(I'm still trying to find out if my local Caruso MTM pusher can arrange for me to use my own suiting, like I believe you did with your (Fox?) flannel suit.)

Some great fits from over the weekend - I won't comment on them all but standouts for me were from: AlwaysDressed, KtownGreg, Chorse, Neo and Niidawg.

I decided you probably didn't want to see me in my dressed for DIY clothes

Amazing, how they keep everything so polished and perfect so it doesn't look old. never seen so much polished marble in my life.
Foxx it's great to see pics of the Greenbrier, it's one of my favorite places to relax, dine, and have a bit of fun. The last time I was there we stumbled upon a bear while on a hike.

It was a horrifying moment, especially since I had my 20# dog with me. It ended hiking for me, but gave me a good excuse to relax and eat the rest of the time I was there.

Although I'm more like 7-8 hours drive away, I tend to make an annual visit to either the Greenbrier or Homestead, both are stunning. This year it'll be the Homestead.

No, it's one of my early MTM jackets (no Caruso).

Actually, my MTM supplier ordered the fabric at Fox and had it send to Caruso.

Don't tell me you didn't wear a bow tie.

I see, thank you. I'm waiting for an answer on whether they'll allow me to order my own suiting and have it shipped to Caruso.
