The guys got here early, my wife had biscuits, gravy and coffee on so a little breakfast and catching up got the ball rolling. Lots of old pictures and laughing, great times.
We hit a pause in the damned rain and fired up the first of the day smokes that WhistleBritches hooked us up with. The Camacho 10th anniversary's were a great start. A few beers, snacks (Conan, the One ton chips were a huge hit) and hanging out led to the LFD's getting ashed while the oven got hot. Dinner and Oliva V's to Cap the evening by the fire pit. Until the rain started again. LOL. Karma is a cruel mistress.
Got a few pictures here. LOL.

Great great day. I can't thank all you guys who sent goodies to help the day along enough. (Ron, Conan, Frank) The lads were overwhelmed, and I sent care packages home with them so the largesse will continue to be enjoyed. Those guys were in awe of the variety and pedigree of smokes. You all are the finest kind. From the bottom of my crusty ole heart, thank you.
I only hope I can continue to pay it forward from here. The standard set here is high. My goal is to live up to it.
Thanks.
V And THAT, my friends, is the BOTL in a nutshell !
