Vertigo gone. A new day! Off to see my DC (chiropractor) and then to work. I'll wear the 60's Charles Knox 40 to see Doc David then the Outback Trading Co River Guide, a waxed cotton rain hat. I plan to put my fedora in the trunk and hang the hat in the employee locker room when I get to...
A very special tribute, Matt. Incredible hat, and the jacket: wow, what a wonderful thing to have; made by Dad. Perfect.
Excellent custom work. The hat looks fantastic.

I posed for pics and soon I am going to attempt...
Not much, yet. Everyone is still waiting to see around the store. Only positive changes so far.
