    Wonderful picture, Jim! Yet another PAA offering that has piqued my interest.
    Congrats on the new brush!
    I'm a fan of Grizzly Bay brushes, and the knots he uses are fantastic.

    Interestingly, even though the ringleader of the anti cookie group was in attendance, there was no ice cream. I am now officially calling the ice cream as fake propaganda that doesn’t exist.

    In my defense, he didn’t shut me up for long. And he conceded that a mix of Texas, St. Louis, and Kansas City style BBQ like I make sounds awesome.

    Thanks, Clint. I am doing well. Just wish I was at the Meet Up this weekend instead of pulling a 6pm Friday to 6pm Sunday shift answering phone calls from arrested drunks...

    To Neal @NCoxSTL and everyone at the Meet Up, it looks like you're having a great time so far. Keep it up and do keep posting the reports and photos so the rest of us can enjoy it vicariously!

    I was loaded up this morning! Beautiful brush made by @jtspartan. @Keithmax arrived bearing gifts, a pain stick with Feather Professional blades and a beautiful fan, hand delivered from Seoul! @NCoxSTL provided Stirling gift certificates, "Lynn Abrams World of Straight Razor Shaving" DVDs, which will come in handy now that I have a straight from @Drygulch, and let's not forget the cookies. @ezlovan supplied the 2019 Blood on Steel soap and aftershave sets. He even made sure my wife got a set too!
    The best part was meeting up with a wonderful group of people that I already knew as friends! [​IMG]
