So apparently I am going to be leaving tomorrow morning at 4:30 am to an undisclosed location for an undisclosed amount of time.
I was given the instructions by my wife in front of all the family and friends after cake tonight. She has listed the itinerary to pack, and told me it will be in the 90's F. I have no idea where or what we are doing, but she has been planning this for almost a year....I guess once in a while I can be surprised.
Oh yeah, Jon; I guess it isn't what we were talking about in chat the other night haha.

I am a lucky man who's wife is pretty cool. I just wish I could find out how long it was so I knew how many cigars to bring along...

Wouldn't you like to know?
Take 10and hope for Cuba. Gets you through long enough to find some others without looking like you planned for it. Also if not you can say it is all about spending time with her of no good cigars there

Send Vegan702 a message. He has the skinny on everything Vegas. He's also a big-time golfer, so if you play, he's your man!! As for cigar stores, he has lockers at B&Ms all across the city!! Have a great time!

You are a lucky man! Enjoy your time at Vegas.

I was recently in Vegas for work but didn't have a lot of free time at nights. I was able to go to Casa Fuente one night; get a Mojito man! During lunch, I did look around for cigar shops near where I was working, but it had to be within the immediate vicinity. The only place that I found was Las Vegas Cigar Company, which I wouldn't recommend. On my way back to the airport, I found another place called The Havana Cigar Bar. It was probably an amazing place in its heyday but the cigar selection is really bad. It did have great seating and a bar.

Of course, you should check out places off of the strip like Casa Fuente, Rhumbar, etc... have fun! I recommend Rhumbar if you want to have a drink and cigar in a nice outdoor setting.

I think Rich's suggestion is good... ask a local because I had little luck.

First day down, we are dead tired and going to bed at 11 Vegas time...yeah I know.

Walked part of the strip while smoking a Mag 46. Hot as hell with the sun beating down on you. Then we somehow magically ended up at Casa Fuente...imagine that! Had to start the day off at Casa with a Fuente Queen B and a mojito. Never had a maduro regular line, so I thought I would give it a try. Not a stick I will be searching out again as it was lacking the full flavors from the start. It ended well, but needs more up front. After showing the ol' lady how to play roulette, we chilled for a bit then had supper. What can you think happened next? Casa Fuente for a Casa Fuente Corona Gorda. I know I shoul have had the lance but was pressed for time. If only I knew how bombed the wife would get drinking in the casino, I would have snatched up the lance.
So that is my first day in a nut-shell. I don't think you guys want to read all the stuff that will be going on in the next few days, but today was a great bday. I love being able to sit and enjoy a cigar inside with other like-minded people around.
Good night, and have a good one!
