Looks like a nice trip to Universal. Did you actually overnight there?
I love how they change things up there so often.
I’m from the era of giant foam rocks rolling downhill at the tram.
Only went a few couple of times myself but was always surprised how fun it was.

We rented an Airbnb about 15 minutes away. I’ve only been a few times that I remember. But it is great that they do work in new things from more recent movies from time to time. The rocks are no more for the tram. They’ve kept around Jaws, Psycho, some of the car displays, and the flash flood street among other things.

Jaws and the flash flood are just classics, as cheesy as they are. Glad they kept them around.

Great shave this morning as the sun came up. Cold morning but it takes too long to wait for the warm water to get flowing up to the main bathroom, so cold water shaves continue.

So cold for us sunny California folks! Had to have hit just under 40 last night, cause with the sun starting to peel as I began my shave, it was 40. Brrrr!

Great shave though! No complaints as the Essence skated along for 3 passes. Finished up with fruity scents for a change up.

Starting the day out with IDT this morning, then a shift at the EOL facility. Hopefully I’ll stay out of trouble! 😂

Have a great Tuesday all!

Man, only Wednesday and I’m tired! I think I’m at least caught up enough now at work to be able to get back to a more usual rhythm. No more paid holidays till summer though…boooo!

Great shave this morning! Usual suspects and more importantly, no battle damage. Boozy vanilla to close things off via Moustache EDP!

Definitely gonna go get some professional coffee first thing…then a day driving around town, making the rounds!

Happy Wednesday all!
