Only THREE more days...!!! Getting lined up.
I agree with the No Rules theory... weather permitting is what I think...and I do worry about rain days,,, only have the one (my Avatar) VS Milan... next Panama baby !!!
Watched a great Panama hat movie ... "Borderline" Raymone Burr Fred Mac Murray, Claire Trevor Soooo many cool wide brim, c-crown 1940's Montie's... bad movie great hats
Holy cow, Charlie! Now that's a collection!!
Oh my...that sounds like a true Pepto Bismol moment! Haha!May 15, traditionally was the day, Cindy. It's almost a very serious thing, and should NOT be ignored (where's that "tongue-in-cheek" emoticon?) Just like white shoes after Labor Day, etc.
Judging from the photos I found, looks like they made a regular hootenanny out of it.
And that "puts hair on your chest" line was an all-time favorite at my son's Cub Scout camping trip, back when... We could get those little guys to try or eat anything just by telling them that. Yup, he's 26, and still remembers.
You do have some nice straw hats for sure!In practice, of course, wear 'em if you've got 'em! However, when I was poking around looking for some info about SHD, the things I found were fantastic, depicting what must have been a great reason for a quasi-holiday, festivities included. The making of a fun time (albeit a marketing ploy) to swap hats looked they had one heck of party. Photos to follow.
Even absent the great straw hats, I don't know who said it first, but... "If you've have holiday, I'll celebrate!!"
Way to go, Rusty! Here in Copenhagen I'm a little more generous with temperatures, though. The first day past 68°F (equals 20°C) is "Ole-ficial Straw Hat Day"Here in Arkansas it was the other day when it hit 77 degrees
lol lol lol lol lol
When it Straw Hat Day? Is there a need for it to be on a set date? Today can be straw hat day...along with a shot of single malt and a few cashews to go along for the ride!
For some of you fellows, that might just put some hair on your chest! Hahahah !!!
