My daddy wore a dress hat every Sunday and he wore the old dress hat the 
rest of the week.  He had felt hats for winter and straw for Summer.

I hate wearing a hat.   The only time I wear one is when I have to wear a 
hard hat and now that I'm nearly bald on top, I wear a straw hat (the panama 
type)
if I have to be out in the sun for more than an hour or so at the time, 
running the tractor or whatever.  That is only to keep my head from getting 
sun burned.

It brings back the original significance to the Mark Twain quote, Charlie --  
Pa's down in the pig pen.  He's the one with the hat!

Humm.  Not a hard hat or a pair of safety glasses to be seen!

If you have a fast internet connection and twenty minutes to watch this
video, it's fascinating.

A documentary film made in 1935, showing the processes of steam
locomotive building, including casting, forging, machining, and assembly.
