Your beard and 'STACHE are so over-the-top glorious that they just defy all attempts to praise. I somehow missed your posting of Aug. 28 but am glad to see the thread move back up with your efforts to do the tie-up and the stache trim.

In the rare event that it might be necessary for you to have to tie it up, I must say that it looks fantastic. But that beard needs to be shown in its fully glory whenever possible.

And thanks for sharing the band photos. The uncle has a great beard, too, and if he doesn't object, you must give us updates on his growth periodically, too.

Great family genes, for sure.
