My Dad's Baseball Hats in South America

Well, my brother Tim has begun to carry out his quest described here.

He left for South America with a bunch of my Dad's baseball caps. Now, he has started to give them away as gifts to people he meets along the way. The rule is for each hat he gives away, he takes a picture. Well, here we go!


A picture of a house to give some perspective.



A new UConn Fan. Go Huskies.



I think that is a Holy Cross hat. Not sure.



University of Virginia Cavaliers? Don't even get me started.


As far as this 'inter-cultural sharing of outer wear', Aimee and I experience it in our own front yard. In our little Cul Du Sac, there are quite a few Korean families. These are families are new to the United States and rent in our little hood of townhomes.

Yesterday evening, I was walking the dogs (like I always do) and came up on a Korean neighbor. He was a middle aged man in flip-flops, black socks, and a Tee Shirt that sported a Green Clover which read: "Kiss Me I'm Irish." No joke. If I had a camera on me, I would have asked to take his picture...Priceless! I am also not joking about taking pictures of neighbors. Just ask Aimee.

I think taking pictures of coat-hanger boy and risking pediophile status would have been your lesson regarding taking pictures of unsuspecting neighbors!
