Though there are a couple of cold-ish days in the forecast, spring is almost upon us after what turned out to be a pretty mild winter. With that in mind, I'm gearing up to shear both the Gunnar-man and myself, as we've both grown exceptionally shaggy. For me it's a heavy winter beard (somewhere between relief pitcher and ZZ Top member length), and for my poodle buddy everywhere but, as I just trimmed around his face occasionally, and allowed his body hair to grow wild. I think we both kind of enjoy our current states, but it will also be fun to do something to commemorate the change of seasons. It will also be kind of nice for me to rid myself of the periodic itchiness that such a beard causes, while for Gunnar, it won't suck when he stops dragging in bits of tree debris and such that end up velcroing (I just invented a verb) to his coat when he goes out.
