    Well i decided to give her another spin. Even though there was very little stubble. Seems to have a hard time the right side of neck. UGH!!! Other than that a very comfortable shave. I did get BBS 2 passes but a touch up with the 3rd.

    Used the Crox Paddle stop until I could see that it had cleaned the edge and made it look smooth and well defined. I don't know how many very carefully done laps.
    SRP Premium 1 Strop. 100 laps.

    Shave Prep:
    Hot shower, Neutrogena rubbed into whiskers
    Warm AOS oil
    BD Scuttle
    Hand made badger
    Taylor Almond Shave cream
    Wade and Butcher Barbers notch
    AOS Aluminum
    Gentleman's Best After shave Milk.

    What a great shave. I was thrilled that I could get the edge like that. Now I need to buy a hone set and learn to set bevels.

    I went off and took a nice drive. Figured I try to get another good photo.

    Location: Alpine Lookout, Palisades Interstate Park, NJ
    Lat: 40°55'50.57"N, Long: 73°55'35.63"W

    Combined a couple of things I enjoy in life.



    Hudson River over looking NY.

    Great photos!!

    I love the new 'Vettes... Unfortunately, if I bought one to help salve my mid-life crisis, my name would be in the next day's paper... In the obits!
    I believe a 200mph speedometer is there to be used.. and my reflexes ain't what they used to be...

    Hope you enjoyed the ride...

    Today I said goodbye to two beauties...

    Hot shower
    Soaked my 26mm Thater in my
    SRD lathering bowl as I stropped on my
    SRD English Bridle. Whipped up some
    KD Creations "First Frost" and basked in the menthol.
    Dovo 25 - Fritz Bracht -/\/\/- W Greaves & Sons
    Hot water rinse felt great after the menthol cream
    Lucido menthol/alcohol splash

    I think the First Frost and Lucido are my ideal combination on a hot day
