    2 passes. Face lather. Excellent shave.


I shaved late today following a morning that was busier than expected and a business lunch that resulted in me saying "Yes" to more consulting work. It wasn't even a lunch with alcohol. I should have said "No, I have pressing shaving activities to attend to.". Oh well.

Stirling's dupe of Silver Mountain Water complements the real thing very well. The real EdP is more detailed as you might expect. Really subtle and warmer than the name suggests. This might be my favorite Creed Scent except it is far too sophisticated for me. I live in a city nicknamed Crab Town after all.

I think that the Frio 14 was fun to use today.

Hey, give Crab Town some credit... The closest Wally World is 30 minutes away!
