Besides my fathers 'Cigar Room' (just too good)... I'd go with my front porch. Me and the birds trade licks every night. I can't whiste very good but we get quite a good jam going.
I have a front porch on my second story in the City... I light two Tiki Torches and usually just either sit and enjoy a conversation while my Girlfriend also smokes a CAO Flavours or I just tool around the laptop, usually hunting for Cigar knowledge while I smoke
My favorite spot is on my patio, sometimes joined by my son who also enjoys a good cigar. It's great for relaxing and good conversation. Our winters don't lend themselves to outside smoking, so it looks like a trip to our one shop (Te Amo) to smoke in their establishment.
In my shop, with my feet propped up on my desk and a good television show on. Although, I am also partial to a nice night out on my back patio, watching the trees sway in the breeze.

@Hobbes86 you may want to look at the date on the last comment of a thread. Where you are new every thread will show that the comments are new; however, if you look, this thread had actually ended in 2009.
@Yakster I was thinking of starting a new thread so I could mention how I like smoking in my shop (which I just purchased and am in love with), then I thought I should probably search the existing topics before starting a new, but not actually new, one.

I was trying to avoid creating a redundant thread and I wanted to mention my new shop! What's a guy to do?

@Hobbes86 I'm guilty of necro'ing threads, probably guiltier than most for just the same reason, so don't worry about it. It's actually a very interesting topic. Care to share any pictures of your shop?
On the flip side, we get a lot of new members who dig up old threads trying to answer someone's question from 10 years ago. I've figured that this is because all the old messages are new to them. Another quirk that has shown up recently is that when these old posts are Necro'd, they show up for some members as unread until they make a post, even if they've read it or even marked all posts as read under the gear shaped settings icon. You may notice the occasional post with just . or ...---... in the body or the like, this is those members marking that thread as read.
So, yeah, keep on keeping on. Necroposting with good reason is cool, necroposting because you didn't realize the conversation died out years ago maybe not so much.
Oh, and ps, I forgot to tell you when I welcomed you to the forum that sometimes having a thick skin helps around here.

I appreciate the explanation and advice, @Yakster. I currently have no pictures of my shop and my "smart" phone doesn't cooperate well. Probably because I went with a cheap one so that I could spend more on cigars. If I do come up with any pictures I will post them.

My garage at work. No heat, but with the compressors it never gets below 55. A bit noisy though, otherwise I’d be on vherf a lot! And best of all, on weekends, it’s just me! Peaceful!
I like my sitting in my broken down recliner, on the enclosed back porch, looking out at timber on the back forty of the farm. Lots of birds including hawks, owls and bald eagles, the occasional coyote and other small animals.
Don't let the wife know what you spend on guns, ammo or cigars.
In my studio. 1300 sq ft on the ground floor and self built in 1982- 1983. I cut the trees and took them to the sawmill and worked at the sawmill as a "tailer" while the logs were sawed into 2x6 framing and posts and beams. Great place to work and smoke but no internet or screens so I cannot do herf up there.

Some nights after work I’ll light up something lean back in my chair, put my feet up, enjoy the cigar and “forget about life for a while” while staring at the ceiling.
Side note I very much want to make it by you one day. Just sit in a corner with my notebook and watch you do what you love. I want to gain knowledge while not bothering you and observe a true master.

Nice, but I am a bit concerned by the trike and large cage, 🙄
Ha! The trike is my youngest son's, he rides in circles around the shop when I am not smoking or using my table saw, car jacks, etc. The cage is for our cat, she resides in my shop full-time. I don't want her running around the neighborhood when I have the shop doors open.

The office portion of my shop. Which I call my study/smoke room/gym.
