Bourbon Country Shave Journal - Dave in KY

I've got to order some more CBL soap to keep up lol. The Ghost Dragon's Blood sounds amazing. I'm glad you're happy with the brushes. How's the silvertip? Is the shedding tapering off?

Blade: PolSilver SI (2)

Brush: Eric Sorrentino Custom w/24mm Synthetic

Soap: Pdp 63
Aftershave 1: Thayers Cucumber

Aftershave 2: CFG Ghost Town Barber


Quick shave this morning before going to sit with member of our Congregation whose wife is having surgery. They're older and are stressed although its a routine thing if surgeries can be routine.

Nice and reminded of how great this scent is. No muss and no fuss. Everything right as rain after topping off with GTB. I'm gonna be that guy today. Have a great day Cadre !!
 
Good shave today Dave! No Fuss No Muss. I'll keep you and that family in my thoughts today!
 
3 hour surgery was a complete success according to the Doc, "Couldn't have gone any better" In her room recovering now. Thanks everyone
 
I walked around with a 2 foot ring of olfactory awesomeness

People were flocking to me for no apparent reason other then wanting to take in the scents

Great shave rocking the GTB! You can be that guy, it’s ok.

Good news on the surgery and recovery.

Razor: Timeless .68 Open Comb

Blade: Gillette Silver Blue (5)

Brush: Eric Sorrentino Custom w/24mm Cashmere

Soap: CFG Easy Street
Aftershave 1: Humphrey's Alcoholado Maravilla

Aftershave 2: Avon Cool Sage

So as I'm looking over what to use today my wife asks what I'm doing. I say 'm picking what to use today. She comes over and says I'll pick. I told her go ahead. She looks over the stuff on the shelf and says,"Easy Street" and walks away. Sounds good to me so that's how the selection started. Nice scent and wish he still had had the Splash when I ordered it but he was out. Nice smooth shave and chose the Avon Cool Sage to top things off. NICE scent with good power without being too strong. I LIKE this stuff for sure. We've been getting tons of rain and today is another wet one so will be doing things around the inside of the house. Grass is getting crazy high. Hope to get to it tomorrow afternoon. Have a great day Cadre !!
