I love seeing Yankee magazine (my father used to dine with Jud Hale) and I am trying to resist your "first settlers" reference (they were all my husband's ancestors). I laughed out loud at your "tight high-water pants and sockless dress shoes" comment, and I am impressed you haven't fallen in since 2007.

This happened in New Canaan, CT, of all places!<br /><br /><i>If you think that the urban woodsman/lumberjerk look is permanent, you likely can't repair engines, can't load/shoot/clean a gun, and can't swing an axe.</i><br /><br />Haha!!

Maine Hunting Shoe, Carhartt felt-lined, fleece of any vintage, thinsulate gloves, Red Wings, heavy canvass: these were practically a uniform for me for about a decade and whenever I return to the place where that was true I find they remain current among all ages. Hence, perhaps, the quest for an authentic personal style that is immune to fashion without being insensible to it.JKGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13569861165454532541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4119187433618815256.post-89041670001357511382011-10-14T14:37:32.636-04:002011-10-14T14:37:32.636-04:00What a beautiful setting!

My grandfather and uncles were golf pros and we always received Izod at discounted rates. I did not like sporting the croc then, but it was there and we had to wear it. :)JMWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11850088300591079931noreply@blogger.com
