I won't tell you what I shaved with for a month, most here would find it offensive.
On the weeks ends I was able to bike ride on the beach in the early morning hours for many miles and enjoy the sunrise, exercise and solitude. Kind of cleared my head after loosing Pop.

Anyway, had my first Straight Shave in more than a month. I had ordered another brush from Bill (Pixelfixed) before I left so it was waiting for me when I got home. I used it for the first time today. The man makes incredible brushes.

Both girls are now home and I'm feeling good after a sucko last few months. Tonight's shave just added to the day.

Hot shower, warm oil
Dirty Bird Scuttle
Badger in Lignum Vitae/Walrus Ivory by Bill
Truefitt and Hill Almond Shave Cream
Dubl Duck, 5/8 Full hollow, hand hammered tang
Stropped 100 laps
Razorock Aluminum
Hot Towels (felt wonderful)
Lilac Vegetal AS
Vaseline for men
