The Cigar Life

 

 Wednesday, April 8, 2026 Picked up an Asylum 13 recently at Stogies on Grand.  Decided to smoke it today.  It's been ages since I've had one.  Steve and I used to smoke these a lot.  They're fun to smoke.  Earlier today Dale and I went to lunch at Northbound. I had an Old Fashioned and he had a beer. We both got hamburgers. After lunch we took Mom to the doctor and he gave the go ahead that she can take her neck brace off. She was excited and we were so happy for her. It's been three months and she never really got used to how constricting it felt.  Upper 50's today but windy.  Hard to keep this one burning evenly but it wasn't solely because of the wind. Sometimes these big ones just do that.  Once back inside I had another Old Fashioned. Sushi for dinner and watched Big Bang Theory with Dale.  Great cigar. Really enjoyed it. 

 Saturday, March 21, 2026 Beautiful day. Bought some cigars at Stogies On Grand earlier today. The woman at the register and I were reminiscing about St. Patrick's Day back in 2012 when it got to 80 degrees. Not only did it get to 80 degrees but on top of that it was sunny AND it fell on a Saturday. I remember Dale and I sitting out in the backyard having cocktails.  Well, it didn't hit 80 but it was very pleasant out.  VERY pleasant. Had an Old Fashioned while Dale had some red wine. 

 Thursday, March 19, 2026 Smoked a Digger today.

 Saturday, March 14, 2026 Blizzard coming in. Cigar time before it hits. The cut. Toasting Lighting The sky is starting to spit a little snow but the blizzard conditions aren't supposed to hit until around 10 pm tonight.  We'll see what we get.
