The Cap, Chapeau, Or Hat Or Bonnet,

Put photos here of you wearing a cap, chapeau, hat or bonnet that is very special to you, an old, comfortable hat to keep you out of the sun or rain, an elegant bonnet such that you would wear to a coronation or the Kentucky Derby, a national cap or hat of some kind, something you would find at a millinery or haberdashery shop, most especially something with a story to tell.

Capybaras are the world's largest rodents and live in South America. They live a semi-aquatic lifestyle and their leather is used to produce particularly water-repellant, stylish broad-brimmed hats. I picked this up on a tour with the Anchorage Concert Chorus in Argentina. For more information about capybaras see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capybara
