    Formatting on mobile is so ass.

    First shave on the road while I'm away on my long weekend! I don't tend to like shaving away from home because I just don't feel as comfortable in other bathrooms - never know where to put my soap or razor, if the counters are clean, how the water reacts to my soap, etc.

    In lieu of a bowl I slurry-lathered again and while it worked well enough it wasn't as great as at home. Maybe the water hardness had something to do with it. I'm no chemist. But as I'm fond of saying: a good enough Mammoth lather is a great anything-else lather. Tusk provides.

    There'll be a few more road shaves coming so I better get used to this!
