11 Feb 2012: Need a winter haircut anyone?

Greetings from still cold, but sunny Shenyang!
I don't have alot to report today...but I do have some interesting pictures to share.  Rod was out and about this week, and as usual, he brings home some interesting shots...in this case, it's all about a haircut.  Not just any haircut...this is a short story of a barber who has very low overhead and seems to always have customers.  Now, Rod tells me he didn't get his hair cut there...and I believe him...I think!
This barber sets up shop every day outside...he has chair, a sheet of plastic, steel razor blade, a bowl and some water.  In the winter, he also has a fire going.  The pictures say it all!
The barber and the customer in Shenyang middle of winter (yes, that is remnants of snow on the ground!)

A good close shave...Shenyang style!
Hard to top those 4 pictures with words!  Next time you men look at yourself in the mirror for your morning shave...think of this little entry from Shenyang, China!
