Beat the Heat

I remember back this winter many of the gorillas here sharing the various ways they beat the winter blues / frigid cold to still enjoy a stogie. Well, now summer is here and the heat/humidity (remember I live in IN) is about unbearable. Since I don't smoke inside the house I'm wondering how others of you beat the heat to still enjoy a stogie during the summer.

Obviously I know I could go indoors (i.e. home, B&M, bar, etc), but I'm wondering what you all do besides the obvious to beat the heat.
 
I always wait till the late evening since it's 100 every single day...usually by 10pm it gets down to a bearable high 80s :cb
 
Mojito, a shady seat and light clothing. Later in the evening is preferable. 9:30 or so gives me just enough time. Now, sometimes the heat is not beaten. You just gotta suck it up and be a man. Damn it! You're smoking a cigar and drinking. What can be more manly?

Perhaps, I'll buy a kiddie pool and some little drink umbrellas for my mojito.

My favorite place to smoke... the pool. Not only can you hang out in the cool water when you are done you can swim a bit to help wash it off your face and it out of your hair.
 
Just behind the head honcho your answer lies...

I live in Canada.

Plus with 8 months of winter I try to soak up every ounce of sun I can get.
 
95 and humid in philly all week- i wait until nighttime, stay on the porch and have some ice water with my smoke.
 
Hahaha... beer will do that to you. Also, you end up in places you didn't expect.:D

I just sit under my porch and drink some water and let the cigar take control. I forget that its really damn hot.
 
I usually go to my fire house and open up the bay doors and smoke with my buddies sitting on the front bumper of the truck
 
No matter how you look at it anything you do in the summer is way better than trying to enjoy a cigar in the winter!!!:ss
 
Have a gin & tonic with the cigar. And keep a stiff upper lip. (gin & tonic is British.....never mind):ss
 
Live some place exotic (meaning very hot and very humid) for 3 or 4 years.

After several years someplace like Okinawa where in the summer and fall it is 95 degrees with 95 percent humidity by 7AM, even Texas summers don't feel ALL that bad.

It's been hotter than hades this year in Central Texas - but it's just a case of mind over matter. If its a great smoke, the heat just doesn't feel quite as hot.
