    Fedoras afield

    That's absolutely beautiful, thank you! And life in the country is much more civilized, in many ways. ;)

    Fedoras afield

    You visit some beautiful places. Thanks for taking us along on your adventures by posting your photos! The redbud/serviceberry, mountain laurel, and rhododendron blooms are some of my favorite times to be in the woods. Here in the Virginia mountains, the older folks call rhododendron "laurel"...

    Fedoras afield

    Neat place, with great burgers! If I remember correctly they had dollar bills stuck all over the ceiling (for some reason I don't remember now). We stayed a couple nights just across the street in Hotel Charlotte, another neat place if you like old buildings and history.

    Western, anyone?

    I like most western hats, but I'm partial to the more moderate-sized ones. That one looks good to me! I'm always amazed to see the hats you start out with, and then what they turn out to be when you're finished with them. Very nice work, as always!

    Clean Jokes

    The sad part is, most tailgaters won't recognize it anyway, so the joke is wasted.

    Wolfbrae Custom Hatters

    Nice work on bringing those back to life - they look great! Thanks for sharing these. I wish someone still made a nice mid-brown felt, like the one in the foreground.

    M.C. Gannon Hat Company

    I like taller crowns too, in general, but I think that crown height and deep bash on the top suit you and the hat both very well. That is a sharp hat that looks good on you!

    Show us your photography

    Yes, we made it to Redwood National Park! Almost my entire life I had wanted to see "The Big Trees", but living almost completely across the country, it took a while to accomplish. Absolutely beautiful, and one of those places you definitely have to see for yourself. Photos in no way capture the...

    Show us your photography

    Beautiful part of the country, thanks for posting! A few years ago my wife and I got to visit California, drive some of the coast, some of the country you have pictured here, and make a short visit to Yosemite. The main goals were to show her the coast and some of the old fire camps I'd been...

    Classic Compass

    The Silva Ranger, also known as the Type 15, was the classic forestry compass for years. Introduced about 1950, I think, so I don't know id it's period-correct for you. The older ones had aluminum azimuth rings; the newer ones have black plastic rings. These can be fantastically accurate and...

    The Non Shorpy Web All Stars.

    A lot of things had changed by the end of that year. I doubt "Lazy Fishing" was on anyone's mind as 1942 approached. Sometimes we don't know how good we've got it, until it's too late. Thanks for the post!

    Ask a question, get an answer

    Perhaps this? Mentions the "mirror myth" and "shiny silver dollars"? I only vaguely remember this show - because of my age I would have had to have seen it in reruns at some point. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0052474/reviews

    New Scammer alert: Jerseyfresh1 / Michael Triolo

    Glad it worked out in your favor! For those pushing the use of Paypal F&F because it "protects the seller", what do you expect will happen when the same scammer (or his brother) posts something for sale here on the Lounge and demands Paypal F&F, and upon receipt of funds all the buyer receives...

    The Non Shorpy Web All Stars.

    Some of the things we build today amaze me. Even more amazing are the things built in the 1800s and early 1900s with the equipment and tools they had back then!

    How about that vintage western look

    Yes, I'm counting down the time until I can have a beard again! Less than a year now...

    How about that vintage western look

    Nice choices! I never wear T-shirts as an outer shirt, always a Henley unless I'm wearing a full button-up shirt - really like them as an alternative to a T-shirt.

    Whites Boots problem

    Yes, White's warranty is one year, so I would contact White's directly if the retailer is stalling on you. Photos would help - I assume this is a celastic toe (basically a resin=impregnated layer put in to hold the toe shape, not as a safety toe)? These will get softer as they take a beating...
