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 coffee is on and breakfast is served. A number of the regulars were out and about at Aroma last night enjoying primo stogies and catching upon the world's news. We all are going back there today for a going away celebration for our nephew Gary who is relocating to West Palm Beach, FL. Later on today the Yankees take on the Mets for a three game home stand in the Bronx. The NASCAR drivers are in North Wilkesboro, NC this weekend with racing tomorrow and Sunday. The NY Knicks and the Boston Celtics play game 6 of their playoffs tonight at Madison Square Garden with the Knicks up 3 games to 2. Definitely a busy weekend of sports and all. Have a great weekend everyone and definitely enjoy........ :)

    Good morning all, the espresso is on and we're halfway through the work week. Yesterday, Beth and I finished up planting all our annual flowers throughout the flower beds and vegetables as well. Today is a relaxation day which is well deserved. Enjoy your day everyone and I hope you get to smoke a favorite or two...... 👍

    Good morning everyone, the coffee is on and it's looking like we'll be having a beautiful day today. The weekend was enjoyable: Saturday, I went to Aroma and hung out with the fellas; yesterday, I put a nice roast in the smoker for 7+ hours low and slow. Congrats to the Yankees for taking 2 out of 3 games from the A's and also a big congrats to Kyle Larsen for taking the checkered flag in yesterday's NASCAR race. Have a great week all and remember to be safe out there....... 🍺

Enjoy your weekend everyone and I hope you get to smoke a favourite or two or....... :)

    Good morning all, the coffee is on and shortly Beth and I will be heading down to the Bronx to watch the Yankees take on the Rays with a 1335 (1:35 PM) start time. The Yankees won last night 3 - 0 and hopefully they put up another "W" today. Have a great day everyone and enjoy it as well....... ⚾

    Good morning everyone, the espresso is on and breakfast will follow soon. I have a few errands to get done this morning and then I'll be heading to the Aroma Cigar Room later on this afternoon. I got all the yard work done yesterday to free up today to relax and enjoy. Have a great day all and remember to be safe out there....... 👍

    Good morning everyone, the espresso is on and the Eggo Homestyle Waffles are in the toaster. Being that we'll have rain for most of the day, I'll be heading over to the Aroma Cigar Room in Monroe, NY in an hour or so. I see that the Yankees lost to the Blue Jays last night 4 - 2, lets go fellas and put p a "W" today. The NASCAR drivers are at the largest track on the series this weekend, Talladega, AL. There's racing later on this afternoon and tomorrow. Have a great weekend all and enjoy....... 🇺🇸

    Good morning all, the coffee is on and it's a beautiful morning here in the Hudson Valley. I see that the Yankees have lost 2 in a row now, let's go fellas and turn things around this afternoon. Beth and I are heading over to Germania of Poughkeepsie (local German Club) for their monthly membership luncheon today. It's always a great meal with fellow Europeans and cold beer as well.

    Good morning everyone, the espresso is on and it's a cool 46°F as we speak. Congrats to the Yankees for taking 3 out of 4 games from Tampa on the road and also to the Mets for sweeping at home this weekend. We spent yesterday at the American Legion in New Windsor, NY serving Easter dinner to our members and military veterans. Have a great week all and enjoy...... :)

    Good morning all, the espresso is on and a Good Friday to everyone. The Aroma Cigar Room in Monroe, NY had the usual suspects out enjoying some top shelf stogies while we watched the Yankees on one TV while the Mets were on another. Both teams won last night and hopefully the repeat tonight. Enjoy your Easter weekend everyone and remember to be safe out there....... 🐰

    Good morning everyone, the coffee is on and it's Friday (being retired now for a year now - it's Saturday everyday). The Aroma Cigar Room in Monroe, NY was packed last night, everyone was smoking top shelf stogies and talking world news. Sports wise this weekend, the Yankees are back home hosting the San Francisco Giants; the Mets are on the road taking on the Athletics; the NASCAR drivers are in Bristol, TN with racing throughout the weekend; and the NHL is finishing up the regular season getting ready for the playoffs. I hope you all have a great weekend and enjoy...... 🍺⚾🏁🏒

    Good morning all, the double espresso is on and it's looking like we'll have a better weather day today in the Hudson Valley versus the past couple of days. Sports wise, the Yankees have lost 3 in a row now and the Mets are on a winning streak. Hopefully the Yankees can turn things around starting this afternoon and not get swept by the Tigers in Detroit. Have a great day everyone and remember to be safe out there....... :)

    Good morning everyone, the espresso is on and it's another wet and dreary day here as we speak. Beth and I had plans on doing yard work today which will definitely be rescheduled for tomorrow. Instead, I'll spend some time in the attic going through stuff that may get thrown out / donated to a good cause. Sports wise this past weekend, the Yankees took 2 out of 3 from the Pittsburgh Pirates; Denny Hamlin took the checkered flag in yesterday's NASCAR race; and a big congrats to the ladies from UCONN for another NCAA basketball championship. Have a great week all and definitely enjoy......

I'm heading over to the Aroma Cigar Room shortly to spend time with the fellas and enjoy a couple of primo stogies.

    Good morning all, the coffee is on and it's nice to be home after a whirl wind of a five day weekend. We had a great time down in sunny South Florida: Thursday we visited Terence Reilly and the crew at Aganorsa Leaf in Miami; that afternoon we went to Smoke On Water in Weston, FL; that evening we went to the Foundation Cigar event at the Smoke Inn in Boynton; Friday we relaxed at the house which had a huge screened in patio with swimming pool, hot tub and sauna; Saturday was the main event - The Great Smoke at the South Florida Fair Grounds; Sunday we went to the Smoke Inn Brunch at the Boynton store. Fantastic event and we got to see ole' friends as always. Enjoy your week everyone and all...... :)

    Good morning everyone, the coffee is on and it's looking like we'll be enjoying another beautiful day here in the Hudson Valley. Beth and I helped out last night at the monthly Pasta Night at the American Legion in Monroe, NY (Post 1796). Over 85 dinners were served and the food was top shelf. Have a great day all and I'll be checking in from South Florida throughout the week....... :)
