That is NOT the preferred method to celebrate a birthday, Terry! And you're right, back/spine issues are NOT pleasant. I'm two spinal surgeries into my 70s, possibly looking at a third next year. Prayers and positive thoughts enroute for you, that you needn't go under the knife.Early this a.m. I celebrated my 70th with a trip to the ER. For this special birthday occasion I wore my rare, hard to find, Ram Truck ball cap. The conclusion was that I had some arthritis, narrowing of some vertebrae, and some deterioration of some discs. Painful stuff.
Wow! I'd love to see that festival one day, Nathan.
Great to hear from you again. Hope your physical training in Thailand does the trick for your health.
Take care, friend.
I agree buddy. Going to the ER wasn't what I had in mind for a birthday celebration, either. You've already had two back surgeries? Hopefully you don't have to have that third one. I'm hoping to avoid having the first one. Thank you for the prayers, buddy. I definitely need them.That is NOT the preferred method to celebrate a birthday, Terry!

Other things kept me busy all day yesterday, so a day late here are the hats of last week.

Ooh… I have one of those. Mine is an amazing hat and I love wearing it. I hope you enjoy yours as much or even more! Congrats on a great price, too!Last week I was on Ebay and saw this nice old Homberg for sale for cheap (35.00). The seller said it was a Stetson but only one pic of the hat from a side view so I asked for a view of the inside. I saw a nice old hat in a brand I had never heard of before so I offered 25.00 and bought myself a hat ! Still haven't found much information on this one so if any of y'all know what I got here please let me know. Thanks in advance.

Thank you buddy! I follow up with my doctor later today, so hopefully, I can get this all addressed with steroids and a few pain killers. Once I get this all addressed I'll go back to acting 45 again, maybe even 21!Terry, you do not in any way look 70 years old. No way. Now stop acting your age and start acting like the 45 year old you appear to be!
Kidding aside, I sure you hope your pain eases up and you can get full mobility back.
Nice Whippet.Middle of the week and lots of great hats shown ! It's Whippet Wednesday here at Rock Bottom. I really like how this one has a Brown grosgrain ribbon hatband rather than black.
Hope y'all have a good 'un !

I like 'em both, but my vote goes to the OR.
Man, I thought the Executive was stupendous, until I saw the Flagship!!! That hat is AMAAAAAAAZING, Eric!!Good morning. My morning soirre was taken under the brim of a VS Executive (gilled Bluesmoke Beaver felt).
Coffee and a car wash wearing a Stetson Flagship.
