The Fasting Wolf
The wolf was fasting from shaves during Lent. I wanted to try an eleven day shave. The Grande did not like an eleven day and neither did the Lupo. Six to nine days are most efficient with seven day shaves being my sweet spot. This was the last comparison to the Fatip Grande that I was interested in trying out. I’m all lined up for five March Madness weekly Sunday shaves. I look forward to refining my weekly shaves as I continue dialling in the Lupo. Today’s first pass face and head were less close, but not quite as close as I’m used to. Because of the eleven day growth. Even though the second passes felt extremely close. Extra buffing was required to get the shave I wanted face and head. I had a little white head on my left cheek. The Lupo stroked through and drew blood. It was the first blood the wolf had seen, I hope he doesn’t acquire a taste for blood. A septic stick swipe sealed the crater. An excellent shave with a mild warmness in some of the buffed areas after an alum application. I got the cue ball shine and I’m happy. Looking forward to the romp through FFFMM.
Happy Shaves
The channel at the foot of our property as well as the marsh or bayou behind us freezes up during winter. It is not unusual to see coyotes travelling through. Today one decided to take a break on our rocks. I thought it was a dog. My wife insisted it was a coyote. She sent the picture to our local Naturalist and Terry confirmed it was a coyote. He said that the blond coats are common to our area. He also said it wasn’t unusual to see them about in daytime during the mating season. We hope it didn’t like our rocks too much. We definitely don’t want any coyotes helping us with our gardening.
We’ve heard that they don’t like the smell of Tiger Balm. We’re going to spread some on the rocks and hope they give us a pass, as they travel through. We don’t see them once the ice is out. Just occasionally roadside coming and going over the causeway.
