Hey D @Dlaniger , Are you going to keep the caterpillar gone ? It looks good either way . Sharp as Always (WIKI : Sharp Dressed Man AKA Dlaniger) !
The Azaleas are blooming like crazy , Beautiful ! Great Lid , too btw . Before I'd even attempt to come close I'd have to get my buddy's wife or Mom to pick out my clothes , first they'd have to go with me to buy them . Its sad I know . Keep up the good work !
Thanks for the kind words, Michael. I'll grow the caterpillar back. Just trying out the babyface look for awhile.

Love the collection of thin ribbons today. All the others look great too. It's calling for rain all day here in Central Ohio. I was able to take some time and do a little work on this early '60s Royal Stetson thin ribbon. Although "The Open Road" wasn't stamped on the sweat it was obvious by the original styling when I got it that's what it is. I did some work on the crease and reflanged the brim...

A good day for listening to some good tunes from way back when....

George Jones, "White Lighting"...

The original version of "White Lighting". Originally written and performed by J.P. Richardson, "The Big Bopper"
$10 says you've got more talent in one little finger than I have in my whole body. Simply beautiful work, Terry.

Happy Friday.

Thanks for all of the likes and kind words about yesterday's Mirtillo homburg.

Today, going with the funky pre-WWII Adam homburg.

And... we all have our dreams. Yesterday, one of mine came true. (Admittedly... some dreams are stranger than others, but they are still someone's dreams.)

For a couple decades I've been wanting a specific type of sport coat. In early January, I found a white sport coat at Goodwill for a few bucks. I sent it to a guy in Georgia for some modifications. It returned to me yesterday.

I wear it today along with a big grin.

When I walked in to a restaurant last night to meet my family, my 15 year old son says "THAT IS SICK." As a dorky dad, that's gonna be a treasured moment to pack away and fondly recall for years to come.

Hot damn, Matt! That's cool as hell. Ima gettin' me one!

Q: Why is this man standing in the pouring rain taking selfies?
A: Because this Gus Miller looks better in natural light than fluorescent.

Ummm... Is the Gus Miller imaginary? No attachments to your post.
