Let me be in that band wagon that explains my father's hats.
 
He had one for visiting and he had one for working.  About the only  time I 
seen my Dad without a hat was when I was standing on a  small stool in the 
bathroom and watching him shave!
   Some of you will know what I mean and some of you will be  totally 
lost.... But when was the last time you saw some one shave using a bar  of shaving 
soapcream, a cup, a bristle brush and a straight razor?
   For me this was a Sunday morning ritual. Daddy would shave,  and I would 
watch!!!! Then the kids... meaning me and my sibs would get ushered  off to 
church, while he..... WHILE he went to work on the farm!!  It wasn't  that he 
thought church was a bad thing, but only that he had livestock and work  that he 
needed to catch-up on.
 
   When EVER we went to visit I always knew that it was special  as he would 
take out his felt-tip (?) shaped hat.  If we were just going to  round up the 
cows... It was the billed one.
 
Good memories all!!!
