Thanks, z! :yo:
Thanks, Dan, and it is great to see you posting again!
Really appreciate your kind words, Jeff? Almost did not recognize you for a split second! :eeek: I love your Dobbs Americana, a fine, fine looking lid!
Beautiful hat and photo! :eusa_clap
Thank you, my...
A few photos from Friday in Chicago:
Waiting to cross Lakeshore Drive. Optimo Silverbelly.
DuSable Harbor.
View of Chicago from the campus of Northwestern University in Evanston. Alan's lovely daughter Sophie gave us an extensive,personal tour of campus. Thank you, Sophie!
lol Not quite yet, my friend! Will see Tiffani and Graham again tomorrow Southside...
Awful kind of you, Ray, thank you!
Thanks, Manfred! Indeed, Lydia snapped the first two photos, but Ryan took the picture in the alley. They are both pretty handy with camera and lens, and I am most...
Beautiful hats this Friday morning worn with panache by all, Gentlemen! :yo:
We are in Chicago during Ryan's Spring Break. A few snaps from Thursday:
Doffing my hat in the sanctuary of the Holy Name Cathedral. 1930's Dobbs Heather, one of my favorite lids.
Visiting with...
I know of what you plan as well, Ale! :heh: shhhhhhhh
Wow, I had to scroll back several pages and play some catch up to see your new coiffure. Not only does it look marvelous, you have just expanded your vintage lid size range. Oh, and the Borsalino looks mighty fine on you as well!
Thank you for sharing your stellar photos from a journey far, far afield, Blackthorn! You keep outdoing yourself with your travelogues. I wonder where your next report will be filed from, perhaps that fifth largest continent at the bottom of the planet?
Ale: Thanks for your most generous remarks! I would also add to your statement: "...and Lydia's generosity in approving of its purchase"! lol
John: I appreciate your kind words! These earlier St. Regis Homburgs are really quite extraordinary, but sadly very difficult to come by...
A full slate of activities this past weekend just prior to leaving town during Ryan's Spring Break. The weather, forecast to be quite warm and sunny for the weekend, turned out to be anything but, on Saturday.
Orchestra Hall in Minneapolis, Saturday evening for the Minnesota Orchestra's...
Very nice photo, Ray. The Cumulonimbus formation towering over Tampa certainly adds drama, as does the dappled sunlight on the iconic Bayshore Boulevard balustrade. :eusa_clap
Glad you shared it with us!
It would still make you look like a little child wearing daddy's lid, I'm afraid. Best to pass the hat along to a proper melon head, methinks. :yo:
Congrats on a most distinctive and beautiful hat, Josh! :eusa_clap
Certainly, Brando! I will let you know when we will be at the downtown shop just as soon as I have worked out our final schedule. The Fine Arts Building is a favorite hangout of ours...
Salty: Great looking Milan.
Thanks for your kind words, Jeff. We will be down in Chicago next week during Ryan's Spring Break and will be stopping by Graham's shop(s). I will be sure to take some photos of his Montecristi beauties to further tempt you. lol
The Rehfus is in great hands, or rather, atop a great noggin...
Manfred: Thank you, my friend! Sauerkraut was unbelievable. Best we have had anywhere. Lydia has been trying to wrangle the recipe for years, but alas, it is a closely guarded secret recipe from Germany, and we only have this one opportunity every year to enjoy it. They serve over 300lbs...
