• Prep: Coffee and a shower
• Razor: Merkur - 34C HD
• Blade: Feather HI Stainless
• Brush: Perfecto Badger
• Lather: Lacoupe - Argon Oil Complex Bar Soap
• Post Shave: Aqua Velva - Classic Ice Blue AS

Sitting in a motel out of town this week. Trying to decide which shaving soap to use so someone else didn't already use it. As I was showering, I thought why not use this Lacourse bar soap. Surprisingly enough a very pleasant shave. Had good lather and very slick. Am I ready to give up my regular stuff, no but still a good shave.

When I travel I usually throw in my Pinaud Clubman. As I was unpacking my bag last night I noticed I forgot it. So I made a run to Walmart. Among the weak offerings I noticed the Aqua Velva. My dad always kept some of this on the shelf. Kinda like finding an old friend. As I splashed it on this morning it brought back memeories of Dad.
