Tom, thanks for dropping by my thread and welcoming me to the board. Seeing your avatar from your posts leaves the impression of one of the most magnificent, and finest beards on this board. After having the chance to read through all of your journey, it is clear that the man behind the beard is even more impressive!  My belated congratulations on 3 years of bearding, and sincere thanks for everything you do to make this board so great. Cheers!
