Finally back home and able to submit a pic for the day. Back to the Churchill today.

Gotta go tackle the millions of leaves in the yard, so I might make it a two hat day.

I'll westernize later today -- but for now, yard work whilst honoring my heritage: traditional Filipino headwrap from Manila.

Too cold for the matching loin cloth today ;)
Very cool. When you have the chance, would you post a shot of the wrap off of your head and spread out? It'd be nice to better see the pattern on the fabric.

Take it easy.

I'm back in the saddle again here for a couple of days. Shoulder surgery scheduled for Monday may continue to inhibit my participation for a bit, but not for long (I hope)!!

I'm wearing my surprise bonus Cavanagh-via-Levine. A couple of years ago I bought this "Levine" hat in a Levine box for a friend whose last name is Levine. Imagine my surprise and delight when it arrived, finding it to be not only a Cavanagh felt, but in my near-impossible-to-find size!! My pal Levine is still waiting for a hat.

What a great find. It looks very nice. All the best on your hospital encounter. I'm looking at the same thing in a short while. Appointment with Ortho guy on Tuesday.

I'm in late today. Sun and cold, now it is dark and more cold

Panizza Royal in grey

It is in the tradition of Panizza: a Italian classic for proportions and shape

The felt is fantastic. Malleable and finished with a very short hair

Going home walking I found this "rosa Veneziano" wall as perfect background for pictures

Behind this wall for many years there was a ancient boozer and most of the men wear hats like this drinking wine, feeling fine.....
Your hats always make me smile.

Reworked my unknown western brand again. I reshaped both the crown and the brim and I'm still deciding on a ribbon choice, may not have much of a choice though. I'm a bit shy on ribbon at the moment, and I'm tired of Silverbelly!

Going way back to Blind Willie Johnson for some Gospel Blues. From the remake of "The Lady Killers" with Tom Hanks....

Such a nice shape on that one. Thin ribbon in a contrasting grey?
