Handlebar Mustache at 1 year

Has it really been a year?  Well, if you look at all the things that have happened in my life, it is hard to believe that it has only been one year.

As I consider May 10, 2013 the day that the hairs under my nose would have emerged had I started from a clean shaven face, then May 10, 2014 is my mustache birthday.  And here is how it looks:

Please forgive my hot tired appearance and the mustache's lopsided grooming - it was a long hot day

Compare this to how I looked at the end of May last year

It's been a great year and I plan to continue handlebaring.
