Had a great meet up with Jeff. We both brought some toys to share. Jeff was nice enought to offer for my son to drive his Vette. That is as long as he could find the key hole. LOL!

Oh and i just learned there is no key hole for the ignition. Ha ha. So it was a safe offer on Jeff's part. But my son love it.

Awesome stuff today, Gents!! :D
Great shave today using a preshave wash of Musgo Lime Glyce soap provided by my buddy Tarkus(Darl) and some sweet Razorock limited soap from Sr8Shooter(Paul). Most excellent prep and lather! Thanks guys! The Wostenholm frameback shave is always an enigma to me. Nothing else like it. So light and smooth! The pecans are starting to bud here in Texas, so I am getting a jump on springtime stuff today. The plant is an Amaryllis. Grew to 3 feet in 2 months from a bulb! Something new to see everyday, just like on this forum!
Everyone enjoy a fine week! Tom

It was a DFS shave. The Alum left me with hardly any feedback and no nicks, burn, weepers or stingers. So far no bad bumps either.
No pic today, to busy on the hones!!!
Happy Shaving All!
