DEATH OF A LUCKY HAT

It's Mono Monday and the theme is ORDER.

I decided to do the opposite......DISORDER!  Entropy!  This is what happens when constant input of energy and care into anything leads to an increase of disorder....entropy.  Think of rooms in your house without constant input of cleaning energy.

This is my "lucky" fishing hat. I've worn it for over 30 years out on the sun, rain, tornadoes, wind storms, hail, lightning and all sorts meteorological insults.  I've taken very special care of this hat.  It's caught thousands of fish...you can see it on my head in my avatar.  And it's been with me at the track EVERY DAY for decades so it's lucky in the photo department as well.  That photo was taken a long time ago...but it's my lucky hat so I keep using it.

But now the whole chapeau has gone the way of the dinosaur.  I decided to spare you other shots of this hat showing the total degree of its decline.  I'm having trouble finding an adequate replacement but it's so well ventilated now I'm having trouble keeping it on my head so it has to be replaced.    Wish me luck.

BEST IN LARGE.   On second thought, not even LARGE will help this shot.
