Thank you, Nathan. I'm grateful to my good FL friends Brent and Stefan for this one ending up in my collection.
Great Whippet you sported today, btw. I'd really love one of those in the herd.

You look the part but you need to put some miles on that Territory. It’s just hard to beat up an Akubra. I’ve never participated in a living history event but it sounds very interesting. And Lord knows I love me some camping! Take a bunch of pics at that event and share them with us.

Not a Whippet, but a whip stitched Dobbs Gay Prince while dropping off a hat at the post office for a trade with a fellow Lounger:

Another wet Akubra. Stylemaster for Monday and Tuesday. All of my Akubras are size 59 or 60. This is a 59, but (especially after my haircut on Sunday) it’s sitting on my ears. Perhaps the reason for my sour expression.
If my head does have to shrink, please let it go all the way to a 56!

Stratton Hats The Lawman in Forest Green Milan Straw
Another one a bit too big. I picked up this hat and yesterday’s Dobbs VVL earlier this summer on my quest to fulfill my end of the trade with John @moehawk before we settled on a Vanzina he had his eye on. Havn‘t decided to move it on or not…. I wonder how it would respond to attempting to steam in a front pinch.

LOL - thanks Randy!You're getting waaaaay too many great hats, my friend
You're right, it's an embarrassment of riches. I buy them thinking, "this will be perfect on the truck." Never mind I already have 15 others that would do just as well.
The 3x still awaits its maiden voyage, btw. It's still too warm, but he and I have become fast friends around the house.

Thanks for the comment. We will be driven in, no personal vehicles or modern convinces like propane, tents, phones or laptops allowed. The public will be allowed in Sat & Sun during the day. I may get some pics early the first afternoon before it starts. We used to do some of this more regularly before the Covid lockdown a few yrs ago.

The changes are dramatic-minutes apart. Dusk to sunrise. A walkabout in a Gannon Wanderer (silverbelly with charcoal trimmings).

That is just FANTABULOUS!! Wow!
That is one great looking Dalton Homburg, Jonathan. Love the pink brim binding. That colour often goes so well with a grey felt.
The ribbon and bow treatment is quite unique. Great all round, eye catching look.

Dalton on the way to mail a hat trade to my good friend, Jonathan. GP for a Gu.
Only real hat people may know which hats those are, though the Gu may take some thought.

Dusted the 10x off today.
These 70s-era Stetsons get no love around the Lounge, but this is a great hat for what it is: super soft and super rugged. I think they stitched it with fishing wire.
If it weren’t so darn big, I’d definitely take it in the semi.
As things stand, this should probably be filed under “Hats I wear but not out of the house.”
Reluctantly, though. I reluctantly don’t wear it.

I like it. If you were driving that rig in a movie… I bet it might be a hat of choice.

Only in a movie!
There’s no way to even sit behind the wheel in this thing.
Besides, I’d have to put it in the trailer at night unless I wanted to share a bunk.
They’d have to assign me two docks to unload!
