    Wow that looks like a fantastic morning tour. I added this one to my tour list as well.

    Thanks Clint. This one should definitely go on your list. It was one of the most interesting distillery tours we've taken, and it's also complimentary. We took the Bushel to Bottle tour. There's a more in depth 1792 Estate tour that's offered in the warmer months. We'll probably return for that one at some point.

    Great job, Bruce. These are the kind of shaves that will get you hooked on shavettes!

    Andrew, congrats on picking up the Schick Injector Type O. Looks like it still has plenty of Kung Fu left in it.

    Happy 5-month birthday to Declan! I always enjoy seeing his beautiful smile.

    I’m thinking that the edge may have been rolled like Andrew said, and if that’s the case stropping will not bring them back. I’d be glad to look and see what is going on with the edges and rehone the razors for you to make sure you have a good experience with them both Joseph.

    I appreciate those of you who prayed for and encouraged me yesterday. I was dreading work today. This morning I met with my senior staff in a marathon 3 hour meeting to try and resolve some pretty significant issues. It was a exhausting and a bit contentious, but we were able to get everything out on the table, and begin to resolve some significant issues. Yesterday I thought I may end up losing one of my directors out of this; today I’m optimistic we can all move forward productively. Time will tell, but again, thanks for letting me vent, encouraging me, and praying for me.

    Neal...Picture if my razor I mentioned earlier today. As you can see it is missing the blade pressure spring which is broken at the retainer rivet. If you could get me some good pictures of your spring I would appreciate it. I may try to fabricate one out of brass or stainless steel.
