time to put my hats (think cards) on the table
in the summer it's mostly about caps to keep the sun off my balding head
i had forgotten this cap on a visit to my son but i just got it back a few days ago when i was there again. all the more reason to be happy.
i often wear this one here in norway but folks don't relate to it. but my family are all patriots fans and i make sure i have it with me when i visit back home in New England. i've had it for years and it's faded and showing signs of wear but that's ok with me.
good thing i have a couple of caps for doing carpentry or painting and such.
but living by the sea i need one with a maritime look. this Greek captain's hat is just the thing.
but the summer is short this far north and the autumn is windy so i need ear flaps. i wear this irish one proudly as it always reminds me of my grandfather who was born there.
over the years i have acquired a few feathers in my cap
i'm sure most people associate norway with cold weather and rightly so. warm hats are essential
and for winter sports a hand knit woolen cap with a traditional design is the go-to item
when the thermometer approaches -20 and the wind is fresh you need serious headgear such as this classic Finnish design.
now that the show is over it's time to pass the hat.
