No they never really got as picky with the girls-but they didn't consider a cowboy hat a bonnet either--but when in people buildings I just did anyway, especially at cattle conferences and meetings, when you would probably be around both types,LOL and usually tried to leave mine at home. Just made everything easier if I wasn't worried about what to do with it.
NO when women met people they were allowed to keep their hats on, anytime except church and the national anthem.

I am looking forward for some kissin’ and cuddlin’ for Ennis and Ellery. With everything going on lately, they sure can use some. Yeehaw for the next chapter tomorrow!

yes, she did. Fortunately for all of us, Jenny was not around to guess what Edna was going to find in the bedroom when she went to serve Ennis his lunch! She is 2 for 2 on figuring out my plot... her first correct plot guess was knowing who ended up in the ditch: Jim Allen.

I agree David but I don't think Ennis is English enough to think of response like that off the top of his head as it were!
