Good morning all, the coffee is on as always and it's back to work Monday already. Beth and I had a good weekend overall, got a lot done around the house and we enjoyed hitting a couple of breweries in the area as well. Congrats to the Hendrick's Racing Team for finishing all four cars 1st, 2nd, 3rd & 4th positions. The Yankees took 2 out of 3 games this weekend, it would have been a sweep but they gave up the lead yesterday after being up 4 runs. They'll be taking on the Rangers in Texas tonight starting at 2005 (8:05 pm), lets go fellas, you got this. Anyway, enjoy your week everyone, it's going to be busy here at West Point as the Class of 2021 graduates this Saturday........ 🇺🇲

Good morning all, the coffee has been on since 0345 as I'm heading out the door now for an early day at West Point. Today is the Graduation Parade for the Seniors in preparation of tomorrow's ceremony. It's going to be a long 2 days but well worth it for everyone. Congrats to the Yankees on another win yesterday, the Bronx Bombers are on a roll now. The NASCAR drivers are in Texas this weekend which we all know will be a hot one. Enjoy everyone, smoke a favorite or two or....... 👍

How was Aroma last night? And, whatever became of the other place, Schlesinger's?
[Reply]

Good morning everyone, the coffee is on and it's back to work Monday to soon. Congrats to the 993 brand new 2nd lieutenants be commissioned at West Point this past Saturday, graduation went very well. Congrats to Chase Elliott for taking the checkered flag in yesterday's rain shortened NASCAR race and a big congrats to the Yankees for sweeping the White Sox this weekend. Enjoy your week all....... :-)

The Aroma Cigar Room was hoppin' this past Thursday and to answer your question about Schlesinger's: Neil is in the process of selling it to a couple from NYC but is keeping 1% ownership so they can keep it a cigar bar / restaurant / store. He's in his 70s and his three adult children have no interest in the place. Hopefully the new owners bring the place back to life and all...... :-)

Thanks for the background information, Charlie. My questions at least show I pay attention to this thread.

Good morning all, the coffee is on and it's Thursday which means we'll be at Aroma Cigar Room this evening smoking primo stogies and watching the Yankees double header as a result of yesterday's rain out. Enjoy everyone and I hope to see a few of the local S/BOTL tonight...... :-)

Good morning everyone, the coffee is on as always and it's finally Friday! Congrats to the Yankees as they split the double headers with the Blue Jays. We watched the 2nd game at the cigar shop while enjoying fine cigars and all. They'll be taking on the Tigers this weekend in Detroit and the NASCAR drivers will be Charlotte, NC with racing starting tonight ending Sunday night with the Coca Cola 600.

Good morning all, the coffee has been on since 0410 and it's back to work Tuesday (only 2 days of work this week as Beth and I are flying to Deadwood, SD Thursday morning). We had a good weekend overall even with a couple of days of rain which was well needed. The Yankees lost four in a row, lets go fellas and turn this around. Kyle Larsen took the checkered flag in Sunday's NASCAR race and won us $100 in the pool at the American Legion. Yesterday, we facilitated the Wreath Laying Ceremony at West Point and then came home and grilled a rack of ribs low and slow that came out great. Enjoy your week everyone and remember to be safe out there...... :-)

Good morning everyone, the coffee is on and today is packing day to include what cigars to bring on the trip. I know that we'll be stopping at the Deadwood Cigar Company to see Vaughn Boyd and smoke a couple there, but I have 5+ days to prep for. Congrats to the Yankees for winning last night with a walk off homer in the bottom of the 11th by Clint Frazer:

Good morning everyone, the coffee is on and it’s looking like we’ll have another nice day here in the Black Hills of SD. We’ve had three great days so far, visited Sturgis, Deadwood and Spearhead. Stopped in the Deadwood Cigar Company and a number of breweries in the area. Today we’re heading to Mount Rushmore and Crazy Horse. We still have a good two days to sightsee and spend time with family before heading back to NY. Enjoy everyone....... 😎

Good morning all, the espresso coffee is on and we are back in NY. We had a great 5 day vacation in South Dakota / Wyoming and actually made it to Devils Tower (location where the movie Close Encounters of the Third Kind was filmed). Taking today off to unwind and recover as well as get some shopping done and a few others things. Hope everyone has a relaxing Hump Day and smoke a favorite or two or....... :-)

Good morning everyone, the coffee is on and it's back to work Thursday. I'm sure that there will be a ton of emails I need to go through when I get to the office, all is good as it was well worth it. Congrats to the Yankees win last night, hopefully they keep it up and get on a roll of "W"s. We'll be going over to the Aroma Cigar Room this evening to see the fellas and see how things are going. Enjoy all and be safe out there...... :-)
