The Hats that Major Mike Moore Makes
Hi I plan to. I work with a guy who could use a decent hat. He's from California born and raised, but is also full blooded German. He needs help with the hat so he doesn't look like Oliver Hardy. I had dinner at Erwin's Restaurant over towards the river. They had really good food. Later -
BUCKAROO BONANZA! - The Hats that Major Mike Moore Makes
Hi Everyone I didn't realize how long it had been since I visited Covington. I have one picture at Mike's and one at Pop's in Arcadia Oklahoma. I really like the way the hat looks and fits. Unfortunately, I take after my Mom and don't smile well. I had a great time in Covington, and have a... -
