We can let it drop but I’m telling you. She obviously is a better match for the guy in green and something is going on...

There's a mysterious figure on the right I can't quite make out. Another woman? A skate cop? I need to know more!

I was going to leave it a mystery but let's go ahead and put you all at ease

Well see! That cleared everything up. I feel better there wasn't some unrequited love going on.

Awesome read Dave! I the razor looks fantastic @uacowboy!

Good to hear the adjustments didn’t change the shave! The original design definitely needed some TLC.

Nice shaves, Dave. You use an interesting variety of stuff.

 

[NurseDave]

Dave is either a modern man not afraid to explore the past or a lost soul wandering aimlessly.

 

[MilkCrate]

Nice shave!

@Dave in KY
A paragon of enlightenment and thought provoking. At least for @NurseDave anyway.

Water isn't just for building lather and rinsing your gear, Dave. Just a reminder!

On Dune as it is here. Water is life.

Our shave shirt wearers should keep track of days the shirt goes unwashed!

Sent a package to Sam @woodpusher as I left the island. He's such a trooper.

So my mainland shave today was to Highlight some more of our Vendors and Hobbyists that we SO APPRECIATE !!!! Not a lot to say. The shave was nice and close but not as close as normal so an evening shave before a zoom meeting this evening is probable. Have a great day Cadre !!!!

Two for Tuesd...............................wait a minute, it's Friday. Yeah whatever. Needed a closer shave to feel good for an evening Zoom Meeting and wanted to take the new to me Feather Stainless Steel razor for a spin with a new Feather blade. Well it is MILD but if you concentrate you find the sweet spot and can maintain it for a close shave although I question the longevity of it. Nice razor, I mean how many razors can you use with a Feather blade on your second shave of the day and buff away trying to get glass like smoothness and not come away all bloody. I'll play with it again a few times to decide before passing judgement if it goes on the chopping block. Sorry @BarberDave That's not the fires growing in AZ (I hope) It's Texas on Fire. Yummmmmmmm, have a good evening Cadre !!!!

 

[NurseDave]

That’s called the Feather SS?
