Just wanted to thank Peter for hosting and chef Brad for all the delicious food. Pretty awesome how a cigar can get people from all across the country of all walks of life together to enjoy each other company. Great meeting everyone.
Thanks for the pics. Looks like a great time! Wish I could have been there. Who would have thought Larry was so camera shy? I hope everyone has a safe journey home.
Friends don't let good friends smoke cheap cigars.

I ate like a king, thanks to @avengethis and @Patrickbrick, drank some excellent beer and had some outstanding smokes. Thanks to St. @peter4jc for hosting us and Patrick for hosting the warmup on Thursday. It was so great meeting all of you. What a great weekend.
Thanks to everyone who came, and even to those who enjoyed it vicariously through this thread. Thanks for not trashing my house, and thanks for leaving me with what little sanity I have left. I had the easy part; all I had to was be here and enjoy, as opposed to driving for hours and hours to be here or spending hundreds on airfare. Plenty of guys dropped some ultra-groovy stuff on my for hosting; all unneccesary, but all aprreciated.
Thank you, Patrick for staying sober and softly spoken. And thanks to Patrick for putting so much into the herf, and to Brad who went way above and beyond. I'd do this again in a heartbeat, but not if Brad couldn't make it; you are a one-of-a-kind special brother.
This weekend reinforced what a great community this forum is, how laughably little the non-cigar world knows about us B/SOTL. Every one of you, I wish was living on my street. The hardest part of this glorious weekend is having to say goodbye to you all. Good thing Nick is still here to wean me off the fellowship.
This weekend was GREAT! This herf was the first time for me to meet half of this crew "in person". We've all known each other through the forum and vherf for years in most cases, so when we meet "in person" for the first time it doesn't feel like the first time, it feels like old times. The setting was beautiful. Thank you Peter for hosting. And thanks to Brad and Patrick for feeding us so deliciously well. (Too well really, I ate until I was miserably stuffed. I drank just a little but ended up hung-over from the food.) I want to say thank you to all of you for being there. Each of you made it memorable to me.
I have more gratitude to express than this phone keypad can say, I blame Brad for the food coma Saturday night, I'm glad that I was the one holding the sharpie so I didn't wake up to some new face art. So much to say, so many to thank, I'm awed and humbled by the generosity.

Even peters neighbors know I had a great time! Thank you all for putting up with me for a few days. Peter I especially would like to extend my thank you for hosting and starting fires to keep my skinny ass warm. And Brad my god that BBQ was amazing, I have a lot to learn. In closing, it was amazing to meet a few of you in person for the first time. Everyone else, well it was great to annoy you again. See most of you in 6 months.

Made it home last night. @Patrickbrick and @peter4jc, thank you for your hospitality. @avengethis, thank you for the best damned meat I ever did eat. @Usaf06 and @Patrickbrick, thank you for the incredible beer selection. And too everyone there, I thank you for making this such a memorable and enjoyable weekend. For many of you it was awesome to finally meet you, for others is was great to see you again. It was a good time.

Playing Tetris trying to get all the cigars that came back with me to fit in the winedor. More and more stuff is hiding behind the trays now, it's a tight fit.
What a trip, thanks again everyone for all the fun and especially Patrick, Peter, Brad, and Nick.

If y'all promise to behave as well again next time, we can start thinking about doing this again next year.
