Just got done looking through the booty from the Meet... 3 packs of DE Blades, a cool DE 4-Piece Razor (... a buddy and I were just talking about making a DE handle out of a bullet casing and, interestingly enough, this Razor has a similar brass sheath for a handle so we may steal some ideas there...) and the Captain's Choice Aftershave Samples as well as the LA Shaving.
I'd never had any experience with LA Shaving Soaps but the smell and texture of it were so interesting it is absolutely on deck for my next shave!
The Captain's Choice Aftershaves all really have more subtle, earthy notes and I'm stoked to give them a try... I'm calling 2014 'The Year Of Citrus' as it seems everything I like best recently is a Lime, Grapefruit or other citrus scent.
I also got to smell the Oglalla scents and they are remarkable! I am definitely putting them on the Short List for Future Acquisitions!
It was really nice to get to look at and smell all the various samples... Really helps to have something right in front of you when it comes to decision making!
Thanks again to all the Vendors/Donors as they provided some incredible products and I know I'm adding at least a couple to my Birthday/Christmas List this year!!! :)

Also... A Portland Meet would definitely be interesting as well! Not sure about Dates but I think the PacNW could handle 3 Meets a year. And, you never know... Could develop into something bigger in the future!?
