Summer Caps At Last

When we were in town for Sue's early fish n chip birthday lunch, Sue opined that I should check out the Irish & Scottish Shop for summer caps.

I have purchased a few heavier caps there in the past, but I've had a heckuva time finding suitable lightweight caps anywhere. My only summer hat is a Tilley with a brim — not a cap. It's fine; I like it, but one doesn't always want to wear a hat, and I don't do baseball-style caps. They aren't me.

As it turned out, the shop only had two summer weight caps, but I liked them both, so a long wait seems to be over. Except, now of course, I must wait for summer. It will take a few months, but I think I am set when it does get here.

Speaking of which, tomorrow shall be a momentous day as temperatures will finally rise above freezing and, for the most part, stay there. Of course, nighttime temperatures will continue to be below freezing, and that is good for the sap run.

Here's the reveal.

  1. I like the red one best. Makes me hear bagpipes inside my head.

  4. Like Joanne I like the black one. Somewhat similar to the one I bought in Ireland on a recent trip to that beautiful country.

  10. Should you get both since they are so difficult to find?
