Good morning all, the coffee is on and it's looking like we have another day or two of rain on our hands. Got the grass cut yesterday just in time and all. I see that the Yankees got spanked last night, definitely gonna be a long season. Enjoy everyone and smoke a favorite or two if you get the chance...... :-)

Good morning all, the coffee is on and it's "Hump Day". As a number of you already know, a dear friend of ours Stephen Jaffee, that has been working at Hudson Valley Cigars since 1994 passes away early Sunday morning. The family and his close friends met yesterday and we had a nice dinner complimentary of Neal Schlesinger. We talked about happy times over the years and smoked cigars in his honor. Today will be the funeral home viewing and he will be cremated afterwards. Stevo, you will be dearly missed but never forgotten. Enjoy everyone as our brother Steve would wish the same...... :-)

Prayers sent for Stephen's family and friends.

Good morning all, the coffee is on and it's looking like we'll be having a nice weather day. That's good because we'll be out on the fairways of Trump National Golf Course - Hudson Valley helping out Doc James Cigars raining funds for Wings for Warriors. Anthony "Doc" Ameen flew in from Phoenix Saturday evening and is here for the fund raiser as always. Well, I see that the Yankees are on a roll finally. Good to see that they are turning things around and playing good ball for a change. Anyway, enjoy your week everyone and smoke a favorite or two throughout it...... :-)

Good morning all, the coffee is on and it's Friday! We had a great time last night at Schlesinger's, the place was hoppin' and thanks to Brian R Vrooman from PDR for everything. I see that the Yankees lost a close one yesterday afternoon, let's hope that they have a good 4 day series against the Rays in Tampa this weekend. The NASCAR drivers are in Charlotte, NC this weekend with the longest race of the season Sunday - The Coca-Cola 600. I hope everyone has a relaxing Memorial Day weekend and try and look back and think of a family member or friend that paid the ultimate sacrifice to keep this county of our free....... :-)

Good morning all, the coffee is on and it's back to work Tuesday. We had a great weekend with family and friends and it didn't rain like it was suppose to which is always a good thing thing. Got the yard looking great on Saturday and we even planted flowers throughout. Got to watch some baseball and NASCAR when time permitted but it was too nice out to stay indoors most of the time. Enjoy your week everyone and be safe out there...... :-)

Good morning all, the coffee is on as always and it's already "Hump Day". It's good to see the Yankees win again, let's keep it up fellas and tighten up the MLB AL East. Got home from work yesterday with the intentions of cutting the grass but mother nature had other plans. Got a good rain storm hit us just when i pulled out the mower. I did get to turn my compost pile and clean that area up though. I'll try again today as I'd like to ensure the yard looks good and all. Enjoy everyone and be careful out there...... :-)
