Looking very sharp for a Monday morning, Mike!

Thanks everyone. Alan, once again, NY does not seem to follow Ohio weather. She was catching those as they fell.

Even better!... she is the raining queen of Fedoras Afield in my book.

Adam Executive in Brown

Good morning.

Out this morning in my Adam Executive. Pristine condition 50's fedora that has a stylish ribbon. The edge binding is an olive/brown color. I do enjoy the straight front and the gentle curves of the brim. The wind trolley broke this morning when I was getting the hat ready for the windy morning walk by the lake. The end, with the loop, the string just snapped. I put a square knot to get it back to wearing ready. I am the only one who would know or notice. I will source a replacement in the correct color. Saving the old and getting a new cord will make the hat ready for the next windy morning.

Thanks for allowing me to share by Executive, Eric -

SBG, that is a good looking hat. I have to agree that the lines and color are pleasing to look at.

Weekend Hats


Saturday out and about. Visiting some of our favorite antique shops around town. '40s Stetson Whippet.



A rare find. Circa 1900-1930s pond yacht in wonderful condition. Improperly rigged, but with original sails, rigging and fabulous, early Braine Gear.



Enjoying a brilliant Autumn afternoon on Sunday. Cavanagh.

Here I am just after returning from a cruise to the Bahamas. The vest is alpaca and wool. Bought in USA. Ivory fedora.

As Alan pointed out, it's officially Fall. That means that it's time to go apple picking, hay riding, and pumpkin patching.

WONDERFUL pictures, Lefty!! They really put me in the fall spirit. This picture though is by far my favorite.

Great photos. Could you show a closeup of the Braine Gear? I've sailed most of my life, but never have done model yachts.

Josh: Thank you for your very kind words, I appreciate them very much!


BR: Thanks! Please pardon the digression, Mods, but here are a few pics of the boat topside. These are the only images, taken at the antique shop, that I have uploaded thus far. I can take some additional detailed shots and PM them to you when I get home tonight.
