Epic Beard 2012/2013

[marshd1000]

Last year you may remember that I grew a 5 month beard before going to Alaska.  I ultimately trimmed it up and even shaved it off since then.  So now that I start a new job at Boeing on Friday, I figured that I can get away with growing out my beard to a 6 month length or possibly even a terminal beard, unless it is a safety concern.  But at the least I would love to grow a beard like fellow bald, (but not sly) guy, Dr Andrew Weil.  So here is a pic of my Alaska beard and a couple of Dr Weil.

I don't know how you could bring yourself to shave off that great beard.  I couldn't.

I shaved it off because I was desperate to find a new job  A better job meant more to me than keeping the epic beard.  But now I get a chance to do it again.  I am hoping to keep it this time.  Or if I trim it down, I may not go short but to a thicker, medium length

Marsh, that's a keeper! I hope mine can be half as thick as that....but if I can get it a little wider, I can live without the thickness...in your case, it was worth the wait!

That is pretty epic! Not sure mine will get that big but who knows?

Glad to hear your back on the beardwagon... I love seeing pics of your epic beard, and I am sure that this one will be just as epic!

If things don't work at Boeing you sure could be a Santa.

Looks like the crew from "Duck Dynasty".

That was a fantastic beard, indeed. Understandable why you had to shave it, but I'm sure it wasn't easy... Hope to see it return in full swing!

Beardwagon. That's a great expression, Beardman.

Thanks! I was quite proud of myself 

Although in reading your quote I realised in my haste I typed the wrong you're... I guess we can't be perfect all the time!

Well, here is my beard at over 4 months old.  I would at least like to keep it at this length.  I know some people in my life don't like it.  But now my job is not a issue.  I am hoping to at least grow it out a couple more months.  Maybe even more.  But I do like the fact this it is not looking shaggy yet.  Although I do admire the terminal length beards that are shaggy.  But don't know if I could do that myself!

[Sir Harry]

Very nice, Marsh!
