The weather headline for our area is: Slow moving system will likely last until Wednesday afternoon
Nothing sticking on the pavement or sidewalks yet, but the grass has a nice coating. Hopefully, it'll pass without too much accumulation.

Blame me - I sent the cold weather packing. Must have entered the wrong coordinates, I tried sending to @BarberDave !

Decent shave today, but I used too much water in the lather so it was a little thin and wet, but it worked nonetheless.

Hopefully, the Steelers-Ravens game will be played this afternoon. Old-fashioned football weather, but it should be a non-factor for both teams.

That's ok. Takes us all a while to figure it out when we're new to this...

Wednesday Night Football? Is this yet another 2020 thing?

Loving this combo of gear and software. Made a better lather today with less water, but it still wasn't quite perfect. Getting there. The first lather I had with this tub was ideal, but others have been off the mark.

The Steelers' game was tough to watch - they just didn't play well. Oh well, a win is a win. Have a great day, Cadre!

Nice shave today with an improved lather. Whipped it up with a damp brush till it was "snotty", as @BarberDave and @CBLindsay describe it. Added a little water to the bowl and set to work. Excellent soap. The post shave elixir is very soothing, and yes, @dangerousdon , I smell good!

Good shave today. I think I've finally nailed the lather. We'll see if I can replicate it tomorrow. No good football till tomorrow, though the Cleveland/Tennessee game could be interesting. I'll probably hope for the Titans, though perhaps I should root for the Browns, even though they are in the same division. In fact, I really don't think it'll matter, if the Steelers stay strong. We shall see.
