What's the WiFi situation this year?

Anyone bringing an aircard/router?

There's no WiFi out in the Sticks.

And you only get cell service up on the naked guys shoulders.

Put me down as "probably not" for now.


Sounds like a cheap relaxing getaway to me.

That's the price of coffee you spend everyday.

Start putting your coffee money in a jar everyday, and you'll be covered for next year.

cost me about $1000.00 to make my pilgrimage from Mi, To AZ, To Ms.to Mi. and that's just fuel.

sometimes I have to walk cause I don't have the money, but it never stopped me

Fenster,

I think you could avoid the cost of the rental car. There are several guys going through Jackson that could pick you up.
Depending on your arrival time, I might could get you to the herf. Worse case, you might have to watch a soccer game before we headed up.
I don't mind working with ya, if that's an option you would entertain.

Big bear, Blu, Todd. Those 3 will drive close to the Jackson airport, but I think they come on Thursday.

If the Garmin will take lat and long, they are listed in post #299 of this thread. Most map apps will use coordinates.

It's actually in Benton, MS right off of Nivens Rd.

Got to www.latlong.net and type in 32.866445,-90.261054

You can zoom all the way in and actually see the cabin.

From there you can zoom out and create your own map.

Tell ocho he can come up here and fish.
Ice fishing is great. Don't even get out of the car.We install floor pans that move out of the way. ( in the summer there great for getting rid of evidence) we got 18 to 24 inches of ice.
If he wants to catch pan fish we use crushed ice , for the 30 inch and bigger we use cubes
At the end of the night we set by the bonfire in the middle of the lake and catch crappies.

it's for the cause.

Think about it cbid. Just look at my account.
We collectively are all gearing up for the Fishing Herf. Buying more cigars than usual as to make sure we have a variety for our fellow BOTL's

Shouldn't it be mandatory when 10 or more members (consumers)
Come together in an annual event to celebrate life, liberty, and freedom to ash.
On the behalf of our supplier.
To send tokens of gratitude?

What would that say for cbid, who cares about their customers outside of business protocol?

It's a win, win.

We get free cigars that we would no doubt collectively review and post.
You will get a loyalty that goes beyond your customers, but would touch the hearts of the general public.
Bringing forth new customers that would recognize you as not just a cigar business.
But a group of passionate people who care about the ones who care about them....

A family who cares for one another, is a family that grows.


I couldn't help but notice the lack of response from CBid staff.
