Thank you for ALL the shout-outs,@Redfokker, @T Jones, @AbbaDatDeHat! It was a TON of fun, despite the oppressive heat.
Stefan, meeting in Hanover has the added advantage of being the home of Dartmouth College, and the streets are usually busy with students. We CAN show them how it's done! As Alan and I stood looking at hats in the back of my vehicle, a young fellow broke out of his group of friends to tell us he was impressed with our SHIRTS. He was also the only one in his crowd with an Aloha shirt on. I felt compelled to ask what he thought of our hats, and the collection in the back of the car. He was politely impressed. His pals, less so. From many years of business, I can tell when the audience "glazes over," and these guys were gone.

Thanks Red. The Marathon lost out to the boater in the end.
IMG_7849 by Michael A2012, on FlickrCuriously, the boater got no mentions in the comments I got today on my clothes. It was the big hit the last time I wore it to a festival.

Thanks Stefan. I had been getting a fairly regular dose of felt with morning coffee, but as you see it lost out to the boater for my outing to the jazz fest. There was a good crowd yesterday as it was a bit cooler, and some good music.

The butterfly effect might do its work here, Charlie. Years from now they'll get the urge to buy a good hat for a reason they can't explain or remember!

I'm not normally drawn to neckties, but that one is stunning!
Those fools! Many of us would kill to get a glimpse of even a small portion of your wonderful hat collection, and they'll never know how close they were to being in the presence of greatness.

Ha ha, that black binding does summon up the sound of sword play.
Thanks Perry. Seems like we've been kind of light on Island shirts and straw around here this summer. You were bringing it today.
Thanks Bob. I can't compete with those fine straws you've been showing us lately.
Thanks all,
Michael

FANTASTIC, as usual, Michael!! We continue to "hold it down" for the newer (younger) people.
If my memory serves, that "floating" method of attaching the sweatband was trademarked as "Bon- ton Ivy."

The "Animal House" crowd couldn't be expected to understand... yet! I did want to flatten a beer can on one of their foreheads.
