Trip to see grandma a couple towns over in Devils Lake. Picturesque lake region hunting & fishing paradise. ‘00 JL2 to kick things off.

How was that ‘00 JL2?! Wrapper on it looks great.

Out camping with the kiddies since Tuesday at a Provincial Campground - I love it as a getaway as it's less than 90 min from my front door and you get ZERO cell reception in the valley. I can totally relax as I do a lot of on-call.

There was a big windstorm on Wednesday - I spotted it a few min out and started ordering the kids around and told the little guy to get in the trailer right away. Dude opened the door just as a big gust came and the force on the door was enough to send him flying about 7ft . He was fine and enjoyed the ride, but I wish I had a Go-pro to replay that moment for the rest of my life.

One of the below was of the kids looking creeped-out by the decor at a local restaurant. It featured loose wires hanging from outlets, but the food was great though 😋 

I dumped a bunch of pics in the other 'weekend' thread, so I won't duplicate. 

Cheers!

Chicken thighs!

We hosted our extended family and cooked up some tasty lamb souvlakia for my daughter's 25th birthday. It was a beautiful day on Saturday so I lit up a San Cristobal de La Habana El Principe from 2012 gifted to me by @loose_axle. It was tremendous! Unfortunately, it got cloudy and cold on Sunday from the late morning onwards, so I didn't light up anything, but at least Saturday was gorgeous.

@JohnS and @Capn_Jackson you guys have game!

A week to forget. Tried to catch up over the weekend and get back ahead of the wave. Which didn’t work out… Probably asking for too much.

Now enjoying a ETP JUN 16 BT3 on this chill but pretty calm evening, while the girls are preparing dinner (healing cigar!).

Wife dragged me to a pop gig (Robbie Williams). Not my cup of tea. Did get out for food and a quiet pint prior all the same.

Pretty relaxed weekend... Local brewery Friday, followed by opening a bottle of good bourbon with good company at a friend's house. Fantasy football draft Saturday, followed by libations and a Robusto Trinity at a friend's place. Today, coffee with a Sovereign Sons, washed the cars, mowed the lawn, and now enjoying a N1 Lancero.  Will be grilling burgers and dogs soon for the family.

Plenty of excitement out my front window 🤮 I’m just keeping an eye on the wildfire and adding some Cuban smoke to the atmosphere.

Not much. Small home project this weekend.  Replace vinyl plank stair nosing.

This was a nice weekend in SW Tennessee and the usual swamp ass humidity of August took a break and while we hit 90 degrees Fahrenheit, Saturday & Sunday the "feels like" was pretty nice. Perfect opportunity to bust out my MOFOH/Puro Desnudo sampler & try out 3 that are new to me: the Churchill, Fat Fundy, and Robusto Trinity. Saturday evening I grilled chicken wings & tonight was taco meat, bacon, and jerk chicken tenders on the griddle so cigars were the perfect accompaniment to the relaxation that cooking outside brings to me.

Friday: Churchill N8 - the notes say "...marshmallow & milk chocolate" and that's exactly what I got! Excellent burn & draw, and SO smooth! Loved it!

Saturday: Robusto Trinity - I actually got a little "twang" that I'll say wasn't the same Cuban variety but delivered in a way that really surprised me. There were 3 flavor transitions I picked up and I got earth, sweet cream, coffee, and some grassiness over the hours I enjoyed it. Perfect construction, too. This cigar has earned a way into my future NC rotation.

Sunday: Fat Fundy - Just finished this one up a few minutes ago & this size is fantastic for grilling. Draw & burn were flawless. I was a bit distracted preparing & cooking the food so my attention wasn't 100% focused on the nuances of the cigar. I'll say that I got medium body, some cafe au lait, saltiness like a Sancho Panza Molinos (MISSED so much!), and a touch of leather. Another humidor worthy cigar for me.

I think this entire MOFOH/Puro Desnudo lineup is just killing it! The natural Carlota N3 & Lancero N1 are already treasured by me and now my two remaining bundles will get ample aging opportunities since the new lineup is "buy & smoke now" as far as I'm concerned.

Is that the X-20? If so is it USB-C? How do you like it?

The speaker is actually the X-10 model. It is USC-C and I LOVE it. I  have had it a little over a year and the sound is a tad better than the JBL it replaced. Battery lasts a long time, too. I think I paid $100 for it on Amazon & I'd buy it again.

Thank you! I’ve got the JBL Charge 5 but I’m looking for something bigger with a bigger sound. Appreciate it!

Ha, that's the JBL model mine replaced, too! I'd say the sound quality of the X-10 is an improvement over the Charge 5 and would imagine the X-20 would be even more so. Good luck!

I spent the morning foraging mushrooms then cleaning and dehydrating them great conditions at the moment for bolete mushrooms. Probably most productive weekend for yard chores all summer so a really great weekend. Relaxed with a cold beer and Sovereign Suns Sunday evening to cap it all off.

Bank holiday in England. Managed to fit in a nice curry, a game of cards that went into the early hours (not my night) and a bbq. Somehow the only picture I took was of a bottle of wine.

Cigars smoked:

1. Diplomaticos no2

2. Queen Corona N5

3. PLPC

4. BPC

Anther pint picture, just because (a) it’s Wednesday, (b) I have a spare half hour and (c) @MoeFOH is a fan of the stout pictures (I’ll use any excuse tbh).
