California Herf!!!

PM for ya Sandman.

and back at ya

Garen B:
Looking forward to seeing you Sandman, I'll send a prayer up to the Big Man for your battle buddy's father.

Same to you Garen this looks like it's gonna be fun, and thanks for the prayer.

Well it is offical I just got my tickets and I will be staying there thru Sunday. I will see you guys at the Herf on Saturday. I asked my battle to join us but he has to work that day. I'm looking forward to a great time with some of my west coast BOTL. See you all in less then a week. This is going to be a sad yet fun trip. I do not know exactly how I'm feeling about this just yet......hmmmmm maybe a shrimp burrito and a few smokes will take off the edge.

Oh and before I forget what do they carry at the store? Any premium stuff that I have to try? Thanks in advance.

They have the Padron '64 if you haven't had that. They carry a good variety of cigars, RP, Fuente, Padron, La Flor Dominicana, some Tatuaje, Perdomo, Punch, Gurkha, Gran Habano, Sancho Panza, Davidoff, CAO, Drew Estates, Joya de Nicaragua, Oliva, Macanudo, La Gloria Cubana. There are a couple others I'm sure, but that's what I can pull off the top of my head.

Thanks Joe. Sounds like they have a good selection. How are the prices? I actually have tried and love the Padron 64, so much so that Tat and I are working on a box split right now. Gonna probably have to do a LFD or Tatuaje when I'm there. Of course you can't go wrong with the Padron.

The prices are typical California, so plan on bringing some of your own cigars if you can. I like to buy a few to support the business and all, but B&M prices out here are a little too steep to buy much more than that at any one time.

I will bring a few from home as well as make the normal what I will buy to support them for allowing us a place to smoke. Thanks for the info.

They have Tatuaje there?! I must be blind, I've been wanting to try one forever.

Bring your red-tipped cane and I'll show you where they are.

Russ55

Where do they keep them, in the walk in?

Russ55:

You bring your red-tipped cane too, and we can have a blind leading the blind Tatuaje tour. Big Smile [:D]

They're in the walk in, to the far right and about chest level. The only way you miss them is if you're actually looking for them.

Russ55

Haha. Will do.

Well I'm coming from the north so I will bring all the candy canes I can for all you blind folk....I hope we can find the Tatuaje together. Just so you know there will be a one cane for stick trade that is expected at the end of the tour. If you like cherry then it's a 2 for 1 stick to cane trade.

PM to you Joe

And back to ya.

I think I'm going to miss tomorrow. I did something to my hand today and it's swollen up. Not sure what I did though, but I don't think I can make the drive. I'll make the next one.

Another great herf was had by all today... the weather was perfect and Tony (Sandman) came out to enjoy the california sun and a shrimp burrito

along with all the "usual suspects"... Took a few pics... and no it wasn't hazy, just lots of smoke coming off the patio! Tony enjoying his first smoke...

Garren kicking back with a smoke...

Group shot one... (left around clockwise... Jason, Andre (barely visible)... Leonard, Joe, Tino and Garren )

Group shot 2 (Joe, Tino and Garren)

And of course in addition to all the spectacular smokes shrimp burritos and tacos were consumed!

Looking forward to next month!

Haha, love the pics Tim, especially the one that looks like I'm trying to inhale the rest of my taco

. Awesome day, Tony is a cool guy and I'm glad I had the pleasure to meet him and share a few cigars.

~~~ LOL sorry brother... the camera is a mixed blessing

Oh BTW I smoked one of the camacho candelas... it IMHO had an unpleasent profile in the first inch but got better and better for me as it ramped up... towards the end I was really diggin it, and sorry to see it nub out! Been a long time since I smoked candellas so I don't know if I was just not used to the profile or if it took time to find my palate LOL... in any case thanks for the sticks!

Well in all fairness, I was trying to inhale the rest of the taco...so the camera just caught me accurately in my shrimp fueled gluttony. Big Smile [:D]

Thanks for sending a couple great sticks home with Tony for me, Joe! He needs to go to California more often!

Yo Red, you should make a day trip down to see us... there is a shrimp burrito waiting for you

If you made the trip down to join us for a herf Ozzie, your first cigar would be on me. It would be really cool to have you down to share some cigars with.
