It needed to rest for a moment. After 10 years of service, the wedge piece holding the bucket to the handle rusted and broke. RIP shovel.
Just to let you know...we here in Southern Louisiana were affected by the cold weather too. I had to pull out the ice scrapper yesterday morning and gently remove the layer of frost that covered the windshield of my truck. No time to use the defrost.

Guess you don't understand the language of the snow plow.
In "snow plow" that means. Have a nice day"

We haven’t gotten anything so far this year. The last few years have been very mild too...not that I’m complaining
I may have missed it, but what ever happened with that razor? Did it ever hit production?

No he got taken by the people after sending money to start a run of them. They were in Pakistan I think so he couldn't do much about it......

A lot of flooding around here and things are still cresting. Natural gas company was taking a boat over their property checking all there stuff that was underwater. Downtown is pumping to keep the river from breaching the levee. Road leading to us has the river coming up and across the road now. Will be dry tomorrow but 4 more days of rain at least predicted for next week. Hate this for anyone getting affected as I've been thru several floods as a kid, when we lived in PA with our house having 2 stories including the basement filled.

Has anyone predicted when you can expect things to crest and start going back down?

Not that I now of. I don't need to go anywhere so am not real worried. There is another route I could try but it's probably flooded too. Just sitting tight. I'm fine

2020 Shave # 42 ( 461 Consecutive Shaves )
Razor: Occam OC
Blade: Wizamet (1)
Brush: Rubberset 400
Soap: CBL Tonsorial Fresh Lime 3017 (41)
Aftershave 1: Humphrey's Alcoholado Maravilla 70
Aftershave 2: Speick
Fragrance: Nuit D'Issey Noir Argent
Shave 41 with the Fresh Lime and 2nd outing with the Occam safety razor. This is the mid plate, kinda a partial opened scallop plate. I put a fresh Wizamet in it which was better than the Astra SP for sure but still not a great razor for me. Actually grabbed and filleted my skin on the neck in a spot. This razor isn't really aggressive, I just see it as not well engineered. Sure hope the Hiram coming to me is more to my liking. This one is going on the selling block.........Have a great day Cadre !!!
