The Hat

With my advancing maturity, my dome with its folicular challenges needs protection from the tropical sun - hence "the hat". Solid and leather, it provides adequate protection.

However, my wife, born in Texas, has Taixsus views on hats (and most other things). When she received the accompanying photo, she commented "Yo'all (accepted as singular especially as a term of endearment) hads better find the little boy you stole that hat from and give it back immediately."

Half a world apart, I am safe in wearing it. When I relocate to Utah to be with my Christie, the hat may experience a different fate.
