Good morning Cadre! Hope you had a pleasant night.

It's been a weird morning so I thought I'd indulge in some Gavin Harrison and 05Ric. Hope you enjoy.



Great shave today! First use of the Moon Soap's "Havana". Nice scent and lather. Gonna give it a few more tries to get the water ratio correct. I'm slowly but surely turning back into a tallow snob. :oops:
Finished with a splash of vintage Avon "Everest" and a spray of Mont Blanc "Presence".

Hope you have a great day!

Good morning Cadre and a Happy Veterans Day to all my brothers here who served!

For today's "Morning Music" I'm going to feature songs from albums that got LOTS of play during my time in the Navy. Hope you enjoy!





Great shave this morning! Been a LONG time since I last used a boar brush. Definitely requires a different technique. And boy, that smell! o_O

Good morning Cadre! Hope you had a pleasant night.

Tired this morning. Didn't sleep well. Back pain kept waking me up and I kept having strange dreams when I did sleep. So in light of my strange, and at times disturbing nocturnal travels, here's some equally strange music for today's "Morning Music".



Great shave today. Went with Moon Soaps again but this time used their barbershop scent called "Union". To my nose it smells very similar to AdP Colonia. Very nice. The lather was fantastic as well. Very slick and provided a great base for a wonderful two-pass shave (with touch up). Finished with Pinaud Clubman. Excellent!

Hope you have a great day!
