    Oh I see.....what confused me is he's lying on a section that is a different color from the rest of it.

    I stuck with the Haslinger marigold again today. I keep saying that I'm going to finish it, and I keep not doing it. Just going to have to use it more often.
    My3.5 passes went smoothly enough. Anoth weeper on the chin. Otherwise a first-rate shave. Finished with Avon Blue Blazer. I bought this sometime last year, and never got around to using it. Rick @RyX used it yesterday and jogged my memory, so I got it out. I like the scent, even if it could be just a little stronger. It's a keeper.

    We managed a little sunshine this morning. It's giving way to more storms as I write this, of course. But I did at least get the lawn cut while the window was open.

    Robert, those flowers are so intense. Beautiful and a great shave. Really enjoying the pictures you have been posting lately.

    Thanks, Andrew. I'm not sure of the 'resort' you referenced? The pic was taken in my dining room.

    Not sure if this has been talked about on here today, Gary, but the Cedar used for lining Humidors is called Spanish Cedar. It is very rot resistant, hence its preferred usage. I have made a few Humidors and was always told to use this wood.

    Shavette Fu time...watch me, grasshopper.

    Very nice! Do you get good lathers from the C & E soap, Gary? I loved the older formula, but the last puck I got (Sandalwood, approx. 3 years ago) would NOT lather. Ended up being a nice shower soap.
    I suspect with your top tier den, Jim, that a daily randomizer will do very well! Great colours as always.
    More PAA! You have enough of them, Jim, that I should probably ask you for your favourites and/or a recommendation.
    Congrats on the new soap, Clint. It is always nice when a new product is a good one. I had Blackbeard in the Rustic base. It was ok performance-wise and Meh scent-wise.
    99 is good, Joe! Love the '49 as well.
    Congrats on the great find and honing work, Blair! Very cool. Thoughts on the 1445 scent?
    Love that brush handle, Joseph. I like the length of it, it appears very comfortable to use.
    Hump day! Awesome shot.
    Getting SWMBO's approval on a scent is always a good thing as well. Have those Kmart blades worked out?
    Well, I may get a great view of the Rockies here, Robert, but I don't get flowers like that in June around here. Just beautiful. Your yard?

    Thanks, Jason! Honestly, the Omega 49 truly is the best buy in shaving brushes.
