Fun Stuff What fun to remember wearing one in the late 50's / early 60's. Ken. Thinking he probably couldn't pull it off anymore.:D

Sweet looking hat, I'm glad it came through OK. If I'm lucky I'll come across one in 7 1/8 some day. Best regards, Ken.

I'll Fess Up. During hot weather I wear a French style Pith Helmet around my place to do the maintenance. Having nearly two acres to mow, often a large Veggie garden, and lots of trimming to do, I spend a lot of time outside. A pith helmet is a sensible, comfortable piece of equipment. Plus, it...

Let me be the first one here to say that I learned to swim in the salt water. I was born on Whidbey Island in WA State where I still live. I was less than a few years old when my Mom and Dad took my brother and I to the beach to dig clams and catch Dungeness Crab. This is one of my earliest...

Words to live by. Say what you mean, mean what you say, always lead by example... Sometimes it's tough to pull this off, but when I do it I know I am doing right. And now I'll climb down off the soap box. Ken. Who also believes in the adage; It's better to remain silent and be thought a...
