That brought back memories. I saw the Doors at Hi Corbett Field in Tuscon in May of 1968 while I was stationed at Ft. Huachuca AZ.

Good times.

What are they doing in the basement? Play them! I read some of 'The Doors of Perception' by Aldous Huxley the other day. This was his 1954 book on his experiences taking Mescaline and the book that The Doors were named after, of course...

Got a nice night shave in today. Got home from work and decided to use the Merkur. Spent a long time prepping the beard and lathering up the B and B ( the smell of this stuff is devine) the Merkur took away all the whiskers. 3 passes to BBS and I am feeling great.

Took this other pic a night or two ago, it is pretty much "as is" from my iphone. the sky was so gorgeous.

Congrats...Great choice for a creme. If you like TOBS Rose, I think you'll also enjoy Cyril Salter's Wild Rose. An amazing scent. I recommend invested in a Rose soap as well (Trumper's makes a good one too). I sometimes like combining various florals together (Violet + Rose or Lavender + Rose, etc...).
