This hat of mine rests on the porch, waiting out our inclement weather. You see, I like chapeaus, all kinds of hats, really. I don't think I've ever come across a derby I didn't like or at least try on. Baseball, top, straw, pork pie, cowboy, and others. Now, I know what you're thinking. No, I've never been in a stage production, but I'll take a chance on wearing any type of hat gear or disguise for that matter. This hat seen here I picked up in the Caribbean on last summer's cruise. I think, it's me. Yes, it's true. I've never really set foot on the stage in any drama production per se, unless you count my singing and silly vaudeville routines in our 'shows' in the garage on Stevens Avenue. At a nickel a head, we packed the place! But in many ways and on many days, I feel I'm giving a command performance in this play called Life. Hahaha! Yes, I've worn hats; I've worn wigs; I've worn beards. Heck, I'd even wear a dress, if the price was right. I have no shame!

Hat Delayed

No shame in living life to the fullest Birdman. It's one go-around per customer. So, I hope you wear those hats and disguises as often as you wish. We want encores!
ReplyDeleteHave a happy Saturday!
Shame. We have shame? Nope. None. I swore I would never wear a hat again if I got out of the US Army alive. And, I haven't.
ReplyDeleteMy husband won't wear a hat. My brothers always wear hats. Hats amuse me.
ReplyDeleteAh but would you wear a big red nose whilst wearing any old hat Birdman!!!
ReplyDeleteI love this post! I like hats they just don't like me. Well I haven't found one yet that looks right. This looks like a fun one.
ReplyDeleteIt will look good on your western trip. How far out west are you going to be? MB
ReplyDeleteYou could use a rain hat the last few days here!
ReplyDeleteA great attitude to have!
ReplyDeleteThis is true, folks.
ReplyDeleteMe, no chapeau hits my skull, not if I can help it.
(hair issues......)
If someone would tell me what a chapeau is, I'll go and see if I've got one. I like hats. They hide my face.
ReplyDeleteI have been getting into wide brimmed hats this summer, kind of on the orders of my dermatologist after he burned off some more sun damaged spots. A Tommy Bahama straw hat arrived just today, and the Tilley hat has become my every day hat.
ReplyDeleteRage On!
ReplyDeleteAloha from Waikiki :)

I have to admit that I have a collection of hats myself - mostly ball caps as souvenirs of places we visit. I've always wanted a stove top high hat although I have no idea where I could wear the thing. Maybe at Halloween.
