Old School British Goodness for a Tuesday shave. Hints of England and the West Coast as well with the Morris & Forndran and the Blackland Tradere. With a brand new GEM Diamond Glide it provided an extremely smooth close shave. MWF, always provides a great lather. The Tradere, like the original is very aggressive, however with a light touch provides a wonderful DSBBS shave. Too bad both the Original and the Blackland versions are no longer made. Finished off with the Magic Alchemy that is CBL Barber Powder. This stuff morphs to match any fragrance you are wearing, and even enhances it.
Finished off with British Sterling for the win, a powdery finish with a great citrus opening, perfect for summer, or climbing into your Spitfire for a fly-about

At the Ranch:
103 yesterday and only 94 today, so the jackets come out, LOL Lyka, being a Husky, decided today at 6 am was time to go exploring, dug out of the yard and what was a nice Tuesday morning became a SAR Mission. When found she was "invited" to come back through her escape point. I think she thought we would just place her in the car, but after having to take 80lbs through a small hole under the fence, and getting dirty, she had some thoughts on her rescue, she is now avoiding eye contact and sulking after being verbally scolded by me and the boss, as she was extremely stressed over the event-
Never did I think I would be purchasing Pet "Air Tags" with Geo Fencing and GPS tracking, but know she knows AI and Big Brother are watching
Have a Terrific Tuesday Folks
