“There's no goin' back to that
I'm so numb, can't even react
Didn't say it's not ok
But we aren't dealin' the same way
I ain't tellin' you a secret
I ain't tellin' you goodbye”


(Well, it’s finally over. All good things…You know the rest.

I have been fortunate enough to have participated in the last three Moustache Mays and the last Whiskerino. I have thoroughly enjoyed every second of every minute that I’ve shared with all of you wonderful gentlemen and women (Never forget the lurkers). I’ve made some friends, witnessed some joyous moments, and a few tragedies. The sharing is what makes it so special. As I said at the end of whiskerino, it’s impossible to spend this much time with such wonderful and creative people and not be bettered by the experience.

This year was extra special because Jill and I worked on almost every image together. She is an excellent photographer. We’re doing Sad Faces in this image because it’s sad to lose something you love, but we were cracking up laughing between every shot almost all month long. It was fun to share this last ride with her.

I of course want to thank mackle for the venue and for his wisdom and patience as curator. He is the classiest of the classy. But the site is nothing without the participants. I would truly like to thank every single person that posted a picture or a comment during these years. Your sharing of yourselves has been endlessly enjoyable. I truly love what these “facial hair” websites have brought to my life. Thanks for being awesome. I consider all you brothers. I will miss this, but I will never forget it. Enjoy everything that your next adventure brings. Peace.)

Well, I find myself feeling particularly sad seeing this image. I have to thank you for all of the truly supportive and enthusiastic comments, and the energy and fun you brought to this. So much of this experience has been crossing paths with remarkable people, and you, my friend, are truly one of them. All the best to you.

Mackle says:
You guys are great. Thanks for all your positivity, musical insight and just all around goodness. I'm happy to have provided a place to have encountered folks such as yourself. It does a mind well to know that the world isn't full of idiots - the really good ones are out there (such as yourself), you just gotta make a weird Moustache place for them to come gather.

Hodges says:
Oh where oh where do I start with you. I have once told you as well you are an old souls trapped in a young mans body. You look like a hard ass but are probably one of the most sincere, caring people I know. I have enjoyed all of the time we have hung out together in here and you picture that I clamebuted is still one of my all-time favorites! (your version!) you and I WILL play frisby golf one of these days and then drink several cold ones afterwards. Jill is lucky to have you. I wish you the best and look forward to seeing you soon!

PS Jill's shirt is killer!

I can hardly think of anyone willing to pour so much into this community as you have in the past few experiences. It's been an encouragement to me.
I have family in Chesapeake and when I get to Va Beach again I'll drop you a line so long as you tell me how to reach you.

Easy Rider says:
@thatguy Thanks for all of the positive and insightful comments you have left for me .... and everyone else! Sometimes its too easy to just blast off a cookie-cuter comment just so we feel good that we touched everyone. You took the time to convey a heart-felt message and I would like you to know how much that meant to me! May God bless you in ways you cannot imagine!

hale says:
You've been a major force through Moustache May and Whiskerino. I have been so impressed by your kindness and sincerity.

Don't feel bad, but we did meet in Nashville, though very briefly. I think so at least. It was so brief, now I am doubting my memory. Either way, in the future we will share some drinks. The location doesn't matter, just that it will happen.

Take care brother.

I'm glad I got to meet you. I'm double glad that I had the perfect excuse to say "Hey, there's thatguy!" and truly mean it.

It's been amazing participating in these things, hasn't it? In any case, take care and look me up if you're ever in California (or Maryland, in case I'm visiting my homeland).
