Where do you get your hats?  Here in Ketchikan the selection is 
dismal.  Do you buy any of them on the Internet.  If so, what are some of 
your favorite websites?

under $20 US  Perfectly serviceable.

A most amazing hat--

(URL looks pretty mangled after I copied it.  Might have to try a bit of 
cutting and pasting to resurrect the whole corpus.)

Bridger Mountain Man Coyote Fur Hat 
Relive the era of the mountain man with this authentic full-body coyote 
Mountain Man Hat. The hat drapes down in the back for added warmth and 
protection on your neck and shoulders. From reenactments of famed 
mountain man triumphs along the frontier, to displays and decor 
befitting America's pioneers and settlers, the classic styling and 
authentic coyote hide make this hat a conversation starter at any 
gathering. The soft, white-tanned interior holds up to years of wear. 
The professionally cleaned fur is exceptionally soft and holds its sheen 
extremely well. This is the perfect gift for rendezvous black-powder 
re-enactment enthusiasts. Made in Canada.

Who was Joseph Smith? The Book of Mormon tells us he was of the seed of 
Joseph that was sold into Egypt, and hence he was selected as Abraham was 
to fulfil a work upon the earth. God chose this young man. He was ignorant 
of letters as the world has it, but the most profoundly learned and 
intelligent man that I ever met in my life, and I have traveled hundreds of 
thousands of miles, been on different continents and mingled among all 
classes and creeds of people, yet I have never met a man so intelligent as 
he was. And where did he get his intelligence from? Not from books, not 
from the logic or science or philosophy of the day, but he obtained it 
through the revelation of God made known to him through the medium of the 
everlasting gospel.—John Taylor

 John W. Redelfs   [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I've done a lot of window shopping for hats on the web. There's lots of
sites, you can find them by searching for fedora hats on Google.  But I've
never bought any that way.  I just snoop around for them.  You don't find
them in big department stores or even in good men's wear stores.  There was
a western wear store in Lethbridge that had a little fedora sideline going
on, and I bought one or two there, but I noticed the other day that they are
out of business.  I bought a nice hat at Waterton Lakes National Park last
summer. I have a guy that runs an old time drygoods store in Cardston that
will order them for me and he's got me a couple. It's about time I put the
bee on him again I think.  I had to loan my dressiest fedora to an old guy
in the stake.  He had his hat stolen at church and he was so distressed
because of it that we started to fear for his life.  He's over ninety, so
his longevity is in question in any event.  He couldn't find a replacement
and he just went into a terrible funk, but the loaner hat has revived him,
and it's no problem for me, I've got others.
