Been working on hats all day! Got this sixties Royal Stetson Open Road-ish hat in the mail from @RMcamey, aka, Randy.
Thank you, Friend!!!!

He literally gave it to me so I could try my hand at making this hat look like a few of his and @Bama’s westerns.
I think I got ‘em! What do y’all think?
You know what they say about imitation being the best form of flattery.
I’ve been looking for a hat that would work as a foundation to copy “the look” and Randy helped me out.
It will always remain my favorite hat.
It was my size(1/4), but I still had to stretch it to my egg shaped head and it took me several hours at the steam pot, but I finally got ‘er the way I want ‘er. She’s a beaut!
Randy is a true gentleman’s gentleman.
I had to re-stretch a few other hats as well.
It takes a few times in the stretcher to get a hat to hold the size you want and you don’t want to be doing it all at one time anyway.
Also bought a forties, wide brim, dove gray Mallory From eBay yesterday. Can’t wait for it to get here! Most I’ve ever spent in a hat!
I told Randy if it wasn’t for the hat he gave me, I wouldn’t have been able to spend the money on this one, so he essentially provided me with two hats!
Well, he didn’t ask, or expect it, but I will try to return him a few favors in the future.
Love the Lounge and the guys who occupy it!

Thanks, Hagwood and Hector and Blare for the positive comments, and the likes from others. A nice round number of thirty hats now, is a perfect stopping place for me.
For a long while all my posts will be reruns of hats y’all done seen. Guess I will have to get creative with the backgrounds and comment to keep it interesting. [emoji16][emoji849]
Oh! Wait! I forgot. Still have two more coming from the Bay that I get to showcase for the FL when they arrive. Then...it’s...all...over.
Do y’all bleeve any of that?

Sounds like a good time to do some hat maintenance [emoji1]

Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk
That would have been the plan, if it didn't hurt so much to move.

It pains me to see such a beautiful hat and it doesn't belong to me!
I think you have about 15 that make me feel that way. Ha ha.

A gorgeous Borsalino Homburg Michael, love the liner, and yet another wonderful outfit. Hope you're feeling better.

Thanks Steve. Wasn't feeling better yesterday, but today I am.

Sunshine and blue sky today after far too many grey days, so I managed to take a photo of me outside.

Lovely felt on that one, Steve. Always nice when a little sunshine shows up.

Any number that can be divided by thirty is good.
