Snow, snow, go away...

[Benjamin]

So I'm sitting here looking at ever growing mountains of snow outside (fast approaching 3 ft total) and am practically salivating over all the cigars I've bought recently, itching to get out and have a smoke. I don't know if I can take 7+ more weeks of this... I may have to carve out some time to get out to a lounge soon.

Anyone else dealing with this? If so, what's the first cigar you will have to celebrate the end of winter?
I think mine is going to be a Davidoff Special R that's been resting since last June.

got over four feet here and smoked 5 or 6 cigars in the last week, mostly outside.

I have had one cigar in 2 weeks. We got a foot of snow last week, was descent this past weekend but one got one stick in. I want warm weather to get here, but I may be building a house, so my summer herf might not be as numerous as I had hoped.

I wish I had a video of this. Just you standing in one place with your hytop tennis shoes on, maybe swaying a little bit to and fro.... Little puffs of smoke coming up...

I just get a nice little fuzzy feeling thinking about this..

Hey from B-Lo. So sick of the snow brother...I always take a positive view of it, but this year and last have been tough! I've spent the last 2 months blowing snow nearly every day (I'm in the Southtowns). This morning was so cold, I had snot-sickles by the time I was done. I installed a gas heater in the garage that can barely keep up. Thank God for my smoking jacket! Come springtime, I'll probably fire up the Opus X I got today. And a Davidoff Nicaragua.

Today, it was standing outside watching the three little ones shovel enjoying a Tat something or another.

It snowed about every day in the last week. I decided I did not need to put the car in the garage and converted it into my own personnal smoking area.

Still can't wait for summer

We haven't had near the amount of snow you guys have had but its been pretty cold. I try to get out on the patio a few nights a week dressed in insulated hunting bibs and parka, no heater, but this week will be tough. Highs in the low 20's and we had a good amount of freezing rain tonight.

 

[Wicket]

Snow??? It's been in the high 70's in CO. I do feel for you guys

 

[jwintosh]

Can't even imagine... Will be into the 80s all week.

I'm still living in the 80s. Depeche Mode is still my favorite band of all time...

I feel for you guys!!
That was use last year and thank goodness not this year. We have had a mostly mild winter and very little snow.
I still have to go out to the garage and fire up a couple of heaters to have my weekend smokes.

Okay, so we're doing pictures now? Here's my back yard, this past November. This was only day 2 of a three-day storm that totaled 7 feet and left 12 people dead:

80s would be so nice right now. I would be grateful for just the 20s! When I wake up to see a high of 4 degrees, the last thing I think about is bundling up to go outside for a cigar. I may have to convert my shed to a heated lounge.

 

[Tim H]

Holy crap Zippo!

 

[ZippoGeek]

Holy crap Zippo!

We get mountains of snow here; our reputation is well-deserved. But in that November storm, even the most hardened Buffalonians were like, "DAMN...this is a lot of snow!"

 

[Tim H]

Oh I bet man. The pictures of your snow storms on our local news are impressive.

I'm still living in the 80s. Depeche Mode is still my favorite band of all time...

+1 for Depeche Mode (especially Martin Gore). I saw them for the 4th time in 2013.

This is the view towards Lake Ontario as we speak.. Not the best place to live, for a guy who hates cold/snow.. But man is it beautiful in the summer. I hadn't had a cigar since November, and couldn't take it any longer and made the 50 minute drive to to Buffalo to a bar that allows smoking. Had an amazing Rocky Patel Decade and a couple of brews. Look forward to going back ASAP.
(sorry about the picture size, if there is a way to make it smaller, I would love to learn, thanks)
