Always a pleasure to watch the morning show with Mike and Dave. Fine looking lids, gentlemen...

Agree.

...David, I think you should consider keeping the 'stache!

Double agree.

Borsalino Marque Grand Luxe XXXXXX Amiata

Don't know what color Amiata is. Looks brown, green and dark charcoal at various times. Perhaps they just added all the dye colors into the vat at one time[huh]

 

[bowlerman]

Thanks everyone! You are too kind. The SD prairie does have its charm on occasion.

Love that shot, Bowlerman. It looks like you're waiting for the bearded members of ZZ Top to show up with the girls in the hot rod!

Too bad they didn't show!

A small local adventure yesterday:

So I found the tree farm... didn't open until 2pm, which didn't leave me enough time to get back to pick up the kids from school(s). In any case, I decided to take the three kids with me back to the farm after school before they closed at 5pm!

Hey-- I can see Iowa from here! (literally where the flat ends and the ridge begins.)

Let's see, so many choices. Some help from the kids didn't hurt.

This one, Dad! (This is what a musician looks like trying to cut down a tree.)

It put up a good fight... and won. Hey where'd dad go?

Rest in peace, father dear.

That's wild, Robert. I agree with you - my Amiata is a medium gray.

:eusa_clap x 6. Amiata volcanic stone... an Italian/Japanese thing.

Part deux

Wait... Oboists don't go down that easily! Take that, Fraser Pine! haHA!

Isn't this what we pay those guys for?

Couldn't have been a more beautiful drive home...

Sweated and dusted, for real!

 

[Rodkins]

Great pics, B-Man. Thanks.

 

[bowlerman]

jlee- nice to see that in outdoor lighting-- great hat, and seems to be a perfect color for you!

rodkins-- awesome VS, and I dig the western flange on that 7XCBOR!

Perry-- your Tilden could be a close relative of David's BG Whippet-- both very nice!

Nice shape on that black hat, Tommi.

rlk-- would you consider posting pics that show more facets of the spectrum of that hat? the color sounds intriguing.

 

[Aureliano]

great and fun shots, Jeff.

 

[delectans]

Wonderful pictorial, Jeff. Life's little adventures are ever so precious, especially when you can share them with your family.

Amiata pair

That's wild, Robert. I agree with you - my Amiata is a medium gray.

 

[randooch]

Fun series, Jeff! You'll need to cut quite a few branches off to make room for some hat boxes.

AGREED!! Outstanding pics, Jeff!!!

South Dakota must be difficult in a lightening storm.

Nice pair, Vic!

Thanks for the kind words gentlemen.

B-Man: The Oxblood is actually a lot more versatile than I would have thought. I'm really enjoying this lid!

 

[zetwal]

Zetwal that Zephyr is a beaut!

Thanks, hatophile. It's lightweight and comfortable as well.
