    Good evening friends!

    Warm day here today, mid nineties. Cool shower and a menthol Monday shave was a welcome end to a hot day. Nice DFS, with some warmth from the alum on my neck. The house is nice and cool and I'm clean and refreshed.

    Have a great night fellas! [​IMG]

    Both pleasure and sad. Going to Colorado..first by myself to tour around bits of the city of Golden(where I'm considering a move to in the future), then up north a bit for a visit with my cousin, then my sister's family will meet me there, we go to Rocky Mtn. National park and scatter our Mom's ashes in the beauty of the mountains.

    My fave safety design. Great razor. Not for the careless or hurried.

    Indeed. I get mine from Walgreens, though I ask them to order for me.

    Thanks Andrew! Yep, fresh from the Maggard’s Meet. Lots of samples to try out, plus some purchased, some PIF’s. I’ll be busy for awhile.
