Hawaiian shirts and fedoras

[dh66]

It's unusually warm here today Richard. Weatherman says it'll be much colder by Monday. Not much chance of a white Christmas though (thankfully)

Holiday cheers indeed Dale!

Happy New Years Guys! Took a while to get back home and back to the computer. But better late than never. Spent some time in the warmer climate for Christmas this year and got to break out the Hawaiians with my Travel Akubra. Had to think long and hard about which hat to bring for travel. Don't like packing hats away, I bring them on the plane and put them under the seat. So I needed to bring a hat that could take a bruising without getting too bent out of shape. Akubra Snowy River is a mean simple hat and the fawn color tends to go with most things. I own better hats, but it's about finding the right balance between hats you really like and hats you wouldn't be too upset over losing. I once had a hat blow right off my head into a big river while traveling through Vienna, and that was all she wrote.

Mighty surprised to see a post here in the midst of the polar vortex. Like the xmas motif on the white shirt Lando. Must be nice to travel to warmer climes this time of year too. A pirate manatee eh?

Looking good Lando!
I like the beard trim also!

Good way to spend the holidays Lando. I'm guessing Florida because of the manatee. The little one sure looks happy. Great shirts and tavelling hat.

I prefer the cold. I've learned to enjoy the heat, but I'll take a polar vortex any day over too much heat and humidity. It's fun to break out the Hawaiians but I'm just not built for high temperatures.

Lando - great shots - the festive shirt is great. Give me cold over hot humidity any time too (although I'm happy if you don't send the polar vortex this way ).

We've had three straight days below freezing. Night before last was 7°f (-14c). I'm not built for that. I'd take triple digits over single any day.

Looking warm and cool at the same time.

I'm looking forward to wearing an Aloha next week in Florida.

Well that's certainly warmer than I would have expected from the news coverage I've seen. Then again, "down south" covers a lot of territory. Glad your comfortable where your at Dale.

My new shirts are pretty tame by Aloha standards but that's the direction my tastes have drifted. My cameras in the shop but when it's done I'll post some pixs.

 

[dh66]

You're spot on Mike. We've had some bad winter weather down here, freakishly unusual snow and ice, people died....I spent a few nights stranded at work week before last, then it hit hard again last week. I was stuck at home this time fortunately, with beer in the 'fridge.
