Enjoy the day to the fullest, my friend...

It's funny Bill,
I was about to make a photo composition with her and I in the background (rather than the Horseshoe Bend) and she walked in and gave me that look (you know the look I am talking about )...Nothing was exchanged verbally, but that look was a mouthful...Even I got it !

What is it with women not wanting their photos shared ? You need a DOD clearance or something

Maybe a WK spend in Vegas with your angel to celebrate the anniversary?

congrats to both of you.

Celebrate well

I always have it in the house.

What's in this thing?

One thing that is very nice to dry and cracked fingers is Almond oil...works wonders.

Thank you Max,
I am looking into a Vegas getaway...you know that was coming , right? I would love to hook up and talk shave and maybe you and I can take our cameras and head to Red Canyon (or somewhere local) and take some pictures. What are we going to do with the girls though while we're out taking shots ?

I know the look all too well, Robert.....

Überlather: Al Raz Custom Semi-dense Formulation Shave Creme

Astringent: Thayers Witch Hazel (Rose Petal, no alcohol)

Post-shave: Trumper's Sandalwood Skin Food

Facial Moisturizer: Trumper's Facial Moisturizer

Cologne: Penhaligon Opus 1870

Picture: This was at taken at Horseshoe Bend near Page, Arizona.

Result: Today is our 3rd anniversary and being a special day, I had my angel pick out the SOTD hardware for today, which you see listed above. Who am I to argue, right ? The Le Grelot is one of Max' masterpieces , rescaled in butterscotch micarta. Well, the combination of Al's custom scent Bomb (which my wife loves) and the Le Grelot (which I love) was a recipe fit for kings. I wanted to spend the entire day shaving . Tonight (since I can't take the day off...too many fires to put out at work), my wife will enjoy a special dinner fit for a Queen: Moroccan fish with Couscous (probably with a 2006 bottle of Seven Deadly Zins Zinfandel). And yes, in case you are wondering, I am making dinner. And, judging by the feel of my face, I get the impression that I'll still be sporting this BBS look way into late night.
