Well, after seeing Steven, and Mark use my namesake today, I thought I would join the Hombres Party with Spaghetti Western, but realized I had none in the den, and what is remaining is back at the Barbershop. Will have to rectify that, and bring a tub, and bottle of aftershave home. So............ still wanting to be a part of the tri-fecta, I used Doc Holiday. A wonderful soap and Aftershave by @CBLindsay . A fantastic fragrance of parts of the Original Hombres Barbershop, with a take on the famous gambler and gunfighter. Since he was a dentist by trade, the addition of clove, since he was a snappy dresser, a hint on Saritorial fragrance, and finally being from Georgia..... Of course Peach. With the original notes of Leather ( both saddle and Barber chair ) Jalapeno flower, Terra Cotta, Creosote, gunsmoke and Russian Thisle (Tumbleweed) and All the smells of Old Tombstone, AZ

The Cactus Razor is a funny one. John Phitzgraff Milwaukee, and made in Soligen Germany.... Do Wisconsins and Germans know cactus?

Anyway 3 fantastic passes for DSBBS, finished with CBL Litsea Cubebe Witch Hazel, Doc Holiday Aftershave Tonic, and CBL Barber Powder... Shave of the WEEK!


At the Ranch:
102 today and Barber Errand Day, not to mention a R&R of my Jeep Radiator, Lunch with my Beauty, and cigars and coffee..

PS: please keep @Cvargo in your thoughts. He lost grandmother recently, he was very close to her. I had the honor of meeting and spending thanksgiving with her a few years back.. Prayers to the family
 
102 today?! Ouch.
Fortunatey the the R&R of the radiator isn't terribly difficult. The difficult part, oddly enough, is refilling it and getting the air bubble out. Fill the top hose going to the engine before connecting it to the radiator and it helps a lot.

"Time Machine Tuesday"

Felt like a Vintage shave today, so Colgate Cup soap, Gillette Red Tip, Shulton Old Spice. With of course the modern Semogue 620 Boar, and the CBL Barber Powder, of course.

Called the shave BBS today, as a New GEM Diamond Glide, needs a bit of break in, but in the end a very nice "ol school" shave

At the Ranch:
104 today, a haircut, and Washing the autos today is all that is on the agenda, except, of course, coffee and cigars. I did start AG-1 this past week, and have noticed a difference, will try it for a month and see. It is a nice start to the day with Superfoods and greens.
