Like you wouldn't believe, man.

That's a great shot. Don't think I've seen it before.

In an effort to clean up. Ironed my cotton shirts so they don’t look like a wrinkled mess. Shave my face so it looks nice intentional. Break out the nicer hats like this VS by Art Fawcett

Have a great safe day everyone.

Vintage Stetson today, my favorite shade of brown. Sorry about the bright son in the photo. Work hat when I’m plumbing so it gets dirty.

Its not been the best summer for hat wearing - working from home and really not going out much.

Today though the temperature was well into triple digits, so a good day for one of my favorites from Mr. Fawcett.

Old airy Resistol with a faint smell of burlap (I love that part):

I decided for my first post back after my Mom’s unexpected passing last week I would go with this hat she bought me for my birthday a few years back. As was normally the case she would ask me what I wanted for my birthday and I would generally say “oh I don’t know” or “I don’t need anything” but this particular time I said I had been looking at this hat on eBay. A few days later this beauty showed up at my door.

Biltmore Millennium Collection - Navy Blue
Made in Canada
5 inch crown as shaped
1 5/8 ribbon
3 inch brim with 1/4 bound edge

This was one of the first hats that when I opened the box, I was floored at how beautiful it was. It was also though my first wider brimmed hat at 3 inches and I could not get a feel for how to wear it... or what to do with the brim. As a result it went unworn and stays in its box... only to take it out and admire it from time to time. I had considered moving it along. Obviously now I am glad I did not do that and this one will stay with me as a treasured memory from my mom.

Be safe my friends

I also wanted to Thank you all for your condolences and kind words. I appreciate It more than you can possibly know. I wanted to respond to each of you individually but I didn’t want to take over the whole thread.

Here is our last photo together from my wrestling “hall of fame” induction this past February. I am so grateful I got to share this moment with her.

Be safe my friends. Wear your masks. For yourself and those you love. We will get through this.

Recently filled out a questionnaire from Cathead vodka in Jackson, MS. For my efforts received this "cool" LOL trucker style cap.
Stay safe y'all, wear a mask, wash your hands, fund the postal dept.

Yesterday, Satin Biltmore. This one has a almost Pork Pie bash, I guess it's a telescoping diamond?

Selentino for a long walk around the neighborhood.

That’s a great looking hat. I really like the color and bash. I also think the absence of side dents makes it pop!

Out Bird Busting again today. This is why I wear by Akubras. Feel like I will sweat thru my good hats on days like today. Hope I can catch this yellow budgie today.

By the way. Kids love us. Always come up and start a conversation.
Stay safe everyone

Knox Superfine Homburg - Chocolate Brown
5 3/4 Crown
2 inch Copper/brown grosgrain Ribbon
2 1/2 brim front/back - 2 1/4 sides - 5/8 binding

When @BobHufford tipped me off to this hat, from just an image of it’s dusty top, he said “This Might be something” I will say with full certainty I believe it is to me anyhow. And I will also give it a little story to go along with it.

The very last conversation I had with my mom before she passed last week... was a simple text from her asking what do you want for your birthday. To which I replied. “Hmm.. I don’t know” I had no idea she was even sick or that this would be our last “conversation” This hat had kind been in limbo with somewhat delayed shipping for a couple weeks... And I really had no idea what to expect I would find. On the day she passed... the day after my birthday... the box With this hat arrived at my door. Now being that my mother is forever known for being late... but NEVER missing anything. I have decided this is the last birthday present from my mom. And WOW is it beautiful! Thank you Mom. I love it! And thank you Bob for playing a part in making this happen.
