That sounds great! I can't wait to read about it and wish Ken great luck in getting out of the lawyer biz.

I can't wait to see it. Sounds Great! The only question I would have is what got you into wanting to be a hat maker? What was your inspiration?

Cheers!

I've heard a lot of this from Ken in the past year +, but it's neat to read more details!

Looking forward to reading the rest of your article, Web. Are there more photos coming?

Nice job!

I hope you can capture the blood, sweat and tears Ken has shed to make the Camptown happen.

I could tell you of phone call after phone call between Ken and myself a couple winters ago as he bounced ideas off me and worked to put this company together, all the while juggling his law work and family resposibilities.....but then, I'm sure you captured the whole story, and in Ken's words.

We talk in glowing terms of Steve and Marc, for example, and their passion to the hatmaking art....but there are others here...Ken has the same passion....and pride in that product.

I just 'know' stuff. These folks DO stuff. Completely different animals, and folks to truly respect!!
