    david of central florida Rhubarb Rubber

    Today
    Hot Water wash
    T-400/ custom silvertip
    Sitting Bergamot Lavender
    Muhle R-41 Rose Gold handle
    Persona lab (3)
    Razorock Essential oil of lime
    Dr Teal's Lavender Body lotion
    Today I didn't reinvent the wheel. I did,however, use some very nice elements. The T-400 felt and performed perfectly. Stirling Bergamot Lavender is a very nice scent. The R-41, three long slow passes. A double of balm(lime) and lotion(lavender). I feel smooth, soft, and aromatic. I didn't reinvent the wheel, but i feel like I used them like Dale Earnhardt.
    Hope y'all did as well, or better. 20180728_121727_resized.jpg

    The Nectar Amissa made excellent lather. Billows of it.

    The scent, however, was faint. For that reason, I’m going to prefer Black Tea and Vanilla, which in contrast has a strong, pleasant scent.

    The Local Gent California Barber aftershave was excellent, as always. I’m now trying to rub as much as I can into the goatee to preserve the scent as long as possible.

    One minor cut, in the usual place, under the starboard jaw (looking out from inside) due to the usual attempt to shave against the grain in that awkward spot. It was a landing issue due to a hugely wrong angle and sloppy approach. That, in turn, was caused by an attitude of ebullience from getting that far into the shave (the very end of the second pass) without injury. Hubris, followed by nemesis, as always, and as predicted by the ancient Greeks.

    It has been fun for sure Perry. They really do it right for the family. The only bad thing is that I think my wallet will need medical attention after this visit! My gang is getting older, but my daughter is only 12 and she still gets into the younger stuff. Most of my family is not into thrill rides so it works out fairly well for everyone, but me and my older son like to ride all the coasters. I really like Universal, but most of the rides are too extreme for my wife, and my younger son does not like these rides at all. It is not as fun when half the group sits out.
