Congratulations Sheriff. I wish I would have known that was you! This has become a hair raising competition with literally dozens of fine beards. I think the final count was 172 beards, with 107 from Carson City, the rest from mostly Virginia City. Some of you may know Arnie Biefeldt (sp?) , he took first with the longest beard. Phil Olson was trolling around incognito in jeans,jacket and dark sunglasses. Our Nevada Senator, Dean Heller, took third in best groomed. It was a fun day and a great competition!
