National Hat Day by bkbinthecity

National Hat Day

So today is National Hat Day. I decided to go with this shot to accomplish a couple of things. First there were some of you that thought it would be nice to see a single larger picture from the winter festival on Saturday. I figured that was fair since both of my collages had pictures that were a little on the smaller side. So here are a couple of very tall cowgirls that made their way around the main area of the festival. This shot also provides one for todays hat photo. Since I do not own a cowboy hat I figured this would be a fun shot to post today
