Well, today's trip to NW Hats was a bust. It was my fault, I should have looked at Mike's Facebook posts closer. He is taking a few days off with family. He has earned it, toiling away on all of our custom orders. He will be back Friday, so I'll try again, unless the eclipse crazies are clogging the old highway. Went looking for a pug, he has one in his window that is pretty wild, it may fit the bill.

Lookin' pretty good, Red. Sorry you didn't catch up with Mike. Bummer, but like you say, he'll be back Friday. I like that pug on the hat in the store window. Mike is putting pugs on a couple hats for me. I'll have to ask about the selection. I was just going to go with burgundy and blue or brown... didn't even dawn on me that he'd have other, more colorful, offerings!

I do think I'll try to head down by HWY 99, the idiots will all be on I-5 hopefully.

The weather here ain't all that, it's basically early autumn, if the sun stays on I may get my lawns cut this evening.

Spend the day in that beautiful Borsalino, it's great!

Yesterday was Real Nutria.

I do like that Nutria Joao, great color and finish. Cool photo.

Wearing a Rand's Custom Hatters 8X Beaver while wondering if the county has marked the street for buried treasure or if I'll just be trapped in my driveway for weeks.

They probably won't share their treasure with you, but great hat anyway.

After a very slow boat ride cross country by FedEx (12 days from end of auction...), my Stetson St. Regis gray homburg arrived today. I am very happy, other than this is the tightest, small 7 1/4 on earth. I popped it on right out of the box and had to do a double take on the size, I thought it was a 7! Off to Mike Miller's in the morning for a stretch and a LO treatment. Still, this is a great homburg, once it is my size, sure to get some major head time. Pictures in appropriate threads when I get the images processed.

Great St. Regis, looks very much like mine. Congratulations, Mike!
