    Razor: Thiers-Issard Super Gnome Extra
    Brush: Hembree Derlin Paragon Boar 25 mm
    Lather: Lather Bros. Calle Ocho
    Aftershave: PAA Black Bot
    Additional Care:
    Omega Alum
    Declaration Grooming Aftershave Liniment - Darkfall
    Stirling Unscented Glacial Balm

    Another great shave with the Lather Bros. Calle Ocho. Today I paired it with the PAA Black Bot which is another Musk forward scent. The longevity of the splash is a bit longer than that of the AV Musk o used yesterday.

    My first straight, the TI super Gnome, once again. Performed flawlessly throughout the three passes I enjoy with my daily shaves.

    I spent part of my day cooking for both dinner and the missus’ upcoming lunches that she will take to work. Which the summer like temperatures I decided to fire up the smoker to make a pastrami.

    As of this posting, it is still in the smoker. Most likely it will be on there overnight.

    Hope you all had a great day gentlemen.

    :happy097: I is just fun to watch Joe operate. Can’t say I blame him as our waitress is extremely personable and wonderful on the eyes.

    We have not figured out when we will get to Florida this summer. We have a trip to Europe, Paris-Malta-France schedule for the missus belated birthday gift. I would like to get down there before September.

    Wonderful shave and historical perspective on the Fraser shaving cream. To bad the pandemic lead to it demise.

    regarding the photo, I would get the message that the file was to large if I hit the large file button, however, I learned that if I hit the medium or small tab I did not have an issue.

    Lovely write up, John. Appreciate the comment about mixed badger and boar brushes, however this has me on the acquisition trail again. Oh dear! I am still too easily influenced.
    Also nice to know I can leave some shaving soaps on the shelf for quite a while and they can still be revived!
