Getting ready to go visit my Grandbaby Willow. The way i been feeling lately i figure i outta start wearing my best!
Not bad for about a 100 year old hat.
Made by Berteil Paris. Pretty blue.
Hint...G. Borsalino started sweeping floors there, worked his way up to Master Hatter then started making his own. He learned well!

Ps: if the lights good over there maybe i’ll take some more pics if she lets me. Ha

I like how my new Champ looks hanging from the diner chair

I'm sure it's the diner that looks better because of the Champ.

Grandkids are one of the best therapies for what ails you - I hope you feel better soon!

It was in the 80's this afternoon, but how could you not wear a new felt hat meant for the outdoors on a trip to the lake to let the grandkids swim?





This is a Pecan color Trekker hat by Rick Walker of Phoenix Hats; there are more pictures of this hat over on the Phoenix thread. Only the second set of "selfies" I have ever taken in my life; I am BAD at it. The hat looks much better in real life, and not attached to me! But I couldn't pass up an opportunity to thank Rick again for a great hat on its first trip afield.

Sorry to hear you’ve not been feeling well, my friend.
Hats are all good and fine, and much better than leather jackets, but family is what it’s all about. I hope you enjoy your visit and feel better soon.

Went by Woodstock, Illinois, to visit my dear friend Albrecht Ragg's grave. While there, I was shown the hotel Bill Murray's character stayed in in the movie "Groundhog Day".
Albrecht was a PhD in history, and made more money working as a landscaper and gardener than he did teaching history in Loyola U, which I think speaks poorly of college history professor salaries.
