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 all, the espresso coffee is on as I took the day off to get a few things done before the holidays are here. Beth has a routine doctors appointment, then we have to stop at the eye doctors to pick up a new pair of glasses and then do some final holiday prep and all. Enjoy your Hump Day everyone and smoke a favorite or two if you get the chance....... ?

    Good morning everyone, the coffee is on and it's looking like we'll have a sunny day here in the Hudson Valley with temps in the lower 30s as the high. They are calling for a dusting of the white stuff tomorrow which is normal for us this time of the year. Enjoy your day all and remember to be careful out there...... ?

    Good morning all, the coffee is on as always and it's back to work Monday. We had a good weekend overall, plans did change and we rescheduled our tour to the distillery for another day. Congrats to the Eagles on their win over the Jets and keeping up in the Wild Card race. As a note, with the Christmas holiday approaching in a few weeks, be careful out there as we know that they'll be office parties and such. Enjoy everyone and I hope you all have a great week...... ?

    Good morning everyone, the coffee is on and it's Friday! We had a good time at the Aroma Cigar Room last night, the usual suspects were out and we were smokin' Drew Estate Undercrown cigars paired with Basil Hayden bourbon. Tomorrow, a few of us are going to the Hudson House & Distillery for a tour and some tastings for sure:

It's looking like we'll have a wet one here today in the Hudson Valley and then drying up with a sunny weekend until late Sunday evening according to NOAA:

    Good morning everyone, the coffee is on as always and it's back to work Monday. We had a good couple of days and finished up decorating the house and yard to include putting up the Christmas Tree. Beth has a few more holiday decorations to put up but the majority of it is done. I hope you all have a great week and get to enjoy a few of your favorites throughout it....... ?

    Good morning all, the espresso coffee is on and it's the middle of our Thanksgiving holiday vacation. We had a great time down in New York City on Thanksgiving, the parade great and we enjoyed ourselves throughout the day. Yesterday, Beth and I had our Thanksgiving dinner and are in the middle of transitioning the house and yard from Fall to Winter holiday. We'll finish that today and have a couple of our friends over to help and enjoy a few cold ones as well. Enjoy everyone....... ?

    Good morning everyone, the coffee is on as always and it's back to work Monday already. Saturday was another win for Army, the final score was Army 33, UMass 17. Yesterday, Beth and I raked the yard and then we sat out to enjoy a few cold ones and a fine cigar. For dinner, we enjoyed a rack of ribs that went low and slow on the grill for a good 3+ hours on 275 °F. I hope you all have a great Thanksgiving week, please remember our proud military members that won't be home with family and friends that are in harms way....... ??

    Good morning all, the coffee is on and it's Friday! We had a good time at Aroma last night, a number of the regulars were there relaxing and enjoying top shelf stogies. Tomorrow, Army has their last home football game scheduled for the season and it's against UMass. It's a noon kick off which means we'll be in the EOC by 0500 up and running. The weather looks good for tomorrow, temps in the mid 40s and partly sunny (perfect football weather). Anyway, enjoy everyone and I hope you get to smoke a favorite or two or........ ?

    Good morning all, the coffee is on and it's already "Hump Day". This week is Installation Fall Clean-Up on West Point and our department (roughly 17 of us) will rake up the leaves around our office building today. We have to rake every thing to the curb edge and the leaf sucker truck will pick it up from there. Every little bit helps to make West Point look good and keep the historical views awesome for all the visiting guests. Enjoy everyone and as always, be safe out there....... ?

    Good morning all, the coffee is on as usual and it's back to work Monday already! We had a short weekend with working the Army football game. Army won 63 - 10 with an hour weather delay (rain, lightning and hail) at half-time. Yesterday, Beth and I toured the Hudson House Distillery in West Park, NY which we highly recommend and will be back again soon:

    Good morning everyone, the coffee is on and it's Friday! Being that yesterday was Veterans Day, Beth and I met up with a number of American Legion members and other military organizations to lay wreaths at the New Windsor, NY veterans memorial. Afterwards, everyone was invited back to the Legion Hall for lunch and refreshments. Later on in the afternoon, I headed over to meet up with the fellas at Aroma Cigar Room to smoke a couple of my favorites. Tomorrow, Army football takes on Bucknell with a noon kick-off. We'll be in the EOC from 0500 to 1700 (5 pm) as activities start early on West Point with a number of DVs attending. Have a great weekend all and enjoy....... ?

    Good morning everyone, the coffee is on and it's back to work Tuesday. I took yesterday off as I had some use or lose vacation time and had some stuff to get done. Beth and I had a fun and busy weekend: Saturday, I got my new Jeep serviced (7000 mile check up), and then went to the American Legion in New Windsor, NY; Sunday did some early shopping and then sold $1200+ in 50/50 tickets at the annual Legion Special back at the American Legion. Congrats to Kyle Larsen for being crowned the 2021 NASCAR champion after taking the checkered flag in Sunday's race. I hope you all have a great week and enjoy...... ?

    Good morning everyone, the coffee is on and it's a chilly 30°F outside as we speak here in the Hudson Valley. We are changing things up a bit this evening as a few of us are going out to restaurant week tonight versus our normal Thursday at Aroma Cigar Room. We are trying "Toasted" in Newburgh for the first time, hopefully it doesn't disappoint:

    Good morning all, the coffee is on and it's back to work Monday. Beth and I had a great weekend overall. I spent the day Saturday at the Aroma Cigar Room with the fellas; yesterday morning we had breakfast with our dear friends from Michigan that were in town for a wedding; and the rest of the day was spent watching football, smoking cigars and giving out candy to the neighborhood kids. Congrats to the Eagles on their big win over the Lions and to Beth's Jets on their comeback win. The World Series continues tomorrow in Houston with Atlanta up 3 games to 2. Have a great week everyone and enjoy......... ?
