I finished up my July focus today. It will be hard putting this gear away, as I've enjoyed some fantastic two-pass shaves over the past month. Tomorrow I'll bring out a birth quarter Slim, a tuck of Feathers, and my Kent BK8 silvertip brush. I'll continue to work through a tub of C.O. Bigelow and a bottomless bottle (pit

It appears that these folks have been doing this for awhile. After completing a 100-year focus, I think they have it down. They serve every Saturday from March through November. It's one of our favorite places to eat in Louisville. We've been going since the 80s...back when I still had my hair and my sense of humor.
