Today was finally my first chance to experience Floid! The menthol action is amazing and the smell is pretty good too... sort of an aged, grown up version of Booster Polar Ice. However, I'm not sure I would spring $35 plus shipping for a bottle since I have Polar Ice sitting on the shelf by my sink. This is something I will think about of course in due time. :)

Man, getting back to work is not easy this morning. A good shave with no irritation or nicks does help, however.:biggrin:

The fountain is in the backyard and the sound it makes is wonderful. We also have the plants in, finally. The backyard project we gave ourselves until April 30 to get done is now done, mostly.

It's now a fine place to enjoy a cup of coffee in the morning (which is what I did this morning) or a drink and a cigar in the evening. If I am a couple of minutes late? Oh, well. In Houston all I have to say is traffic was bad. That is never a lie.
