PhotoHunt: hat

I'm very late posting this, although it's still Saturday.  As I'm not a hat-wearer, nor is anyone in this household, I hadn't thought I would have anything to contribute.  Then lateral thinking came into play, as I reviewed some pictures I took yesterday in the Corrèze département in France.  So here we are, a rather hastily put-together entry for the PhotoHunt.


I saw a hill wearing a straw sun-hat.  (Turenne, where its strategic position allowed it to resist Viking invasions and escape royal power from as early as the 11th century.)



I saw chimneys wearing academic mortarboards, and church spires wearing hats that defy description. (Collonges, built almost entirely of red stone.)


And I saw a building in Brive wearing a beanie.
