Today was a hellish driving day. Roads terrible. I called my dispatch and told them, I’m shutting down as soon as I find a parking spot. Roads did clear some and I made it through St. Louis fine, and shut down at Loves in Hamel, Illinois. I’m 5 hours to delivery, but now I’m being told delivery might not happen till Monday. I saw numerous accidents near Arkansas/Missouri line. Tomorrow will try to make Loves at Davenport, Iowa. For over an hour this morning traffic was moving 10 mph. Urggghhh. 😡🤯🤬

Glad you made it safely to a rest stop!
 
The Flying J is about 10 mins from where I live. Used to work in Accounting/Payroll for Shandex Truck in Pickering for ~1.5 yrs before I retired (for the second time), so I have a healthy respect for what you do.
 
I need a shower tonight, so a quick shave too. Enjoy.

Loved today’s gear.

In my experience, good hydration is one of the keys to a best shave. I never had a question about the ‘why’ in your practice of a frequent re-lather.

My problem is that, for me, the lack of one of ‘them thar college ejamacations’ makes keeping track of ‘the where I shaved’ pattern an insurmountable task.
🤪

Great shave Leon. Safe travels.
 
Much better driving day today than yesterday- dry roads, sunshine, but cold. Low of 7F at 06:00. Four hours from Hamel, Illinois to Davenport, Iowa and 45 minutes to delivery. Only thing is, delivery delayed to Monday morning, so I sit. I mention all this in the video. Had excellent shave this afternoon with a very nice little razor with wonderful Arkansas edge. Go ahead, watch the video.

 
Imagine a nice Spring day with the fresh scent of light lavender or morning glories wafting around you. That might help you get through 90 minutes of this video. Dedication to our Barber Dave for emotionally compelling me to take up the talcum powder brush.
