Thanks for all of the kind words about the homburg this morning.

I had to run home at lunch and just for the heck of it, I grabbed my old Knox Foxhound for a more casual afternoon.

This hat is my first vintage. I stumbled upon it in the mid '90s in a Salvation Army store in Clifton Forge, Virginia, a little town in the Allegheny mountains where my folks lived when I was in college.

This hat has had a lot of head time and I have a soft spot in my heart for it. Don't wear it too much anymore.

Stetson Saxon in Caribou today, along with a Dobbs tie. Was surprised to find I don't own a grey Dobbs hat to match the tie, so I'm on the hunt for a hat to make a set. Any excuse to buy a new hat. :)

Mark, it just occurred to me in another thread you said today was your birthday. I forgot.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MARK!

Hope your hat comes in the mail for your birthday.

Happy birthday Mark
Somebody you all know has a monumental birthday in a few days time. Her name is Tina, and she makes a brilliant shirt. She looks good in any sort of hat, but her preference is for the vintage look.

The photo is deliberately in black & white to reflect the era that she is so effectively dressed in. It's also a good reason to show you how I see her. For me she is forever the lady I have loved since first meeting her. I'm too much a gentleman to give away her years, but we have been married for 48 years, you work it out. Here's that lady that I met back then.

Hey, Mark! Count me in the chorus... HAPPY Birthday!!

Teeny, Tiny Tina looks Totally Terrific, GHT (both then and now)! Congrats to the two of you. I'm not sure which of you is more fortunate, but I'm guessing YOU are, sir!! Moreover, you might buy her a new handbag; is that the same one in both photos?
