Now part of the campus of Stetson University College of Law, this cloister is in full Spanish Mission style.
I think that my friends will be eternally amused by the fact that none of their hats fit me...... at all. Not even close as you can see.

This is not the story of one of those $700.00 Stetson Pure Open Roads. I’m not wealthy and can’t afford one of those.
I assure you. If I spent over $700.00 on a hat, I’d either loose it, or someone would steal it from me at a bar.
This, my fourth Open Road, is a modest $280.00 Open Road Royal Deluxe. It mocks me in a scornful, or sometimes contemptuous way. You see, I live in Central Texas and it’s so darn hot, I can only wear it maybe three weeks out of the year. I have a high body temperature and I can sweat out a straw or hemp Open Road when it’s close to freezing outside. When one sweats (like a woman of easy virtue in church), a felt hat gets salt stains and smells. I just spray my straw Open Roads with Febreze to remove the smell.
Even now, where I keep the temperature in my home 72 degrees (22 C), my head was sweating when I put it on after taking this photograph.
So… I’m reduced to wearing one of my 4 or 5 other Open Roads when I venture out into the Central Texas sun.
Although I can’t really wear this particular Open Road often, it knows how to pick the oldies stations on the 1940s AM radio. And, it knows how to figure out which vacuum tubes to order on Amazon when they burn out.
Every Open Road has its own musical key the one in this photo plays in Concert C.
Open Road says, “You can go to Hell. I’ll stay in Texas!”
