Clear & cooler here this morning, 27ºF/-3ºC at 06:00. We got a drop of rain yesterday, but that was all. The sun's back today and we may see 60ºF/15ºC by this afternoon. The Garland was on duty this morning - an incredibly smooth shaving razor with a simple, unprepossessing style that appeals to my eye. Have a good Friday folks.

Unfortunately this was my last shave with the Pumpkin 3.14 from a few days ago.....I love this scent of this soap but it really does not like me back. The Slant and Voskhod performed well I think...but the burning face made it hard to tell.
