My New Hat

This is a new hat I just bought today!

Ok I know it's not the most fashionable one, but sometimes there is more important things.... like keeping a sunburn off your face and neck, and keeping away those darn malaria carrying bugs...

I bought this neat bug netting that goes over the hat... it's cool because it has straps that go under the arms to keep the netting flush so they can't fly up and inside. The rim of the hat helps to keep the netting away from the face.

Of course I've been spraying the hat itself with bug spray to fortify it with anti-buggy goodness.

Another neat thing about the hat is the fact is has a zipper/compartment inside the top of it. It's a neat place to stash some goodies/money.

Is that a Tilley? Excellent choice, worth every penny.

It is :) I like them... though it's been awhile since I've owned one... I lost my last one in Costa Rica somewhere!
