    I see you're 30 miles from me. I'm in Mooresville. Have you been to Casa de Montecristo?

    Coolidors are far less complicated...but sounds like you'll fit right in with @Bob_Luken and @Yakster who macgyver everything from coffee filters to bird feeders....

    Never been. If Mr KC Kasper hits good traffic on one of his Scranton trips then we will meet up there as he stays the night in Statesville.

    Yeah I’m 20 min from Charlotte and 20 from Concord, right beside The old Reeds Gold mine. But I work in Mocksville

    ^ if you get out this way stop by for a smoke. I wouldn’t be able to go back to work until October.

    😂 I may even cut the grass and weedeat.

    Nice. Casa de Montecristo is what was the old JR in Statesville. But rebranded. And it has a cocktail lounge.

    Smoked an eiroa dark last night. It was pretty good. I felt like I was getting too much airflow and not a very consistent burn however.

    Smoking a camacho criollo tonight. I'm digging this one.

    ^^^ Funny thing, that is an example of what I was saying about the San Cristobal. I got two of those Don Carlos a couple days after he died. I bought them out of a humidor, at a B&M in Nashville, out of a freshly opened box. I smoked one that day, and thought "Rats. This is not what it's cracked up to be. I could have bought 5 Jericho Hill's with that money."

    The other went into the humidor for a few months. Outstanding cigar!

    Interesting. I'll have to give San Cristobal another shot then. I'm trying to load this humidor up quick so that I'm not digging into immature inventory every night. Patience is a virtue and I don't have it!

    9pm here. They're pushing my first drink out way too far into the evening.

    Sure, but do they stay in bed? How come we hear them asking for juice and bargaining to stay up later while you're vHerfing?

    At least mine are old enough to share a whisky with. :D

    p.s. sheltering in place with your grown kids has it's own special set of problems regarding your liquor collection. It's probably a good thing my daughters haven't taken to smoking cigars or I'd be fighting over the better sticks in my humidor.

    This is exactly the reason we say "stop growing"

    Update. Both f****** in bed 😂
