What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

[monbla256]

We planted this Japanese maple in front of our house the year we purchased it (1986). The foliage is red when the sun is high, green as the sun drifts behind the house and then crimson for a few days right before they fall. The drop happens en masse over 24 hours. Today was that day.

The tree has served as a nice background for fall WHAYWT photos... it will be on to a new location tomorrow.

We've been loosing leaves since July. No real color down here just shades of brown. Nice to see some GREEN grass!! I like your hat BTW

RBH, Alan, Rodkins - thanks guys. I always enjoy wearing the Playboy, the proportions are just right! Your's is looking good, Alan!

SBG - I like the Adam, both the style and the colour.

Monbla - super CD.

Rodkins - cool Borsalino today.

Maser - the felt on your JHS does look super soft.

Jeff - nice Knox and you certainly look to be enjoying yourself wearing it!

Aureliano, Thanks! A pre 1945 JHS soft felt like this one is extremely hard to find in any size / model.

Sad. If during your searches you find one in 71/8 and similar color please let me know, Steve.

This JHS is actually is on the stiff side but soft to the touch. I think it has Nutria because the felt is very dense and appears designed to not have side dents. I haven't seen anything similar on the FL.

Alan, if I saw someone wearing that hat and jacket, it would instantly command respect. Now you are ready to go do great things.

Five dollar week continues... I'm mad about the Gadabout (Disney, early 1940s).

ps... thank you for the postings and comments on this thread. I really enjoy seeing the photos and replies. For me, the exercise of taking a daily picture has been a fun diversion that gets me thinking a little about what to wear, something to which for many years I didn't pay much mind.

Another hat for me to drool over.

 

[EggHead]

Thanks Perry... I've been thinking I need some new expressions.

Alan, if you are looking for new expressions, ponder on something like this:

2 + 2 = 5

Yup. Me too.

Today, in solidarity with protesters across the nation, I decided to:

Thanks Perry... I've been thinking I need some new expressions.

Here are a few I'm sure you could pull off with aplomb:

Sardonic

Bemused

Quizzical

Mildly Annoyed, but Outwardly Patient

I agree with your sentiment, Alan, although I have been somewhat deliquent the past few weeks. I'ts fun to see what folks are wearing and with what hats. I feel like ya'll are my neighbors practically.

 

[hatophile]

Alan,
I think you should do a photo shoot with different hats and different expressions. Worth a thread?

 

[alanfgag]

I've been wanting to try an animated GIF... the one I saw with Douglas was a classic.
