One of your BEST nights out, D. What an ensemble, topped off top shelf!! Even your foundation (shoes) is from the top shelf! Probably my all-time favorite shoe style, right there.

I remember my pediatrician wearing that style and always liked it because of the nice, clean look. Eventually good ol' Mom got me a pair of Johnson & Murphy Aristocrafts in mid-brown while in college, 1977. $75 then... Sure I still have and wear them! Maybe even today, for Mom's 90th! Thanks for the reminder!!!

Who made yours; they're VERY nice?!

Yesterday had me donning another of my conversions. Resistol Westerner. This is another hat that was gifted to me from Anthony, (Moon). I wasn't committed to the black two ply thin ribbon, though. But, I think I'll use it and sew it on the hat sometime this week. Still not sure if I can pull off the black color. It's my least favorite of colors for a hat. Another drawback for the color is all the dust and lint it shows. Pictures aren't too good. I tried to get a few different angles of the hat...

Some way down South Civil War era Dixie music. Performed by the 2nd South Carolina String Band in this 150th anniversary of the Battle of Gettysburg reenactment. Check out the straw hats the guys in the band are wearing. Wonder if Sunbody has those? I want to get the straw Top Hat. I can wear it while I'm mowing my lawn...


And now for the Union side. My 3X Great Grandfather served under General Sherman in the Civil War. He was a Corporal in the artillery division from Kentucky. My wife's family, the Hatfields, fought for the South.

Terry, I think it looks great, and great on you. Fear not the Black Hat, my friend.

And I'm with you on the straw topper. I want one now, too.


Sent directly from my mind to yours.
