from Aaron's. Could arrive tomorrow since I'm only 100 or so miles away, provided Fedex doesn't send to the left coast first or some other weird routing, it should arrive tomorrow.

Pictures to follow ;-)

Does it matter?
Just a little tease for you:

A rather appropriate sign for a hat store don't you think?

The foliage looks gorgeous too

But that hat looks even more awesome. (No fair teasing the customers <G>). Can't wait to see it.

(Yes, the sign fits perfectly.)

Wow, Barb, that is one great hat!

I have a Akubra Federation, Squatter and Camp Draft, they are wonderful hats.

Hope to see some photos when you get it.

Oh yes, pix will be posted

Seeing it on Aaron reinforced my opinion that it will look good on me. Same basic lines as the hat in my avatar.

the specs from Aaron's web site on this are:

Material: Fur felt

Sweatband: Leather

Lining: White satin

Crown: 4 1/4"

Brim: 2 7/8" bound edge

Also could you give the specs on it for us?

I really like the looks of that color. I too would like to know the specs.

FEDEX mis-shipped, of course...

and the rep from Fedex said "with an economy service you shouldn't expect much".

so who knows.

Barb, I'm not sure why you're saying it was mis-shipped. We are tracking it and it is scheduled for delivery later on today. The tracking you looked at says it went to Littleton, NH because that's the depot that services our location. I know you're anxious to receive the hat but please be assured it is scheduled for delivery today.

It left Willington CT at 3:13AM

Doesn't say where it is going next. Don't know where it spent the day yesterday, but it left Littleton, then arrived back there at 5.30pm-ish and left shortly after that for CT where it spent the night. (Hope it had a good time.) Do you think Fedex needs a GPS?

Did it leave CT yet? Come on Barb give us the DL! What's the ETA? Guess you're right about the GPS. I guess UPS and DHL as iffy as this, IMO. LOL

I'm sorry I needed to use some abbreviations urgently. I have a prescription.

So Barb whats' the news with your CEO? :D

On a truck for delivery

according to the web. DHL is great here, UPS depends on what driver is on the route on any given day. Fedex has always been horrific.
