    How do folks react to your hat wearing?

    Its been pretty common this year that I may wear multiple hats in the same day for different errands. Twice in the last month Ive had someone stop me in the grocery store or at lunch and ask " didnt I see you wearing a black/ brown/ silver hat earlier?" People DO notice hats

    Fun hat note... garbage truck came this morning and evidently someone was getting rid of old newspapers.
