Nice day for a stroll...Panama Open Road

DarrelMorris, cool bowler modification. Are there other pics? I'm curious to know how that hat started out.

I'm sorry I didn't take any in process photos. It started out as a fur felt blank from Winchester. I blocked it on a 5 1/2" tall plastic dome Hat Shaper.

Che--was Ethel taking the pictures? Great look with the OR and all-khakis. I took the Optimo off and stayed inside the rest of the day.

 

[DarrelMorris]

Cool enough for felt this morning but by afternoon it will be too warm. I just got the Optimo back from Chicago where it got a cleaning, a slight re-sizing, and a new sweat band. With warmer weather arriving here, this one may stay in the box for awhile after today.

That's a great looking hat. I really like the reflection shot.

Great photos Che... brim up, brim up... vive la différence!

Robert, that hat is my favorite of the old Cheyennes... I'm happy to see it again.

Thank you for the nice comments on my Saturday sun day photos.

Eric, I'm glad you went out to spot Jupiter. Holding binoculars steady, you should be able to see the Galilean moons strung out like tiny pearls. In the small scopes we had a great view of Europa just barely peaking out from the edge of the planet as it began a transit in front and watched Io blink into view as it emerged from Jupiter's shadow. Grand stuff. I used to spend quite a lot of time imaging Jupiter with my big scope, until everyone started using bigger ones. Aperture envy got the best of me.

Che, here is my old Dobbs panama in the light of day. One of my working day straws, comfortable and not pristine or precious, just a good old friend.

Great weekend of lids, all! Although, David it's not fair using such beautiful models for your hats. But be careful what you wish for, as those hats don't appear to be overly too large for those cute noggins! just a little more time...
Yesterday my momentary lapse into the past...

The blue smoke VS Wanderer is very nice, indeed!

On Saturday my daughter returned from a semester doing academic research in the Yucatan. Knowing I love fedoras, she purchased this for me. I can't really figure out what it's made from. Made in the Yucatan of Mexico. Typically I wouldn't wear a stingy brim, but it's a gift from my daughter.
