In a good cause

As some of my readers will know, in the Navy part of my life, I have been raising money for the Terry Fox Foundation by participating in the Great Canadian Head Shave. I promised I'd even shave off my beard if I personally raised more than $1,000.

Well, the $1,000 mark was easily passed. All told, the Captain and I raised $2966.17 (don't ask about the 17 cents). Then, as we finished, one of the young officers offered to shave his head for what he could raise right there on the drill deck. That extra $50 put us over the $3,000 mark.

If there is anyone who'd like to kick in a little extra, it isn't too late.

Now, here are some pictures.

Before




And here we go




Almost there



After - and all in a good cause.
