Good morning all, the coffee is on and it's Friday! We had a good time last night at Schlesinger's, the regulars were there as well as a few old faces we haven't seen in a while. This weekend is the German "Maifest" festival at Germania Fairgrounds in Poughkeepsie, NY. Beth and I are planning to attend tomorrow, the weather looks to be nice and we know that the beer, food and entertainment will be top notch: https://www.facebook.com/events/2337189653273986/
Sports wise, the Yankees are at home taking on Tampa Bay and the NASCAR racers are in Charlotte, NC with the truck race tonight and the All-Star race tomorrow evening. Enjoy everyone and I hope you get to relax as well....... :-)

Got to smoke a number of primo cigars, had a great time at the Maifest in Poughkeepsie, NY, spent time with family and friends and enjoyed a few adult beverages as well. Congrats to the Yankees as they are now in 1st place, keep it up fellas and play on. This is graduation week here at West Point, it'll be busy with parades and other festivities through Saturday. Enjoy everyone and I hope you all have a great week....... :-)

Good morning everyone, the coffee is on and it's Thursday. Congrats to the Yankees as they went deep again and won another one down in Baltimore. They have the final game today of a 4 game series today against the Orioles starting at 12:35 this afternoon, hopefully they have the brooms out and sweep em' on the road. This evening, a few of us are taking a road trip down to Nanuet, NY for a Drew Estate event at Dad's Cigar Warehouse. Our good friend Pedro from the factory will be there and it's always a pleasure. If you're in that area, stop by and have a smoke with us.:

Good morning all, the coffee has been on since 0420 as always and it's Friday! We had a great time last night at Dad's, it's always great to see Pedro and the crew from Drew Estate. Congrats to the Yankees on the win yesterday and the sweep of the Baltimore 4 game series. They'll be taking on the Royals this weekend in Kansas City starting tonight at 2015 (8:15 pm). The NASCAR drivers are in Charlotte, NC for the longest race of the season. The Coca Cola 600 on Sunday which follows the Indianapolis 500, yeah baby. Tomorrow is the West Point graduation, going to be a long day as we have to be in work at 0400. The Vice President is the guest speaker, always proud to have the top brass visit the Academy. Enjoy yourselves this weekend and take a minute and remember our proud military members that made the ultimate sacrifice in defending this great nation of ours........ :-)

Good morning all, the coffee is on and it's back to work Tuesday after a busy Memorial Day weekend. It's always an honor to work the West Point graduation as well as the Memorial Day wreath laying ceremony at West Point. The Yankees are doing great with an 8 - 2 record for their last 10 games, they won yesterday against the Padres at home and hopefully they do it again today. Enjoy your week everyone, smoke a favorite or two throughout it........ :-)

Ah, beats baseball and college basketball. Pro basketball and college baseball for that matter. And tennis. And golf. And every other sport ever invented.

Even NASCAR? Commie bastid. :-)
[Reply]

I don't think of NASCAR as a sport. More of a lifestyle. Just not mine.
