However, I'll never forget the first time (and probably the only time) a cowboy tipped his hat when passing by me - it was on the wooden sidewalks of Jackson Hole, WY! It sure put a smile on my face as I continued on my way.

I seldom see a guy actually remove his hat when entering a house or building. They even leave their hats on at the dinner table--a crass and impolite thing if ever there was one.<br />I found the different creases for hats fascinating. I didn't know there were actual patterns for that. Shows you what I know--next to nothing.<br />Great blog, Cheri. I really enjoyed it and got an education while I was at it. Sarah J.

Also, I know my topics have also been used by others here on SOTW. For example, The Run Away Scrape--a writer can go at this from different directions, and concentrate on one particular thing in that big event. In other word, these historical topics never have just one point or side. <br />I'm glad you included the special hat creases. I studied that when I was researching, but I already had to much I didn't include it. See? That's the way research goes.<br />The one topic I shy away from is anything about the Colt revolver. Ashley Kath-Bilsky is the epitome of an expert on that topic, and after a few years, it still gets comments when someone finds her post on Google. I could add nothing to her wonderful research.<br />So, thanks for more on the cowboy hat.<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16272417114895975742noreply@blogger.com
