You are a funny guy - hypothetically.

Another valuable lesson is that facial hair grows back. In fact, some say that, hypothetically, your next beard will grow back fuller due to the landscaping you just did.

Hypothetically, I hope that's true!! And honestly, that sounds like it a distillation of life wisdom... "the facial hair grows back." Might have to borrow that for a future post! 🤣

You are at a good age for a nice, full beard. I had a circle beard/goatee for a few years--Vicki really liked it at the time. The morning trimming got to be too time consuming and boring. Back to clean shaven with an electric razor. You can use these without being so careful about cutting yourself. Now the facial hair is not attractive, mostly salt and a little pepper with irregular patches on my cheeks. Sometimes I go a few days without shaving, just to see how it looks, but the look in the mirror does not ever seem to improve.

Thanks Mike! If you've got 'em, I'd take some pictures of your circle beard/goatee days - maybe I'll file them away for inspiration for my own beard! 😉

P.S. - goatees always make me think of this video 😂 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4iFt-p5jL-c

If I stumble across one of the pictures with a goatee, I will send it. These would probably be so old, I will have to scan them.

Hi Casey,

So sorry about your beard, but a couple of good laughs were had 😆 I’s nice to see all your handsome face though if it’s just for awhile 😊

Did you cut your hair too, or is it just more “ruly” 🤔

❤️Love you❤️

For now, the hair stays! I don't know if I'd *quite* say that it's "ruly," but it is, shall we say, lively.
