Here is a pair of heavy duty country "trompers" by Frank Brothers. This model is called the
"Viscount" - what I believe is called a Norwegian or Split-toe style. Nice, pebble grain to the substantial leather. Double sole, nailed heel, with the inset steel cleat about 4 o'clock on the right...
A cool but fairly dry Christmas in Asheville with some overcast - a nice old Peterson pipe full of Balkan Mixture after dinner (on the porch - the Missus has very definite views on smoking in the house) - Harris Tweed suit & cap, 1940's hand knit sweater vest, 1930's Wembley foulard tie, dark...

Out for a walk with my daughter's dog Jackson (aka Stumpy) - something about wearing a tweed suit while walking a small dog makes me feel a little like Nick Charles....
Here is an old classic - sterling (back is marked "925" which indicateds sterling) cufflinks featuring the "Four Vices" - Wine, Women, Cards and Horses. A set of these from Ben Silver runs pretty high - around $150! I am offering these to fellow Loungers for one third of that price - $50...
Here is a trio of Fall garments I am offering to fellow Loungers before putting them up for auction. Being in the Army, I don't have as much latitude with my wardrobe as I did on the civilian side, and having recently moved, I have to knock down the size of my wardrobe a bit.
The first item...
Here is one with my daughter Mary Elizabeth, and her pup - she calls him Jackson (after Fort Jackson, where we got him) and I call him Stumpy (because of his short legs). M.E. is smiling really big 'cause she now has not only a dog, but a "Droid" phone - that is what one gets when one brings...
Off to the 'Bay -

Just in time for Autumn - as Keats, I believe, called it "Season of mists and mellow fruitfulness" - I have decided to slim down the collection a bit - I just have too many hats - got this one about 5 years ago, and I may have worn it 5 times. The problem is this, the hat is just too darn nice...
