That's been the color on all of my cigar pairs in 2021

Mine were a pretty uniform chocolate brown when I got them but they've been lightening up. I think this is 10 or so wears.

Gentlemen, been a while. TSM had a special delivery for me today with some cigar Indy’s. I know some of you like to see how the batches look so here you go.

Happy Friday Eve boys! Some loooong collars for the day's fare.

The Mrs. is at a friend's dinner party so it's me and the baby this evening. First time she's left the baby since she was born 2.5 months ago. Baby cuddles are certainly a new experience!

Looking great, Savvy. Savor those cuddles; they grew so fast.

Just boarded my flight. Didn't forget to remove my boots before going through the metal detector. Someone behind me asked if we needed to remove our shoes and I didn't wanna explain to them about the metal shank, so I just said these are steel toe boots. Lol!

And I'm the guy, that even though TSA pre-check, certified # and all, has to take off boots no matter what. Gave up wearing Aldens on airplanes, I don't want to mess with it. I now were new balance tennis shoes when flying, easier for me.

I was thinking the same, but decided it would be worth the effort since I gave myself plenty of time. I now keep a shoe horn in my side zippered pocket of my rolling luggage for such events!

Thank you kind sir!! Indeed I have heard that.

We saw some friends last week who have a 5 year and 17 month old. The 17 month old was like a grown man compared to my daughter. Crazy how much changes in 15 months!

Nuts, I tell you. I am sure my parents think the same thing. I know my mother can't believe I'm already all grown up.

Visited the Arch a few years ago in my Alden boots and had to get metal-detected. Told the guy I had "a metal shank in my boots" and he wanded my ankles/boots and waved me through after I buzzed. LOL.
