Red Beards

James has been admiring Simmers' beard recently, I think it's because he's missing his own facial hair. So here they are together for some fun. I'm now even more impressed by the size of Simmers' beard as I remembered James' as being HUGE, but it seems that Simmers' is even HUGER.

Sailing near Unalaska, Aleutian Islands, Summer 2005.

The beard in Mongolia.

Simmers beard may not clear customs when he returns to Canada.

That is some serious hedgerow action! Great shots.

OK, I'll admit it: mine was a stick-on. It was a fake all along. Sorry, Simmers, you win.

Permission granted to use the photo! It's almost a month old by now, I think. The hugeness has expanded faster than the universe...hence the redness(unless you're directly in front of it..in which case it appears blueish).
A couple of recent whisker quotes:
"my beard is getting split ends."
"my mustache just poked me in the eye."
"JOHN ARE YOU IN THERE?"-B
"B can I borrow your hair brush?"
"hey, I don't need a mirror to look at my beard anymore!"
"Is that taste from yesterday?"

I gotta admit, the gritty sailor look is pretty hard to beat! Adjusting your rigging on the high seas with whiskey glass in hand...pure gnarl.

Wow - good whisky spotting simmers!

I assumed it was urine Snownerd was drinking, from being on the high seas for so long.
