Literally the EXACT same setup as yesterday except this time the soap is all gone. There was less in there then I thought. Oh well... I have a few new CBL items to give a go first and provide feedback. Then I shall pick my next 3017. I am leaning towards an Ethos, or a Razorock. We shall see.

Razor: Gillette Heritage
Blade: Gillette Platinum (1)
Soap/cream: CBL Dolphin A$$
Brush: Razorock f400
Aftershave1: Lucky Tiger
Aftershave2: Aqua Velva Musk
Talc: King Talc
Well today I used the Gillette Heritage razor that I ordered like 3 months ago on Amazon. It finally arrived and used it for the first time this morning. It's a pretty mild shave but efficient. The handle is a little shorter then I'm used to, but it is in that travel case. I'll probably hang onto this.
The soap is from @CBLindsay typical great performance and the scent is nice but not sure what the rear end of a dolphin is supposed to smell like... But it ain't bad. I'll trust Chris since he's the one who snuck into SeaWorld to figure it out.

Nothing crazy to report. Went to mass this morning then came home and roasted some coffee and did some reading outside. A storm blew in and provided some much needed rain, and it helped get a fire under control about 30 miles south east of us. That was started by fireworks in a restricted area and caused a lot evacuations last night. A quick Google search of the Traverse Fire will let ya know what we are facing. It smells like a campfire outside that's for sure.
Have a blessed Sunday cadre

Well another new to me soap. The CBL Peanut Butter. This one smells just like a peanut butter cookie. Very nice scent but not one that would make hte PB&J in my opinion. Adding a fruit scent to this would just make it way too sweet. But as a PB cookie its a fun soap. I also finished off the AV Musk today. It's a nice splash but honestly not something I see myself replacing.

Well the steering stabilizer bracket for the motorhome is supposed to arrive today. Assuming it does I will work on getting that installed tomorrow. And then we head out Thursday for another camping trip. We will have hookups for the first time on this trip so I also plan on bringing my shave gear and will see about getting a video down from the motorhome bathroom whilst shaving. We shall see. Anyways have a good day Cadre.

Hope your bracket comes in. Who knows with Amazon these days...or any method of shipping for that matter. This weekend sounds like a fun one!
