My wife just gave me a call at work to let me know I have two packages waiting for me at home. One is from PanamaBob with a few hats from eBay (My first Panama hat) and the second is from Mr. Delk with my Crystal Skull Adventurebilt!

Pictures will follow but it might be later this evening (I always seem to get these packages on my Karate night!)

Congrats on the hats. My AB came a couple of weeks back, and it is a great feeling. Of course it's hitting 100 today, which makes it a better time for those Panamas than the AB.

Here's a few pictures

Here is one of the panamas. It has a blue pugree. I love this hat, the brim is very floppy.

This is all three panamas. The two on either end are the same style but one on the left is natural.

PanamaBob should open a sideline business making cat beds.

Robert was great to work with and I can't recommend him enough. I know these are not the Fino quality that some loungers have but I think they are really nice. I also wanted to try out a few to get an idea of what I would like (style and color) when I buy a really nice panama from Robert.



The next box was from Adventurebilt. Steve contacted me a few weeks ago but I had no idea my hat was so close to shipping. It was a nice surprise!

Steve did an amazing job on the hat! I asked both my sons who's hat I was holding and without a second thought they both said, Indiana Jones. :D

Sorry about the picture quality. I snapped these real quick and I could have used a bit more light. These pictures don't really do the hats justice but I'll try to get some better ones later.
