A WELL HATTED EVENING…
This
weekend I visited one of the local legends for men’s hats, Andrea’s Fine Hats
located at 7825 Eastern Avenue Silver Spring Maryland 20920. Every time I visit I walk away with another
wonderful hat to add to my collection but there is something else I take away
with me as I bid the ladies farewell, a sense of family and community. Whilst shopping at Andrea’s we actually take
time to talk. As customers come in and before
they depart all contribute their two-cents in the pleasant conversation. There is a small bench right at the door where
the ladies sit offering expert opinions and critique as I try each hat on. I know they will give me an honest opinion
and in between our conversations remind me of a time when things were much more
genteel…
I
strongly recommend a visit to Andrea's Fine Hats and here is the store number,
please call to get the hours and try to get there early enough to take your
time and have some old fashioned conversation.
The store number is 301-565-5009 and the web-address is: http://www.finehats.com/
. As Andrea herself says, drop on by and
get some “Hattitude”!
