Richard, this temperature was at us a few days ago (now only -7 º C), but I live in Siberia

When I was a kid I thought I had missed something really cool because I had never seen snow. After six years in Fairbanks, Alaska, two and a half in Iceland and a total of about ten years in the Northwest United States (Idaho and Eastern Washington State) I saw plenty of whatever I thought I had been missing and decided it was time to go home. Temps next week will be about 29° C (84° F). No white Christmas here but that's OK with me.

So cal says welcome to the admiral.

Tomorrow I'm having a medical procedure that us married guys with plenty of kids have.
Tonights shave did not involve my face, if you know what I mean
Not quite BBS but not too bad

Have a great day fellas

Been there...
It'll be fine. Good luck tomorrow.

Monday Morning:

Dovo Bismarck 6/8"
Semogue Owners Club Bristle
D.R. Harris Marlborough, soap
Face Lather
Neil Miller-2.5" Latigo Leather
D.R. Harris Marlborough ASL
Thayers Medicated Superhazel with Aloe Vera
WTG, XTG & ATG (neck)

First shave with my brand new Bismarck. This was a 5 star shave! This razor is by far better than the cheaper Dovo Best Quality that I own as well.
It is smooth, like a Sheffield razor, but aggressive like a Heljestrand.
I am excited!
