Looks cold

It actually warmed up today, to a balmy 10*f, cigar was a welcome respite after having to replace the chain on the snowblower, haven’t found a good way of installing a master link with gloves on yet.

I have an exhaust fan that does a good job in the man room if I sit close to it but it gets a bit cold if its below 20°. Perhaps next week it will be usable!

 

[Ravensview]

Ye, it’s supposed to warm up some, it’s been a pretty mild winter so far, I just got my snow machine out last week. Gotta fix my Mr. buddy heater to use out in the garage, my boss says no stogies in the house.

I’ll follow @Ravensview ’s lead:

Such is life in the North, You gotta just do what you gotta do, when the stogie sirens are calling

I've plowed three feet of snow this week and haven't enjoyed a cigar yet. Too cold in the garage let alone outside! Once we return to the 20s I'll definitely head out for a Romacraft.

While you guys have icicles hanging off the nutsacks, I'm enjoying a Jaime Garcia Reserva Especial in 74° weather....LOL.

Hell, I won’t see those till springtime!

 

[Brent in Az]

Oh, and I’m less than two ft away from this heater.

Cold snap?....lol

Cold snap?....lol

It's been a crazy week, with lows in the high teens. Tonight, the low will be 19 degrees. A bit nippy for Central Georgia.

Thank God for Global Warming. 2 degrees in Nashville? For real? Grabbing a cigar in 11*F with first world propane heater watching playoffs and wondering how cigar smokers in Wisconsin do it.

 

[Brent in Az]

The last time I've been in temps like that, is when I spent a winter in Montana.
I'm not sure which is more miserable when smoking a cigar? Frigid temps? Or when its 112°

Before Covid destroyed my lungs, I would sit on the deck after dinner and have a Romeo and Julieta Real 1895 and a Cognac! Does not get much better than that to sit and listen to the birds, crickets and the rustle of the leaves in the breeze!

Have the lungs gotten any better for you, or is the damage permanent?

I have permanent damage and it also damaged my heart and I have documented cognitive impairment. Had to retire early from my job, 42 years as a RN and they did not want me to
injure a patient, the staff or me! So, now I am on disability!

Sorry to hear that. Covid really did a number on some people.
I was lucky, as my Covid experience was relatively mild compared to most.

What.......no Swisher Sweets or White Owls?

Do not forget the King Edwards! My grandfather smoked them and we had cigar boxes full of everything, (except money), crayons, pencils, make up and other stuff!
