Nice lazy wake up today. Otherwise it’s a day dedicated to some family time and squeezing in what chores can be done between scheduled events.

Nice shave this morning and last Feather shave for the next few days. I think both may need a new blade at this point, we’ll see. I’m at least going to swap out the Tech for the GC .68 for a while. Wanted to try the ADG Profondo - very nice, basically signature ADG with an aquatic twist.

Missus in taking part in an online conference this morning for Mary Kay, next is a friend’s birthday party picnic at a park, and later this evening is get together and pumpkin carving contest at one of my SIL’s. Gonna be a full day for sure!

Have a great Saturday all!
 
Shave #292 (452 Open Blade Shaves) of 2020:

Gear: RR GC .68, Wizamet blade, Yaqi Rainbow w/ pony synth brush, Moon Soaps Amaretto soap, homemade witch hazel/aloe blend, Lucky Tiger AS, and Ferragamo Uomo to finish!

Up early after yesterday’s long but nice day. It’s showtime!

Nice shave this morning with the MS Amaretto. Lather was substantive and cushiony...smell, heavenly! Swapped out the Ogalalla I used last time for some good ol Lucky Tiger. GC .68 was a fairly smooth operator for 3 passes and cleanup on the road to BBS. Topped off with the gourmand, tiramisu-ish scent of Ferragamo Uomo. Very nice!

Going to be a lot of cleanup this week at work as, after service, we focus on getting stuff ready to hold indoor services. Thankfully, once putting alway and cleanup up the outside stuff is done, it’ll all be pretty easy on Sundays for a while.

Still have to finish watering later, mustn’t forget! Our mini Fall heat wave is over, for now. So, we’re on the downward dip toward 70s weather during the day and 50s at night. Wonderful!

Have a blessed Sunday all!
 
That sounds like a really enjoyable setup. I'm ordering some of that Amaretto soap this week!

Very nice shower n shave this morning. Quite the layering of scents, mostly spring type stuff, but really these things could be used year round.

Let’s see where today leads shall we?

Have a great Monday all!
