    A couple of decades between the pictures and no worse for wear... that Patagonia vest has held up well. Berets are great when you've got some difficult colors to go with.

    Thank you... and yes, shpatzir is Yiddish for a stroll. My mom used to say "the dog needs a shpatzir... get your shoes on!"
