Felt like I've been sweating since I woke up today so I had to include some Osage Rub in my shave.

Picked up Gillette's Planet Kind cream at a discount store. I could abide the shampoo like scent, but disappearing lather and a burning feeling at the start of the third pass was no good. Won't be using this again. However I will keep the tin to put decent product in.

Very nice background. Is that a view from your home?

Hey, thanks for asking. Nope, how I wish my home is there. I was traveling for business and then for leisure (on a campervan) on the north island of New Zealand. Should have stayed longer...

Now you have me wondering what you do, what company you work for. The company I work for does have an office in Sydney Australia so I could go there if I'm willing to travel.

I'm very happy for you to have had the opportunity to spend some time there.

I've heard and seen nothing but absolutely beauty from New Zealand. I have to go there some day. I believe I will.
