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 has been on since 0400 as I couldn't sleep any longer. Today is day 3 of the Class of 2024 arriving at West Point (1240 new cadets). The class was divided into three groups with the first group arrived Sunday and so forth. Each one of them is tested for COVID-19 upon arrival utilizing the new GEN-X testing system that gives you a result in one hour. They'll be receiving all their clothing and equipment this week and start the 4 year West Point experience immediately. Have a great day all and be safe out there...... 🤓

    Good morning all, the coffee is on as always and it's back to work Monday. We had a great weekend and got some outstanding news. My son Jeremy and his wife Christen had their second daughter born Saturday evening. Our new granddaughter Vivian Elyse Baranyai. Born at 8:41 pm. She is 6lbs 13oz, 20in. Mommy and baby are both doing well. Yesterday, Beth and I hit a couple of microbreweries as things are opening back up which is good. Enjoy your week everyone, smoke a favorite or two if you get the chance...... 👍

    Good morning everyone, the coffee is on and it's Friday! We had a good time at Schlesinger's last night, more and more of the local S/BOTL are coming back out and joining us. The NASCAR drivers are at Kentucky Speedway this weekend with racing started last night and continuing through Sunday. I hope you all have a good one and relax as well....... 🍻

    Good morning everyone, the coffee is on and it's already "Hump Day" again. The tear down of the old shed and prep for the new one came out nice. Very pleased as always with Foley Landscaping, professional and always goes above and beyond. I hope all of you have a great day and remember to be safe out there...... 🤓

    Good morning all, as always the coffee is on and it's gonna be another hot and humid one out there today. I have Foley Landscaping Co at the house today tearing down my old shed and prepping the area for a new 10' x 16' shed coming soon. I'm having an Amish one built in PA and it should be here in a week: www.mysheds.com

    Hope everyone has a good day and enjoys...... 🍻

    Good morning everyone, the coffee is on as always and it's back to work Monday after a relaxing weekend filled with BBQ, cigars and adult beverages. The 4th of July was very different this year, no parades or fireworks except for the surrounding neighbors that lit of bottle rockets and stuff. Yesterday, I found out a dear friend passed away yesterday loosing her battle with cancer. Irma was a big supporter year after year of our Quad State Herf and she will be deeply missed. Until we meet again sister, keep those cigars burning in heaven. Enjoy all....... 👍

    Good morning everyone, coffee is on as always and it's already "Hump Day". We actually have tomorrow left to work and then we have a 3 day weekend. Unfortunately, no one is having any Independence Day festivities as a result of the current COVID-19 situation. We'll make the best of it and make up for it next year. Enjoy all and remember to be safe out there...... 🍻

    Good morning all, the coffee is on and it looks like we'll have a couple more days of rain then some sunshine according to NOAA:

    I know we can use the rain and all as the rivers are low, fingers crossed we have some sun on the 4th to at least get the BBQ going. Have a great day everyone and hopefully we can squeeze a cigar in the day somewhere........ 👍

    Good morning everyone, the coffee is on and it's back to work Monday. It's going to be a short week as Uncle Sam is giving us Friday off for the 4th of July weekend celebration. Unfortunately, not to many towns are having parades, festivities or fireworks this year. A year to remember and tell our grand kids about. It was a good weekend for NASCAR, there was racing all day yesterday and part of Saturday (rain postponed one race which ran yesterday morning). Anyway, enjoy your week all and be safe out there........ 🤓

    Good morning all, the coffee is on as always and it's Friday! We had a good time last night at Schlesinger's, the regulars were out and it was great to see some old friends join us. Things are starting to get back to normal, still have to be careful and ease back in slowly. This weekend, NASCAR has a busy schedule starting tonight racing at Pocono Raceway:

    Good morning all, the coffee is on and it's already "Hump Day". I see that the MLB has made the official announcement to return to play ball which will have the players reporting for training by July 1, and then a proposed 60-game regular-season schedule hopefully beginning on July 23 and 24:

    It's good to see some good news out there instead of all the hate and crime lately. Anyway, enjoy everyone........ 🤓

    Congrats to Ryan Blaney for taking the checkered flag in yesterday's NASCAR race winning by a nose. The third place car of Aric Almirola actually crossed the finish backwards as they crashed at the end:

    Good morning all, the coffee is on and it's back to work Monday already. It was a great weekend starting with our BBQ at work on Friday. Saturday morning, I headed over to Plum Point Park and met a couple of the guys from the cigar shop to enjoy a couple of stogies:

    Yesterday, Beth and I adventured out and then came home to relax out back. The NASCAR race was rescheduled for today at 1500 (3 pm) because of rain and it will be televised on FOX. Have a great week everyone and I hope you enjoy a favorite or two through out it........ 👍

    Good morning all, the coffee is on and it's Friday! We had a good time at Schlesinger's last night as a number of the regulars were there enjoying cigars and a couple of drinks. We have a BBQ planned for today at work to around 1200 (noon). All the folks that have been working non-stop in the EOC said it was time to fire up the grill, so were having a pot luck luncheon. We're having hot dogs, hamburgers, kielbasa, ribs, venison steaks, rice and beans, potato and macaroni salads, deserts of all sorts, etc. We'll have 25+ attending and I'm sure that guests will show up as we have plenty of food. Sports wise this weekend, the NASCAR drivers are in Talladega, AL which is always a fun race to watch as it's the largest track on the circuit. Anyway, enjoy your weekend everyone and hope you get to relax as well....... 🤓

    Good morning everyone, the coffee is on as always and it's Thursday which means we'll be heading over to Hudson Valley Cigars this evening. They have put out a couple of tables out front of the shop as well as the beach out back is ready. It's nice to see things are starting to get back to normal, just taking it slow to ensure that there's not a second round ove the COVID hit the area. Enjoy all....... 🍻

    Good morning all, the coffee has been on since 0420 and it's already "Hump Day". Ordered a new man cave for the backyard yesterday, replacing the old 8' x 12' shed (been there for probably 20+ years) with a new 10' x 16' model from Stoltzfus Structures, LLC (Amish built out of PA): https://www.mysheds.com/

    They're custom built and take an average 6 weeks to done and delivered depending what features you want. Should be nice when it arrives and I know that we'll have years of smoking enjoyment as well. Anyway, enjoy everyone and remember to be safe out there...... :biggrin:

    Good morning all, the coffee is on and it's back to work Monday already. We had a great weekend overall: West Point Graduation went off without a hitch (I actually got to drive in the convoy - press corps); smoke a couple of top shelf stogies; found a new brewery in Sugarloaf, NY yesterday; finished up the weekend in Newburgh at the waterfront and a stop at the brewery. Hopefully it's a quiet week and things start to get back to normal. Enjoy everyone and continue to be safe out there....... 👍

    I haven't said good morning in a while, and I guess I can't do it today either, but I can wish everyone a good afternoon and a happy weekend! Cigar lounges have opened here as well, but I've not visited any yet. I tend to like my own porch in the warmer months, but may venture out to one soon. I also had to start ordering online, which I don't prefer, as I'd rather give my local B&Ms the business, but I've gotten used to getting them delivered now.
