Nice Birdie, Jim.
Nice Birdie, Jim.
Have a safe trip, Mike. The gorge drive can be dicey in winter. Great selection of hats for the trip and memorial celebration for Grandpa Merlin.Beginning the trek to Wenatchee WA this morning to attend a memorial service for Patty's Grandpa, Jim Merlin. He passed on December 26th at the age of 102. It will be a true celebration of his life. Snow in Portland and the Columbia Gorge, but should not be too bad. I'll honor Grandpa with my navy blue longhair custom from NW Hats in Eugene, and will take along a 1950s Knox Premier Stratoliner clone (the Knox-o-Liner!) fedora for daily wear around town. I'll try to post some snow pictures, it will be bitterly cold in northern Washington.

You might want to rethink that, pilgrim.Heavy rains today, so didn’t want to wear anything too nice. The Pilgrim kept my head dry....

That is a great hat, Steve. Fantastic contrast between the velvety felt and the ribbon/binding.Wegener "Seal" possible mid to later 1950s and a new arrival.
