Day number 40 of the Williams shave soap exile
Well, it’s not exactly 40 years wandering the desert like the people of Israel, but, spending 40 days wandering the Williams desert seems just as bad
With no end in sight based on the eighth of an inch of puck with no breakage yet who knows when this will end
A very good shave as always, but just boring, boring, boring
Have a great day

Now it’s just getting stupid

Day number 42 of my captivity of Williams
Was a good shave DSBBS but I am noticing that the GEM blades by persona seemed to fall off a little bit quicker than the lab blue. More testing after this captivity is over with.
The only good news is is the puck is finally contouring to the bottom of the shave bowl and it’s looking to be a little bit translucent so maybe the end is in sight but I’m not too optimistic
I am looking forward to burning the Williams box on my videos once it’s over
Looking forward to a zoom call tomorrow last chance to get signed up we’d love to see you and everybody. Have a good day.

day #43
, so
Well, The puck is now completely formed to the bowl and is becoming a bit translucent, YAY! It could be showing the beginning of the end of captivity. Still, of course, providing a great lather and shave, but sooooooo looking forward to the end of this madness
At the Ranch:
A walkabout this morning to assess the needs for pre-fire season stuff,as it is getting too hot, too soon. A lazy Sunday doing laundry for the shop and home, a Zoom call later, a few Cigars, some coffee, and so fortth. Had a rare fried egg Sandwich on Sliced Cheesecake Factory Rye, so the day started well

Day #45
changed it up a bit today for St. Paddy's Day. Was missing Str8 Razor shaving and so still beholden to the Challenge using the soap, but a very nice DSBBS Fili 13 shave. With is being the "green holiday" AV Frost Lime was also a change.... Based on Today I cannot wait to get excited about daily shaves again

Hey, guess what we’re shaving with?
The good news is is you can actually see completely through the puck now as it’s wafer thin
So I figure another 4 to 5 days before I get to burn this box and actually get onto some really nice shaves
As always, the shave was good, but boring
Have a good day folks
