Good morning all, the coffee is on and it's Friday! We had a packed house at Schlesinger's last night, you can tell it's getting cold out as everyone is coming in to smoke and enjoy. Sports wise this weekend, the World Series continues down in LA, there's plenty of NHL and NFL along with college football for your enjoyment. The NASCAR racers are down in Martinsville, VA this weekend, there's only 4 races left in the season to crown the Champion. I hope everyone has a relaxing weekend, enjoy and all.......

Good morning everyone, the coffee is on and it's back to work Monday. We had another great weekend overall: top shelf cigars, a variety of beers, wines and ciders along with tasty meals to match. Congrats to the Red Sox for being crowned the 2018 World Series Champs, well deserved. It was good to see the Eagles win in London England and a congrats to Joe Logano for taking the checkered flag in yesterday's NASCAR race in Martinsville, VA:

Good morning all, the coffee is on as always and it's Friday! We had a great time last night at Schlesinger's, a lot of ole' friends showed up which is always fun. The Army football team plays Air Force tomorrow here at West Point which means we'll be up and running in the Emergency Operation Center at 0500. It's going to be a long day but well worth it. Also this weekend, the NASCAR drivers are in Texas with racing starting tonight through Sunday afternoon. There's plenty of NHL and NFL action throughout as well and college football all day tomorrow. I hope everyone has a relaxing weekend and enjoys. Go Army, Beat Air Force........

Good morning all, the coffee is on and it's back to work Monday already. Congrats to Army for winning over Air Force (AF) and retaining to Commander-in-Chief's Trophy again.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comman...ief%27s_Trophy AF beat Navy earlier in the season so all we Army had to do was beat the AF. The Army team will still go to Philly the 2nd Saturday in December and beat Navy to win the Trophy the right way. Enjoy your week everyone and remember to be safe out there.......

Good morning everyone, the coffee has been on since 0420 as always and it's "Voting Day". It's simple, if you don't get out and vote, you have no reason to complain. Weather wise, NOAA is calling for rain all day here in the Hudson Valley:

Good morning all, the coffee is on and it's already "Hump Day". Tonight, Beth and I are going out to a local restaurant as it's "Restaurant Week" in the Hudson Valley. We chose the Liberty Street Bistro in Newburgh:
http://libertystreetbistro.com/
https://www.opentable.com/r/liberty-...-11-07+19%3A00
Liberty Street Bistro is a neighborhood eatery in Downtown Historic Newburgh. Located in the bustling Liberty Street Corridor, across from Washington's Headquarters, one can discover this contemporary American restaurant. The decor may be elegant yet guests can keep it casual and let the food be fancy instead! Classic French-influenced cuisine is deliciously served in a modern and simple style while embracing the community, culture, and bounty of the Lower Hudson Valley.
Fun Fact: Chef and owner Michael Kelly has cut his teeth in some of NYC’s greatest kitchens, including Thomas Keller’s Bouchon Bakery and Markus Glocker’s Batard. Now, he’s crafting his own menu, bringing classic fine dining into a bold new era!
Enjoy everyone and remember to stay safe out there.......

Good morning everyone, the coffee is on and it's Thursday. The Hudson Valley has it's first snow storm of the 2018-2019 season hittin' today into tonight, not exactly sure how much and how bad it'll be. The weather guessers are predicting 3" to 5" with ice and rain mixed. I have to post the infamous "Bread & Milk" video to welcome in the winter storm and give everyone a laugh:

Good morning all, the coffee is on and it's Sunday. We survived the first storm of the year, hope the next one doesn't come too soon. Army beat Colgate yesterday 28 - 14 which improves their record to 9 and 2. They only have one game left and that is against Navy in Philly the 2nd Saturday in December. Today there's plenty of NHL, NFL and NASCAR to keep you busy sports wise. Enjoy everyone.......

Good morning everyone, the coffee is on and today's the last work day until next Monday. The weather guessers are saying that tomorrow will be the coldest day in history for the Macy's Day parade in the City. If you're going down there, bundle up with plenty of layers. We'll be watching it at home with family coming over later on for dinner as well as all the NFL games. I hope all of you have a relaxing Thanksgiving as well and enjoy......
