Somewhere down in Texas
Just finished a leg of lamb supper at a historic resturant in Salado. Went out back and shot my new pistol this morning. I got a Ruger Mark III Hunter. Shoots great! About light up a nice cigar and relax for a bit.

Which restaurant did you go to? My daughter is the sous chef at Inn on the Creek. I just smoked a house cigar from a shop in San Angelo. Not sure the name of the shop or the smoke. A colonel something. Smoked a HC Connecticut earlier with my daughter, she smoked a Punch churchill maduro.


MERRY CHRISTMAS BotL!¡!

stealth,

We had supper at The Stagecoach Inn. Typically for Christmas dinner we go to my parents house in Harker Heights, and cook lobster and crablegs. Been a tradition with us for years. Dad past away a year ago the day before yesterday. Last Christmas we were all shell-shocked. This year we decided to start a different tradition. Mom came over here first thing this morning and we all opened gifts. Hung out and went and ate. I guess I'm the man of the family now that dads gone.

Pretty windy and cold here. A nasty front has blown in and may kill my cigar plans. North Texas is getting snow. I may get out my deerstand heater later and go out on the back porch for a short smoke. Mmmmm, short smoke. Partagas Short. Mmmm......

We are doing steaks and tails on the grill in a bit. I'll huddle around the fire and smoke then. La Gloria Cubana Mī Amorè
 
LGCs are such wonderful smokes. They have never dissappointed me.

Well, I just realized that I don't have the cojones to smoke tonight. The 32 degree temp isn't the problem though. It's the high wind that makes it feel in the upper teens and low 20s that I have a problem with. Oh well, maybe tomorrow night.

Yeah, I smoked another one tonight. An Oliva V Melanio robusto. Nice short smoke. I got a good heavy blanket, sweats and an Underarmor hoodie to hide under.
 
Ha ha, you guys are killing me pretending that it is cold. We went to my sons place for Prime Rib on Christmas Eve this year. We try to do a different kind of meal each Christmas, last year it was duck, this year it was beef. I do have a nice turkey though, she will be eaten for New Years Day.

BTW, it will be -20C tomorrow, and I intend to smoke a nice Black Pearl Rojo!!
