Been A While...

...so how's ever'body doing?

Got a new job in Jersey working as a brakeman on the railroad. It's about a 300 mile round trip, and I'm bunking with a friend during the week/returning home on the weekends for now. Looking to move around New Years. Job's out of Swedesboro so need to make a cigar date with some of you locals @Sleddog46 @webmost @ForMud etc once things settle down to a dull roar. 

Anyhow, just wanted to drop a line. Been lurking and smoking still, just not posting much. Hope you're all doing well.

    Great news, Mark.  Hope it works out and life treats you right.

    I was at Gettysburg yesterday.  Any time you're back around and want to hike the fields and hills, lmk.

    I like Oliva and Quesada (including Regius) a lot.  I will smoke anything, though.

    Yeah it's definitely a job right up my alley. Company I work for is very family oriented and they go above and beyond to treat their employees well. I think I've finally found my 30 year job. 

    Doug @Sleddog46 I will take you up on that offer sometime very soon! Been wanting to meet you for a good while buddy. Still have your number so I'll keep you in the loop. 

    Eric @Martel would love to get together again soon, my friend. Taking some vacation time later in October to play with steam trains. Might have an extra day to get together and smoke a few. I'll keep ya posted.
