A friend of ours crossed something off her bucket list recently…. and while I was happy she was fulfilling a lifelong dream, I did make one small request.
.

.
Take pictures of the hats!
.

.
Because when you go to the Kentucky Derby? There are lots of fabulous hats. Sadly my friend had a few too many mint juleps and only shared three hat photos. (Bad friend. Bad!)
.

.
But at least the last one was a doozy.

Pardon me while I snicker and include an anti-Brady Derby pic as well.

Believe it or not. My dad’s name is Tom Brady. And his melon would have looked even funnier.

Yep, those are some hats. The kind of hats that make me wonder if I’d really ever want to go to the Derby. How could you not laugh when you saw them… especially after a few juleps?

I think they’re probably disappointed if their fascinators don’t fascinate…

I’ve been to Churchill Downs. I took 57 archery members to the Nationals (twice) in Louisville. I admired the place with my ball hat on~I doubt that would work attending the derby!

I absolutely loved the last one. I should show up to work one day wearing something like that. Yo know, just to see who’d be the first to bring it to my attention. Loved that Tom Brady picture, and yes he looks like he’s going to Toontown….🤣😝.

I think you could totally rock that hat. Fitting into your car to drive to work? Probably not…

You wouldn’t believe it but I’m a hat guy. Fedoras in the winter, my Mexican cowboy hat in the spring and summer…
