It has been a long time coming but my wife and I moved in late January and are finally settled into our new house. Along with that came my new office/smoking room. I added a vent in the ceiling and an air purifier and it works like a charm. We had our house on the market for about a year and then we were "homeless" for about six months until we completed this purchase! Here it is...(well, the important part)

On the desk is a tribute to you guys! It is all of the notes from the packages I have received from you guys. Thanks!!

    Nice room. I think you need to addy up so we can welcome you into the new place.

    That looks fantastic! I love the wood floors. It must feel good to have your own house again- especially when it has a herf'n room!

    Too cool! Always wanted to smoke inside.. My wife would shoot me if I did!

    I must say I was a little concerned about the smoke going into other parts of the house but I was careful not to put too many things in the office that would absorb the smell. The hardwood floors were already there so that helped. The two chairs (both given to me by friends) are "leather". The furniture is "wood". The rug was questionable but I thought it fit well so I went with it. We had pocket doors installed and they have been great to keep the smoke where it is supposed to stay!!

    Good job Ben. That is one very nice smoking room / office. (See? Smoking room is listed FIRST.) I'm inspired.

    Yeah, I am more excited about the smoking room. I do work from home about two days a week but being able to smoke in doors is very exciting to me. PS, if anybody is ever in Northern KY look me up. Zach (OchoZacho) and I get together a minimum of once a month for some cigars and bourbon!!
