Had these three new arrivals sitting outside getting some sun before I was gonna clean them up. While eating dinner I hear a tremendous freak downpour out of nowhere with the sun still Shining bright. I dashed Outside to grab them like a flash. And almost as quickly as it started... it stopped. As I often say... welcome to Florida. If you don’t like the weather.... wait a minute.
The water repellency of the Durafelt seems to have been on display more so than the others.
Looks like a good brushing may need to wait another day.

The weather has been somewhat disturbed. Right now with the heat not too surprising for the afternoon T-storms... and the occasional flash rains.
we had gone about two months without Any rain... then had about two weeks of almost 24 hour rain. Then day after I mowed the lawn. Back to over a week of no rain. Dried everything back up.

I didn't get a picture right away but one night a few weeks ago I left my yard hat, a resistol Stagecoach, out on a stump. Sometimes I take it off and forget I left it outside. I went to bed to the pitter patter of rain not thinking a thing. Then I woke up in the middle of the night to thunder and a downpour and remembered that my hat was still outside. I thought about just leaving it until morning but then I was worried it would blow away so I got out of bed, put on a hat to go retrieve my hat. It was completely waterlogged at this point. I hung it in the basement where the dehumidifier runs and then sat it back on the stump the next morning. The sun helped dry it out faster. It was back in action that day. Still looks the same.

Had to do some repairs to the chicken coop after work. It's been raining all week so I've been wearing my new Bushman to break it in a little.

Got caught in a torrential downpour out of nowhere walking to the car last night in the Resistol Kitten finish.

Wouldn’t be my first choice for a rain and bad weather hat... but bad planning and Florida weather prevailed and here we are.
All for one and one for all!

I know this is not the preferred style on the lounge, but an Adam Harvard 40 got caught in a quick rain today.

Fresh from surviving about 6 years on our zombie/scarecrow. His name is Jedediah and he sits out in the front yard this time of year and after Halloween he goes out back by the garden to keep an eye on things. He got a new face and shirt this year but still wearing the same hat, which I believe was an 80s Stetson 4X.

6 days a week, I get in a 5+ mile hike. The majority of the time,I reach for my Akubra Banjo Patterson.
But when the rain is really bad. I grab my Bailey Lite Felt Curtis model hat. It's a hat that I've owned for years.
This morning it was pouring rain, so here's my Bailey "Wet Felt" hat along with one view during this morning's hike.

Great water repellency there. Wonderful view.
