What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

[Who?]

Sunbody today. Struggling a little to keep it on as the winds get up ahead of the approaching super typhoon.

Sunrise in eastern Japan as I type this.

I hope you and all those dear to you are safe.

Stetson Playboy to watch Miami Dolphins come back from 21 points down in the 4th quarter to beat Baltimore Ravens. What a game!

Stay safe in that typhoon, Gary.

Thanks, guys.
It’s heading fairly well North of where I am, but still expecting gale force winds this afternoon and right through tomorrow.
On a lighter note…I was hoping that you, Steve, as one of the more prominent British loungers, might have picked up on the “moronic orbit” comment I made the other day.

You may be right. My nephew (early 20s) couldn’t find anything to laugh about in the Two Ronnies’ Four Candles/Fork Handles skit. Not even a slight chuckle.
I guess that to him, I’m the strange hat-wearing uncle who travels in some moronic orbit.

It’s from another Two Ronnie’s skit, “Name Droppers”

I love the Miami themed hats you've been showing! I've been thinking about doing something similar to one or two of mine. The colors are black and gold (or yellow) for my alma mater App State.

Cap day!

I went for a few mile hike this morning wearing my Beaver Brand 5X. I have reshaped the brim, it's a little more to my taste.

It was a modern blue hat kind of morning.

A walkabout in a VS Executive (inspired by the Adam Pacesetter (VS Winchester bluemist beaver felt)).

Home and some beach raking and bird feeder filling in a Gannon Playboy (inspired by the Stetson hat (VS Winchester bluemist beaver felt)).

Coffee and some deck time in a Gannon Wanderer (inspired by Stetson of said name (Winchester blue beaver felt)).

Cheers, Eric -

Is it really bigger on the inside than it is on the outside?

Happy Talk Like a Pirate Day!

I have no idea what this means, perhaps the model name? IDK.

Thank you Gary. This one came out of an idea I was messing around with a couple years back to make easily interchangeable hat band ribbons. Some ribbon I found at either Walmart or Hobby Lobby. It is held on with a couple tiny magnets.

Wow, the Tardis actually looks small on the inside. LOL that looks like a lot of fun!

Thanks for the idea - I would have never thought of using magnets. Nice!

Thanks for the idea - I would have never thought of using magnets. Nice!

I started out with Velcro. Which worked well.. but the stuff I used had way to much “grab” for my liking. Stumbled onto the magnet idea.. might have been a suggestion from a friend. They could certainly be sewn in or glued to the ribbon. But the ones I’m using are very compact and powerful. so I just use them like A clip with one on the outside of the bow and one inside. Looks like a tiny hat pin... sort of.
