All the favs today for the shave....
Penhaligons English Fern
Koraat Viscerion
Castle Forbes.

A Special shave today so the set up had to be perfect. indeed it was. 3- passed and DSBBS with Dragons, Ferns, and Castles.


At the Ranch:

A beautiful Day with temps in the high 60's. Actually dusted off the Breville, and we enjoyed some homemade Lattes, and some pastry, a few cigars on tap, some Jeep stuff, and a Zoom Call to cap it all off

Have a great Sunday Folks
I think that's my favorite brush and razor in your collection too.:)
The kids are coming to pick up the grandbaby and have dinner so I won't make the Zoom Call, but happy birthday!

I received a very nice care package from @thecajunblade existing of a new soap, aftershave balm, and a really cool Str8 Razor stand. My video today is a Blind review, as it was the 1st time using, and boy howdy was it good. 3 passes and DSBBS.

At the Ranch. From 80's to 50's! but it is sunny, a bit windy. Yesterday we had a few Dust storms come through the area. One, sadly southeast of here on I-10 causes a 30 car pile up.

Other than that, we had a great Zoom on Sunday, and thanks for all the B-Day Wishes!

A really quick shave before heading to the shop for my Monday, so basically I’m calling the shave “Ol Reliable”

MWF for tue suds, Sorentino for the manufacturing, Omeha Aquae for the post, and Brut for the frag

Some talc and Thayers as a the norm

At the Ranch:
Cool temps and some rain on the way. Hopefully some snow on the mountains. 30’s in the morning with moderate temps in the afternoon

A few new arrivals. A huge covey Gambal Quail with some yougins, and the Harris Hawks now patrol the day with a squadron of 8 now, and the is owned by a few new Great Horned Owls having a party on the telephone poles that surround. A couple of Coyotes out for a stroll this morning on the road as well

Love living where we do!

Have a great day folks

Cool, windy, and rain later in the day made a perfect day to use Tabac. Spicy, warm and a wonderful floral scent.

Luca Brasi was on construction today, and a Gillette Red Tip for removal duties

Some Thayers, Talc, and both AS and Cologne in Tabac made for a nice start to a blustery cool day

Hope your day as well also
 
They can stand about 2-3 feet tall and a wingspan of 4-5 feet. About 6 lbs. and have a wing structure that allows them to fly completely silent.

When I was a kid, one of my favorite books was “Owls in the Family” by Canadian conservationist and author Farley Mowat. Very funny and informative. It recounts his family’s experiences when they adopted and raised an orphaned Great Horned Owl.

Wonderful shave today and basically this is a head shop and a shaving kit for those of you young ones that don’t know what a head shop is back in the day we used to have places where you could go get cigarettes and things that they called water pipes, although we had better names for them

This soap by AE is a very nice tribute to the greatest band of all time. That’s right, Pink Floyd.

A definite, psychedelic shave trip without the psychedelics it brings to mine, such memories… Well, such memories that you can remember and not remember as well

Cannabis, floral, patchouly, incense make this a great shave set. The artwork gives tribute to a song by Pink Floyd called when pigs fly and also gives tribute to the album cover the wall.

Fantastic three pass shave with the black beauty and of course DSBBS

Have a great day, everybody

Running a little bit late today, so a quick grab off the shelf shave including shave stick,Speick, the vector, Sorrentino, and the Cremo blue cedar in Cypress

Surprisingly, this all worked well, and nothing beats the quickness of a shave stick

Hope everybody enjoys their Saturday
