SOTD 28 February-5 March 2016

Among the shaves of the day will be an every fourth year Leap Day shave.  Make it special.

The rocks are fossilized mollusks that are just offshore. When the tide goes out the entire area is a graveyard of shell fossils.
Had a great two pass shave with the Blackbird/Feather combo, Dr. Jon's Classic whipped up with the Alluminati, soothed by the Gentlemen's Refinery AS. I have a pretty limited palette while I'm traveling, but I hope the setting makes up for the redundancy.

Chris, your photos are looking great!

Freddy, brilliant idea!

February 29th special shave.

I must find that hunk of flint and do some serious knapping.

Chris,

The scenery makes a great background for an extraordinarily beautiful brush.

Thanks Celestino and Mickey! Here's one more from yesterday.

Normally, this SuperSpeed would be too mild for me, but this one is a keeper. My oldest daughter sent me a text a bit ago asking, "You're into old shaving stuff, right?" To which I quickly responded, "Well, YEAH! Why? What did you find?" So, this razor will be used just for "thinking of me." As my kids get older and have kids of their own, I sometimes feel like they don't even hear what I'm saying. This proves I was wrong! (Please don't tell my wife that I said I was wrong!)

What a nice shave with warm fuzzy feelings of family.
