Good morning all, the coffee is on and it's 1 week until Christmas. Got a couple of small things still to pick up which I'll do today and hopefully be done. Pretty quiet at the office, the Cadets here at West Point are getting ready to head home for the holidays. We have our annual Christmas party this Friday at a local restaurant and then a few of us will head over to Schlesinger's to smoke a cigar or two. Enjoy everyone and remember to be safe out there........ :-)

Good morning everyone, the coffee is on and it's already "Hump Day". After work, gonna head over to the Newburgh Brewery to enjoy a couple and spread some holiday cheer with cigars for the boys. Christmas shopping wise, I'll finish that up this evening as well as cause we know that folks love Paul's beer especially when they receive a gift basket of them. Hope you all have a great day as well........ :-)

Enjoy all and be safe out there....... :-)

Good morning everyone, the coffee is on and it's already "Hump Day". Had a nice and easy day yesterday after a quiet night on New Year's Eve. Beth and I watched a number of Bowl Games and I even took down the outside lights. Prepping for this weekend as we fly down to Key West for a week of rest and relaxation on the island of fun and games. I hope you all have a great day and enjoy it as well...... :-)

Good morning all, the espresso coffee is on and we're home from our week in the Keys. Beth and I had a blast as always in Key West spending time with our nephew Gary who manages Jack Flats on Duval St. Ate a lot of fresh seafood, enjoyed a lot of cold beers, had a great time sailing on a 92' wooden sail boat, spent the day at Fort Jefferson, and of course smoked numerous tasty cigars. Hated to come back to NY in this cold weather but we'll be back down in Florida in 30 days for a week in the sun and going to the Great Smoke in West Palm Beach. Sports wise, we'll be rooting on the Eagles this afternoon and hopefully they advance in the NFL playoffs. Enjoy everyone....... :-)

Good morning all, the coffee has been on since 0420 as always (work days) and it's Friday! Snow wise, we got a dusting up here in Cornwall but I'm sure the mountain to West Point got a little more. We had a good time last night at Schlesinger's, the regular crowd was there along with a couple of new faces. Enjoy your weekend everyone and I hope you all are prepared for tomorrow night's storm....... :-)
