Good morning post 3.0

Good morning all, the coffee has been on since 0420 and it's already "Hump Day". I see that the NY Rangers dropped another one last night, lets go fellas and turn things around. They play tomorrow evening again, hopefully they can figure out a way to win one for a change. Anyway, enjoy everyone and remember to be safe out there.......?

    Good morning everyone, the espresso is on and I'm getting ready to head out and meet the fellas at Aroma. We have coffee, donuts, and of course top shelf cigars. I've already packed my cigars (35 primo sticks) for our 12 day trip and all I have left to do is pack my clothes and things which I'll knock out this afternoon. We have a 0500 (5 AM) car service in the morning and once we're checked in, we'll be heading up to the United Club for Bloody Marys and breakfast. I'll check in while we are on vacation and hopefully we have some nice weather while we are down there. Enjoy all and stay warm...... :)

    Good morning all, the coffee is on and it's freezing out as we speak. That's fine as Beth and I will be getting ready for our annual trip to Key West that's start bright and early Sunday morning. We're going for 12 days which means we'll enjoy the Super Bowl down there. Got a little running around to do today and then come home and relax. Enjoy everyone....... 🍺

    Good morning everyone, the espresso is on and it's a cold morning here in the Hudson Valley. According to NOAA, it's currently 5°F outside with a wind chill of -7°F:

    Unless you have not watched television, listened to the radio, or viewed any social media in reference to the upcoming weather, we're going to get hammered. The weather guessers are calling for anywhere from 11 to 20 inches starting tomorrow morning and lasting through midday on Monday. At least the AFC and NFC championship games are on along with other sports to keep us busy. Enjoy your weekend all and definitely be careful out there....... 🇺🇲

    Good morning everyone, the espresso is on and it's a snowy Sunday morning. Yesterday, we got roughly 6" of snow from day break until mid afternoon and it's snowing again and the weather guessers are calling for another 5" today:

    ​I spent most of the day at Aroma with the fellas and then got home to shovel the driveway and all before sitting down to watch some NFL Playoff games. The Broncos vs. the Bills was a terrific game while the Seahawks ve. the 49ers was a blowout. I hope today's games are worth watching and wish your favorite teams win. Have a great day all and enjoy....... 🏈

    Good morning all, the espresso is on and it's looking like we'll get some snow through tomorrow. I fully understand that it's winter and all, but I hate the cold weather especially shovelling the white stuff. Have a great day everyone and try and enjoy a favorite or two or...... :)

    Good morning all, the espresso is on and I'm heading out in a few to get my tires rotated on the Jeep and then run a few errands. Later on this afternoon, I'll be heading to the Aroma Cigar Room in Monroe, NY to see the fellas and smoke a couple of primo stogies. Have a great day everyone and enjoy....... 🍺

    Good morning everyone, the espresso is on and I'll be going to West Point in a bit for a routine doctor's appointment. We had a great weekend starting with Saturday at the Aroma Cigar Room in Monroe, NY. Two of our crew retired and started the next chapters in their life. Yesterday, Beth and I went to the American Legion in New Windsor, NY took down and stored all the holiday decorations and stayed to watch some NFL games. I hope you all have a great week and enjoy....... 🍺

    Good morning all, the coffee is on and it's Friday the 2nd of January. We had a great New Year's Eve at the Legion and then we went back yesterday to have a New Year's Day lunch for everyone. The College Bowl games in the past two day were exciting to watch and I hope today's will be just as good. Have a great weekend everyone and enjoy....... 👍

    Good morning all, the coffee is on and a happy Sunday to everyone. After a successful Red Cross blood drive at the New Windsor American Legion yesterday, the Eagle beat the Commanders to get crowned the NFC East Champs two years in a row. Beth and I have a few last minute things to get done today in preparation of the Christmas Dinner we'll be hosting at the American Legion and afterwards we'll kick back with a few cold ones. Hope everyone has a great day and enjoys as well....... 🎅🎄🤶

    Good morning everyone, the espresso is on and it's a wet morning here in the Hudson Valley. We had a great night at Dad's Cigar Warehouse in Nanuet, NY last night. They were hosting a Cohiba (General Cigar) event and Sean Williams (National Marketing Rep) flew in from Atlanta, GA for it. I hope you all have a great weekend and enjoy...... 🍺

    Good morning all, the espresso is on and it's sunny with temps in the teens as we speak. Unfortunately, Army lost to Navy by one point with the final score of 17 - 16. The Eagles blanked the Raiders 31 - 0 yesterday and I see that the Cowboys and the Chiefs both were both elimanted from the playoffs. Have a great week everyone and enjoy........ :)

In a little bit more than 7 hours, the Army Black Knights will take on the Navy Midshipman down in Baltimore, MD. It's America's Game with the winner receiving the Commander in Chief's Trophy. Go Army, Beat Navy. Have a great day all enjoy....... 🏈🇺🇲🍺

    Good morning everyone, the coffee is on and we have another busy day ahead of us. The past two days, we have had a couple of packed houses at the New Windsor American Legion and tonight will be another one with our monthly Pasta Night. We hosted the New York Guard on Saturday with their holiday party and then yesterday was a fund raiser for a local lady fighting cancer. Enjoy your week all and remember to be safe out there....... 👍

    Good morning everyone, the coffee is on and it's a snow blanketed Wednesday here in the Hudson Valley. Yesterday, we got a good 3 to 4 inches of heavy snow that should be around for a few days to give up the holiday spirit. Got some running around to do later on with Beth and then we'll come home and watch a few of our favorite Christmas movies / shows. Enjoy all....... 🎅🎄🤶

    Good morning everyone, the espresso is on and it's December 1st already. We had a great weekend over all: the house and property is transformed from Fall to Christmas and the New Windsor American Legion Post 1796 is as well. Congrats to Army on their 6th win Saturday over UTSA and now are Bowl eligible. Beth and I plan on taking it easy this week being that it's only going to get busier as the holidays arrive. Enjoy your week all and don't forget to stay safe out there....... 🍺

    Good morning all, the espresso is on and I have already had a piece of warm homemade pecan pie. We had a great time yesterday at the New Windsor American Legion Post 1796. We hosted the Thanksgiving dinner which turned out great: https://www.facebook.com/reel/1575443016785124

    Good morning everyone, the espresso is on and we are about to go out to the local market before the crowds get there. Later on today we'll be heading over to the Aroma Cigar Room to hang out with the fellas and enjoy some Thanksgiving festivities as they are closed tomorrow. Enjoy your day everyone and as my mom use to say, try and save some room for the desert...... :)
