Well we made it through the long weekend. Thought Id continue with the curled brims again today. Today its an inexpensive Stetson Montes wool western that I specifically got on the cheap to learn how to do brim curls. It a shorter crown and smaller curl than yesterdays Resistol. I do actually have another Resistol project hat inbound that will also get some curl action.... figured I needed one in a lighter color lol

Today, a gray Puerto Fino Garda 300, made in Colombia. A 3 1/8 inch brim on this guy, makes it one of the widest I own.

Is your weather similar to Melbourne with arctic air and desert air battling it out from week to week? You are obviously further from the desert - does it effect Taz much?
Hi @The Lost Cowboy

Tassie be an island tends to have a moderate climate with temps in the 5-20 most days. Fortunately we miss the asphalt melting summer days with high pollen counts you get in Melbourne.

But when the air currents change to come from Antarctica welcome to the freezer.

We also tend to have rather unique climate zones. Launceston is where my main home is inland and up at 230 metres lot colder than Hobart where I work sometimes but Hobart lot wetter.

Generally on the coastal areas where most of us live snow is rare but heavy frosts are common. Up in the highlands snow is very common.

As they say in Tassie “if you do not like the weather wait five minutes”.

Summer in Melbourne can be brutal. One day I'll get to Tasmania - I want to go to to MONA and see the MOFO!

Ha.. that’s what I’ve always said about South Florida. “Welcome to Florida. If you don’t like the weather…. Wait a minute.”

we sometimes can have sunshine in the front of the house and a storm in the backyard. LOL
