Y'all be safe down there!!!

For another (much less bothersome) storm here in New England the Royal Stetson OR, late 1950s...

Thanks for the concerns and well wishes, folks. Everyone survived down here. There were a few injuries reported west of town, but thankfully no loss of life.

Here's a pic of what's left of a local liquor store that shows just how crazy tornadoes can be. Notice how the store is completely gone, but none of the bottles on the shelf are even turned over.

Here also is a pic of the Royal Stetson that's riding with me. I'm wearing my dirty work cap this morning, but I'll need a proper hat for later this afternoon when the work is done.

Ok, if you are talking to someone and taking pictures it looks a bit weird. Like you're mouth is open all the time.

Stetson panama btw. Rain and wind this afternoon. Temps back to more or less manageable [emoji15]

Super clean Stetson Serge! It looks good with that snazzy jacket.

The super sleuths definitely know how to rock a homburg:

+1 love this! I don't recognize the image of Sean though?

Thanks, Harv! I like the RM Williams you're sporting today, too (although you don't look anything like RM himself...).

Does he know you have his hat?

I returned home on Tuesday from a family vacation on the Oregon coast. This is a photo I took on the beach there. It was very relaxing, and I didn't get onto the fedora lounge at all, so I found over a hundred unread pages in this thread. I hope nobody will be offended too terribly if I don't read them all. I mean I love seeing everyone's wonderful hats, but it would probably take weeks to catch up.

Anyway, happy summer to everyone!

I'm glad you enjoyed our Pacific Northwest and the Oregon Coast. Where did you go? Great looking lid and photo.

Missed this one last night. You really clean up nice my friend! That Whippet goes so well with that double breasted jacket. Wish I could pull of that look. Impressive and a joy to see.

Heading down south to Ecuador. I don't know how often I can get online, friends. I'll have my cell phone but other than that I don't know how often I can be online or the availability of internet cafes, especially when travelling.

Ecuador is a nice place, but if you read the US State Dept pages about the country you'll quickly see personal safety is paramount. I'm generally with family and have had no problems, but tourists can be targeted there so it's advisable NOT to stick out... my wife is adamant that I wear no flashy clothes, never walk around with a cell phone or camera in your hands, NEVER display cash in public.... and do NOT wear anything but an old ball cap on your head. Theft and robbery are huge, so is sequestro express, or kidnap express, where your taxi driver takes you down an alley where armed accomplices are waiting to rob you... and maybe assault you or worse... then you get dumped out in the country to find your way back on your own.

I've never had a problem in 5 years, but have seen some younger hoodlums casing us at the Malecon in Guayaquil. Thieves work in teams, too, so sometimes you get robbed and don't even know what happened.... distraction, spill food or water on you, steal your stuff and run away in the crowd.

Anyway, I can't just be sitting on the phone and/or internet when I'm out and about. At the family homes I'll try to touch base. I consider y'all my friends and I hope to take some pics to share with you later. Maybe a few during the trip. If you see me in a hat it'll be a Panama hat, most likely a Cuenca as we are heading there for a couple days. Home base is Quayaquil, the hottest, most humid city in the country. Ironicaly, though, it'll be 98-100F here in Oregon on Saturday/Sunday and only 85 in Guayaquil.

Take care, mates!
