    Work and the dress down code

    Strange. I try to dress for whatever situation awaits me for the day at hand. If that means a suit and tie then that's what I'll wear. If the day calls for boots, shorts and a tee shirt then that is what I'll wear. Funny thing is I was never told I was under dressed for an occasion. I have been...

    New Ladies and Gents Step Forward

    Hello Everyone! How's everyone at the Lounge today? I really can't say much about what I do and who I represent. About all I can say is we're a vendor and we have a museum. I'm waiting to hear back from MK about a banner ad and a link exchange before I say more. Me thinks me might be breaking...

    The Adventurer's Gear Thread

    Great thread..... I really have enjoyed reading through this thread. It's rich in history, great gear, so on. I'm an avid hunter and fisher and have an entire room full of gear just for hunting and fishing. As far as what my adventure pack would be that would depend entirely on where and what I...

    Cowboy Boots

    I have a pair of Justin boar hide boots that have been around for five motorcycles, 2 horses and all kinds of stompin' around. They still look pretty good after all these years. So as far as a durable long lasting hide is concerned you can add boar to the list.

    Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest

    I live North of Columbia so I would say maybe 140 miles AlanC. By any chance do your travels bring you out this way? If so, perhaps we could meet for lunch sometime. OK so I now own a nice brown vintage fur felt bowler made in my old stomping grounds. Perfect. The Frolicking Bunny Bowler will...

    Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest

    An old Hobb's derby I just won this one. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=110253634794 I'm not well versed on vintage hats by any means, however I do like bowlers very much. Did I do good?

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    Today I wore my two day old Stetson Open Road while fishing...... in a steady rain. I don't think I'll do that again any time soon. The good news is it didn't bleed color and I suppose if I wanted to mess with the shape of the hat it would be very easy to do!
