| Subject: Re: A hat for summer in Italy |

Hi, Paul. I would suggest a straw hat -- for a man *or* a woman. Make
sure there aren't spaces between the weaves. I found that out when I went
to an outdoor wedding a couple of years ago and was facing straight into
the sun. It shined brightly through the holes, and that was very
annoying. Now, I have a favorite straw hat with a wide brim and no
holes. It even has an inner band to make sure the hat fits snugly and
resists blowing off. This is very important to me, as I have a small head
and it's difficult to find a hat that fits. I found my hat at a golf
course pro shop, so you might want to try there.
I'll be in Italy in July, and I'm sure going to use my straw hat there! Diana San Diego, California |
