Hey All,
My name is Derek and been smoking cigars (1 per week) for less than a year now and absolutely love it. I'm in my final year at California State University Sacramento studying Economics and can't wait to graduate in May! I've been visiting these forums for many weeks now, and finally decided to join and enjoy the abundance of information on these forums from many knowledgeable people. My favorite cigar currently is a Padron 1964 Anniversary Exclusivo and the Cohiba Esplendidos and look forward to spending many countless hours on cigarbid trying to fill my new Humidor.
My older sister bought my first humidor for Christmas and i love it, although the patience required for seasoning is painfull lol. She also bought me a Zippo blue ligher, Xikar cutter, and a Diamond Crown Humidifier and some smokes for my new humidor.
I'll get some pictures of my new humidor after it's done seasoning in the next couple of days.
Look forward to meeting you all
Smoke up!:ss

Welcome to the Jungle, sounds like you are already working on a nice collection. :tu
Save yourself time and get a cooler, or just spend the big money on a cabinet.

Hiya fellow Nor Cal soul! I love waking up to a good cigar and Good Day Sacramento. It's the only morning show where you laugh with them and not at them.
Happy herfing, soulful smoking, and a beautiful new year!

Hey Bob, Sac Town doesn't have just any TV. They've got IMAX, so take it easy on us Valley Boys. We've got class too! :cb

Welcome, I am up north of you in Shasta County. When you get a chance pop in on Pedro and his son Pierre in Citrus Heights @ Casillas Cigars (http://www.clubstogie.com/vb/showthread.php?t=85299), small shop but friendly.

Hey there, Casillas Cigars looks awesome from your pictures and story. I live on the eastern side of Sacramento near highway 50, I'm going to head out there in the next few days and see if i can't pick up a few to bring to the Herf on the 12 of Jan. They look delicious and I'm always up to try something new.
Thanks,
Derek

Yup, definitely a North Bay guy, I go to school and spend most of my time farther north in Sacramento, but frequentely visit Petaluma just north of San Francisco a few times a month.
Thanks to all for making this a warm welcome, and can't wait to share my experiences and stories with you all.
