Greetings all! Been lurking and learning for about 3 months now. Ended up here so many times from Google searches, I finally started skipping the middleman and just using the BOTL search bar. Now generally have a half dozen botl tabs open at a time..:woot:
Actual name is Jeremy. Live on the side of a mountain in the Appalachian foothills halfway between Knoxville and Bristol. Self employed craftsman, 1 dog, 2 kids, and 3 goats.. ;)
Been casually interested in cigars for about 15 years, (after being given what I just recently discovered were fauxhibas..) but generally shied away due to b&m prices. So I generally just bought seconds and occasionally Mx2's which were the first that wowed me. Even after trying a lot of things in recent months they and La Riquezas really seem to suit my pallette more than anything else I've found. Yet.... But I have some Le Caremes on the way, have high hopes for those. Got a small desktop and a coolidor going now thanks to you guys, and having a lot of fun trying things and picking out flavor notes.
I think I've read all the intro threads, and I've been trying to use search to keep myself from asking stupid questions.. Now don't get all relaxed, it's gonna happen, I'm just trying to minimize it.. ;)
So thanks for all the help and entertainment y'all have unwittingly given me already, and I'm glad to have finally signed up so I can interact going forward!

Got in-laws on Roan Mountain and Johnson City. Welcome from SE Louisiana
Nice! Thanks! Great place to be in the summer. Just up the road a bit. If you ever want to see some amazing pictures of Roan Mountain, look up Dave Allen, (the photographer, not the others in, ahem, less respectable professions.. ;) he really does it justice...

Welcome to BOTL from Minnesota @Glassman :)

Based on your intro I'd be interested in seeing some of your glass. How about posting some pics?

Thanks @Rupe! Credit for most of our best work belongs to my wife. She's truly an artist. I'm just a craftsman. Here are a few examples..

Sorry, Not sure if I did that right, not very familiar with forum interfaces... :/
If you check out our Fb page /bellaglass, you can see a lot of our best pics from over the years..
