I'm on vacation, and so is my new MandolinCafe hat. I'm going to try to post a pic when I have internet access on my trip, so you get to guess where the hat is. First one is pretty easy, though.

Ted, your hat's on top of your head. What do I win?

Too easy. I thought it was photoshopped at first, but a little detective work and - viola! (not mandola!) [yes, I know it's voila]. Your hat was, as the two guys above me said, in Las Vegas for that one.

Ted, you need to lighten up a bit on your vacation man! That is a "work" face you have there!

Martin - TOO funny! We all know it's a parking meter - he's OUTSIDE!
If he were inside, his scowl would be deeper - unless of course the slot machine was spitting out $6000 in quarters!
I ordered a hat this week and PayPal has been dinged, so I'm anticipating its arrival here shortly! I'll need it to keep my head (complete with thinning hair) warm as it's 30 degrees and snowing here again....![]()

Ted's out of reach now but has been mailing me new locations where he's taking his family. Looks a little warm where he is right now.
Now it starts.

That camel would look better with a Mandolin Cafe' hat on as well....![]()

I'm guessing he's still in Las Vegas taking the new camel ride at the Dunes Hotel!
I have it on good authority (thanks, Facebook) that Ted is actually on a 7-day cruise off the coast of Western Mexico with his wife and daughter. I'm guessing his hat is with him. What do I win?
Do they have camels in Mexico?

Mike, Last time I was down there they had camels...and marlboroughs, and winstons as well as most American name brand smokes.
BTW, my 1st Cafe hat arrived yesterday...I'd put up a photo but I don't have internet access right now...well not at home anyway...ShHHH! I'm at work right now
These hats are REALLY nice!
Fred I was in Las Vegas the night they blew up the Dunes...They rigged it up so it appeared like the pirate ship at Treasure Island gave her a broadside which was cool...man that was a while ago.I'm guessing he's still in Las Vegas taking the new camel ride at the Dunes Hotel!

We had the annual St. Patricks Day parade today in downtown Raleigh.
The Weather was great and our band had a fun time in the parade being pulled behind a 1951 John Deer tractor. The car is part of the Amran Temple Hillbilly crew.
Oops, Ted I did not mean to divert your post. I should have started a new one, something like ' post a picture of yourself with your new hat'. sorry.
Look who I spotted today.
I got an update from Ted. His traveling companions are a little stiff.

Man Ted, you sure do get around...Say, while you're in China, can you pick me up an Eastman 804?...I'm good for it.He's on a 12 countries in 7 days tour.
BTW Charles, is that a JD Model A your band is hiding?
