I HATE stories with sad endings! :mad: And I hate it when hats meet sad ends. ☹ Did you catch any fish? If you did, don’t tell me. If you didn’t, I want to hear about that. In detail.

What did the hat look like? I miss it already.

It seems that gloves with masks are all the rage now. Doesn’t matter what you pair them with, jeans, shorts, whatever. Fashion’s gone mad, I tell you.

He did wear a hat to the inauguration. I watched it on TV at the time. It was a top hat. But he stopped wearing hats as a matter of course.

And by all means, let those two stay on the lawn. 😃
