Part of that new life was the search for a natural moustache wax to tame Mark's wild hairs. Every wax he had sampled was heavily perfumed and tasted bitter, ruining the flavor of hot drinks. Finally, dissatisfied with commercial moustache waxes, Mark decided to make his own.  Using beeswax, petroleum jelly, lanolin, and natural musk oil, Mark created Oregon Wild Hair Moustache Wax^®. It is lightly, pleasantly scented and does not spoil the enjoyment of tea and coffee.  Mark continues to create his moustache wax at home in small, handmade batches and Susan manages the distribution of the one-ounce tins. Their daughter, Shaula, maintains the web site and handles publicity while their son-in-law Brandon is their marketing consultant.

   As an artist, Mark brought his love of sculpture with him to Oregon as well. The natural skill that first appeared in high school grew into an impressive talent. More than 30 years later, he continues to sculpt in stone and metal.
