Sat outside on a beautiful 38 degree night here in the Boston area and smoked 2 cigars: an absoultely beautiful Magic Mountain Maduro from a box that I put down 18 months ago and a Montecristo Peruvian Buena Fortuna Maduro. What made tonight special is that I thought that I was going to spend tonight alone, my wife is a geriatric nurse and got called in to do a 7-7 shift. My brother is up from Fort Benning after getting home from the sandbox and was staying with his wife's family in Lynnfield which is the town next to mine. His wife and kids do not get in until tomorrow when they drive in from Albany, NY where they were staying during his deployment. He called me and said that he would like to spend a couple of hours with his older brother. We sat out on the deck and smoked and did much damage to a bottle of Johnny Walker Black. I am going to get off now since he will be staying with me tonight with his in laws blessings. May all of you who have made me feel welcome since I joined get everything you wanted and have a blessed and healthy Christmas season. With best regards, Paul
