    The Charles River originates in Hopkinton Mass. (about 25 miles west of Boston) and runs eastward through 23 cities and towns in eastern Massachusetts before emptying into Boston Harbor. And yes, it does separate Cambridge and Boston,

    Great shave Ron.

    I have a Yaqi adjustable on the way in. Looking forward to giving it a drive. Everyone that has one seems to like them.

    Take care.

    Hi Friends,

    Here is my Sunday Shave (10.04.2022)

    CAA247E5-F10F-4B49-BD62-776E8686ED9C.jpeg
    Razor: Gillette Fat Handle Tech // Blade: Personna Med. Prep. // Soap: Mikes Natural Soaps Vetiver // Brush: Jayaruh Synthetic // Aftershave: Pinaud Clubman Special Reserve

    Here i am back again. The virus had me in its claws…now i am fine again.

    No words needed for this excellent shave. It was fantastic. Gentle, smooth and all you can ever imagine from a great shave.

    Enjoy your shaves, take your time and stay safe and healthy.

    Greetings

    Yaqi TFC adjustable works well for myself and I bought a second one at the Live sales, maybe some one made a mistake entering the price and so I pulled the buy trigger an another TFC gun metal model, the all chrome model sold for regular price as they usually do on new razors so I'm thinking a mistake was made. To top things off I won a razor on the live show lottery also, just one of those nights of smiling.(cheap entertainment evening:shocked003:)

    I ordered the gun metal. I like the contrast. The live shows are fun. You can pick up some great brushes at some nice prices.

    Take care.
