When I was a kid, my dad and I trapped in south Georgia (fox, coon, beaver, coyote, wildcat...) At a GTA meeting (Georgia Trappers Association... sort of like a fair) my dad bought a Beaver Brand (I think) pure beaver hat... it was light brown/sage with dark brown streaks in it and a brown leather hatband. That was HIS trapping hat. When I was in college, I needed a hat for a summer stint as a camp counselor in Alabama, and I "borrowed" his hat. Been wearing hats ever since. I lost or someone stole that hat, though. One day I went looking for it and it was no longer in my possession. Don't know what happened to it. Might have burned up in a friend's housefire back in '03-04 when I was storing some stuff in his garage. I just don't know. Here's a couple pics of me at a very young looking 20 with the hat...
