Felt it was a straw day to on this bright (as you can see from squinting!) sunny day

That's another nice looking lid, Billy. I wore this Penney's Marathon on a grocery run last night...sorry about the bad t-shirt combo.

I took the morning off and went to the flying field. It was cold and windy. On my noggin' was my Akubra Flinders.

Let's Motor

Sunny... warmer... I got lost on the way to work today and walked in our Frederick Law Olmsted designed Delaware Park. I wore my Stetson Motor, which fits nicely again after a haircut.

Got my daughter a new camera, so she gave me back my old Nikon D1x... 5 pounds and 5 megapixels, a little hard to remember how to use it.

That's a great hat on you, Good. What is she.

I believe that's his Akubra FedIV.

FMW, is that really a Flinders? If so, then they've significantly changed the design...

Yep, that's a Fed IV! I wore that same hat today too.

p.s. OK, I'll stop it with the size 2 text. After reading yours, and another member's post, it's got to my attention that for some, it's harder to read like that. For me, it's easier than the large text I see right now on everybody's, though.

It has Flinders emblazoned on the sweat band. This one was made for Outback Trading and sold through JJ Hats in New York. The flinders in Australia is a black telescope crowned affair. I assume Outback ordered these up and they were made from Flinders bodies but dyed and blocked to the customer's specs. There might be a better name for it but I just call what is written on the sweat band.

Huh...that's not the only Akubra model made for Outback Trading that looks completely different from its brethren. I recall Mobile Vulgus' Akubra Pastoralist being a similar scenario. Anyway, thanks for the info! Looks good on you.
