    Its Father's Day in Australia, so HAPPY FATHER'S DAY to all you Dads here and overseas.
    I had to drive home from Sydney today after the get-together at Oz's place yesterday and so didn't get home until 3pm. The kids were waiting for me with the sweetest gifts and lots of hugs.
    Being a Dad is such a beautiful thing.
    After yesterdays amazing shave there was very little to shave tonight, but I love posting on a Sunday night.
    Only took me 2 passes to get me back to BBS again. Another fantastic shave.

    A Happy Father's Day to you, Grant, and all the other fathers down under!

    Get-to-gethers are really nice to do. We've had a couple here in NE New Jersey and I've made some really good friends and had a really great time.

    Grant, Happy Father's Day!!!!! I find that the gifts I treasure most are the ones they made for me. I have a bunch of stuff I've saved over the years. This year my youngest daughter gave me a father's day card which really hit the nail on the head. It read:
    Outside: Dad, you've made me what I am today.
    Inside:A GIANT SMART-ASS. Oh, also, I'm good-looking. Thanks for both of those. Happy Father's Day.

    Hide those little goodies, they will become your treasures.

    Have a great day.

    Otto Deutsch's "Hans" did another fantastic job this morning with the help of a wonderfully aromatic shave stick by Prairie Creations (Gentleman's Pipe).

    Default Early B-day present

    My wife had me pick out a razor for my B-day then gave it to me a month and a half early insisting I use it who am I to refuse? Now of course I had to give it my best effort.

    PRE: long hot relaxing shower
    SOAP: uberlather created with Red Clover and Leather soap and a dash of avocado and glycerin
    BRUSH: Rooney
    RAZOR: DOVO Master
    AS: Gio

    An incredible rich moist lather made for shaving.
    Result a smooth comfortable shave with a finial HMMMMM of approval from my better half.
    Shaving nirvana. And to top it off she returned from antique shopping with a DD satin wedge that is pristine and looks to never been honed. I have a feeling the pay back is going to be costly LOL.

    Hoping everyone has a great day
