Great video today! When I think back to my churchgoing youth, singing was such a big part of the service. That must feel very strange. I hope everyone attending stays safe and healthy!

Thanks for watching Frank! A good number of folks are upset about it, but it is what it is at this point I guess.
 
I caught your video before bed last night. Good stuff. How does one do a church service without singing? I may or may not have been skim watching while perusing fun parts websites. :ROFLMAO:

At least you admit it! 😜

A valid question. It’s difficult to imagine. We’re going to try a prayer/meditative type “service”, with only instrumental music.
 
Shave #186 (413 Open Blade Shaves) of 2020:

Gear: Blackland Vector, Feather Pro
blade, Paladin Harlequin Chief 26mm brush, SV 70th, homemade witch hazel/aloe mix, SV 70th AS, and Guerlain Vetiver to finish!

Corona Virus Official Day 111:

Nice, un-pressured morning. Made a light breakfast for the missus and me. Got some chores going. Washed the doggies.

Shave was perfection! Went with my SV 70th/Guerlain Vetiver combo...and I’m golden!

Decided yesterday not to make the trip to any gatherings, family or otherwise. We’ll just make a day of it at home, keeping the doggies comforted.

Have a great Saturday all and a happy 4th!
 
Shave #187 (413 Open Blade Shaves) of 2020:

Gear: Blackland Vector, Feather Pro
blade, Yaqi Rainbow w/ brown synth brush, CBL Grassroots Lavender, homemade witch hazel/aloe mix, Fine AB AS, and Fine AB EDT to finish!

Corona Virus Official Day 112:

Had a nice 4th. Fireworks around the neighborhood started around 6 and didn’t stop till around 1 am. Lots of big illegals this year...got to wonder where people find all this stuff...

Up for online service, but not before a shower n shave! Went for the Fine AB scent profile. No disappointment there! It all went off without a hitch and I love, love, LOVE this scent!

Back to work tomorrow for a few days at least. There’s a small wedding that’s going to happen to prepare for, cleaning up after whatever happened in services today, then a bunch of long term projects - power washing walkways, tinting classroom windows, etc.

Have a blessed Sunday all!

Yes, looking across the bay, the whole waterline area with lit up like we were softening Oakland up with artillery for an invasion. I told my wife we need some nefarious friends to teach us about all this.

Shave #188 (413 Open Blade Shaves) of 2020:

Gear: Blackland Vector, Feather Pro
blade, RR Big Bruce synth brush, CBL SIR Fougere tonsorial, homemade witch hazel/aloe mix, Pitralon Classic AS, and Annie Oakley Stampede to finish!

Corona Virus Official Day 113:

Up early to get ready for work! A cup of cold brew, a little heavy whipping cream, and a donut to see me out the door!

Good shave this morning. SIR Fougere tonsorial keeps firing away on almost all cylinders. This is a beta puck but it seems to keep pace with the premium base in its own way and also feels like it outperforms Money tonsorial a bit...the scent certainly has lasted much longer!

Have to make some decisions this week regarding the MS ministry position I interviewed for at the end of last year. Nothings been offered (I got a “no” from them initially, but it was based almost purely on logicistics of moving and possibility of culture shock in bringing a CA family to MS). We’ve kept in touch with the pastor and some of the folks there though and we still feel like it’s a possibility, there have even been hintings from their side. We’re approaching almost a year now though since our visit. The missus wants me to convince them if possible, it’s not my style to push, but it’s tempting in this situation... 🤷‍♂️

Have a great Monday all! Hope this week treats ya well!
 
Isn’t it a bit early for a cold brew?

Hm ... that’s interesting that the MS position is still available. Maybe not a push, but would another inquiry be warranted?
 
Hmmm, you would think they might voice their concerns and then let the person applying decide.
 
Thanks gents!

FWIW, if I have any regrets, it's for not going after something rather than going for something and not getting it.

I guess it’s a feeling of responsibility should something happen in the process? I’m sure there were proba🤷‍♂️
