Happy Anniversary to my Lisa!

Lisa, Happy 6th anniversary. We were married 6 years ago and they have been the greatest years of my life. I have enjoyed many travels with you and am the luckiest man because I have found you. You are a great friend and am glad that you have enjoyed many, I mean countless smokes with me. We enjoyed a great smoke tonight on our anniversary, the Rocky Patel Old World Reserve along with a great steak and great wine.... You are the greatest and I celebrate our wonderful wedding this day!

Long Ashes To My Buddy Rob!

A huge "Congratulations" goes out to my best bud Rob! He got a huge promotion at his job and deserves a cigar celebration! Awesome job Rob and keep up the great work! You made it Man!

Thinking of Key West

The weather is rainy and cold and instead of thinking about it, I caught myself daydreaming about Key West. We went down in December and it is a great place to visit. Had a lot of fun and even some sun! Something we aren't seeing a lot of lately!

A Wonderful Thing

A Padron Principe being enjoyed. Almost looks like it could be a plug for Diebel's Sportsmans Gallery.

End Tables

Here is a picture of the table completed. There is a pair, one for each side of the bed. I used a water based dye to get that golden color. There are 4 coats of clear and a hand rubbed finish. You can see the curls in the table top.

They turned out very nice and there is enough room for a small lamp.

Plane Crazy

I have been busy purchasing hand planes. I have purchased some old Stanley Planes from Ebay. I have a 4, a couple 5's and a 6. The one pictured above is a 4 type 18. The plan is to get them all tuned up and start making some shavings.
