Great additions to your great hat collection, Chris!
Off topic: you have a lot of clover in your grass. Is that on purpose? I know they harvest micro clover sod now. Clover will supposedly grow in areas that are tough to grow grass. I tried in in my yard, but it didn’t “take.” I work at a golf course and we have areas where the clover is THICK!
