Just as I promised.....I have returned!

​

I am happy to say I survived five days and four nights of heat, humidity, mosquitoes, attack squadrons of raccoons and a Denny's breakfast on the way back home today. All seems to be well. Well, nothing that Bactine and a hard scrubbing won't take care of. The only other misadventure involved my wife and one of our flashlight/stun guns. I had to retrain her on how to properly check it to make sure it was safe before hitting the "stun" button after a slight mishap. Well, not retrain her so much as pick her back up and make sure she still knew her name and all that. It's hard to be sympathetic and helpful when you're laughing your butt off, but I managed.

I shaved twice this past week. Once on Wednesday night at the campsite, and again tonight at home. Same setup for both. My Super Speed with a Voskhod, using a synthetic and D.R. Harris Marlborough shave stick. Great three pass shaves for a BBS both times. Easy, great travel kit, and I'd use it again anytime.

A bit of sunburn to treat and I'm ready to return to the real world. Vacation season is over. I have an early morning appointment to my "possessed" van looked at (and probably spend a fortune to fix) followed by my usual busy week. Hope you all had a great week and I'll catch up the best I can and take it from here!! Note to the Cartel security forces - any disciplinary reports you need written - do them yourself. These guys couldn't have been all that bad. Happy Monday!!

Triple SOTD post:
Over the last two weeks or so, ive been using arko almost exclusively, as well as testing out the proraso with the schick injector, and i must say that it works very well. I've noticed i dont need quite as much slickness when using an injector, so the proraso works perfectly. As for the Arko, its absolutely unbeatable. The slickness and lather it produces when face lathering is unbeatable, and the stuff lasts forever! Ive attached a photo showing how much ive used compared to a fresh stick in a four month period where i used it for a minimum of twice a week. Its my go to for speed shaves, and i find myself using it more and more lately.

Pre: Cold water splash

Soap: La Toja Stick
Razor: Eversharp H1
Blade: Schick Proline B
Post: Cold water rinse, Pashana Eau De Cologne

This has been my set up for the last three days whilst staying at my sister's.
The H1 is ideal for travelling as it has its own blade cover.
The Eau De Cologne is in a plastic bottle, I prefer glass but when on public transport, plastic is the safer option.
All in all a thoroughly effective and enjoyable set up but I'll be glad to get back to my own bathroom.
Happy Shaving one and all.
