Tom,
Thank you, I am fortunate in that my beard is very well behaved, even with more length. I think that's part of the reason that nobody noticed I was even growing it bigger until near the end of the challenge. Btw, it was my dad who finally noticed the change. As to the moustache, I vary my moustache length all of the time. I like it trimmed and longer/bushier too, so I mix it up regularly. I do have it quite long in a lot of the pics especially the Dec. 28th batch.
Hope you had a fantastic holiday season and Happy New Year to you, too.
- Fred

Bweade,
Thanks, A few years back, they redesigned the banner at the top of the Beardboard. They asked for submissions from members to create the new banner. I sent in a couple of pics and was fortunate enough to be chosen with the other five gentlemen above. It was, and still is a great honour.
All the best for the new year,
- Fred
