What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

An antique parabuntal hat body that I had dreams of blocking and finishing myself. Happy that reason triumphed over fancy... Graham Thompson did a fine job (about 8 years ago). Hard to appreciate how light this hat is - 1.8 ounces on the scale, much of which is sweatband and ribbon.

So envious of this hat Alan. I have a Baku (?) body that will always be too small ... no matter who blocks it.

Big Indiana Jones fan here. But I hate spoilers. Looks like I will be dropping a few Social media people/groups who post behind the scenes without a precursor of “spoilers” at least until the new movie comes out. First week of filming and I already know more than I like to.

VS Cuenca on a windy day with choppy waves. Somehow the hat stayed on my head in 18 mph winds.

I extended my daily swim 1/4 mile past the lifeguard tower. They are still tolerating me, now that they know I am coming out at the South end of the beach they can keep an eye on me. A 1/2 mile swim in choppy open ocean is enough for me for now.

Our living room and front yard for the last couple of days as we took some well needed time to clear our heads and celebrate my wife’s birthday.

Yes, Robert is building a great reputation. I have 4 in the Wolfbrae refurb queue myself and 1 new build in the idea stage!

Thanks, Randy. It’s seen better days and it’s off to Canada’s premiere hatter for a new lease on life. I have several projects going with Wolfbrae @belfastboy and I enjoy them every bit as much as the projects I have with the big names. Your vented crown tropical felt is on my list.
