Good shot Dave! If only one could just open the paper today and somehow be in that time!

Thanks Cash, it is a pretty big thing here, they have re-enactments, food , music, bars are transformed into speakeasies downtown, and everyone dresses in period garb, vintage car shows, etc. It is a fun time. Alas I am stuck at home during yard work LOL, but it is a all weekend event so maybe this evening, or tomorrow
have a great weekend my friend.

SHAVE FOR MONDAY JANUARY 19TH, 2015

​

Soap: Le Pere Lucien Vetiver-Lavander
Razor: Mühle R41 with MR8 handle - It is a beast
Blade: Gillette Platinum - 1st use
Brush: artisan from "Artesania Romera", the "Red Barberian", Manchurian Finest 28x53
Balm: Korres
Aftershave: Le Pere Lucien

RESULT:
The Le Pere Lucien is an awesome soap, it surprises me every time I use, specially this one since as you go along foaming, different scents can be detected, sometimes only lavender, other only vetiver, others a mixture of both, it is a pleasure to create the foam and apply it to the face since you don't know what great aroma you are going to get

The razor, the R41 is a beast, I call it "The Rambo" because it let you know who is shaving you and sends you a message "careful man, if you make I mistake I am here to cut you". However, as everybody knows, it provides the best closed shaves in the market.
