And, ahem, if anyone in your group has a thinning hair/bald spot situation have them wear a bandanna over their hairline or apply sunscreen to the scalp, said Charlie who got a scalp burn once...

Great suggestion on the greeting! I'd recommend using Good Morning, Good Afternoon, or Good Night based on time of day followed by How are you today if you get a response. Even if you walk into a store/bar/restaurant and don't immediately see someone, it's tradition to greet the room and you'll be surprised how many replies you get from people you don't see.
