I have full confidence 1 will show up at my house. Whether or not it's smoked already is the question. :laugh:
 
Isy I just might stop out . Just printed directions and hopefully my boss will let me show up a little late on Tuesday thanks!!
 
Had a great time today hanging with Jose Garcia and John Gonzalez at the Habana Premium shop in Albany.
Guys the reps brought hats and ashtrays and held raffles for the items when boxes or other items were purchased.
I'd expect more of the same tomorrow at Uptown.
Have a great event Israel, The El Rey De Los Habanos guys are stand-up gentlemen.

PS: I bought a box of My Father Lancero's and wound up winning an ashtray in the raffle!
Seems I might have to change my handle to Mr.Ashtray as I keep winning the damn things!
 
Sorry that I can't make it up to Kingston, Isy. We are going to JimD's for the Cinco de Mayo dinner. We are going to Hartford early so that we can spend some time at Cabela's looking at guns. Guns and 'gars, can't beat it :thumbs:
 
Israel,
How did your event with Jose go?

It was great! A few guys from the Newburgh HERF crew showed up, along with some locals, which was great. Pepin was here with John and 2 reps. It was great sitting with him and talking to him about many different things, including the lifting of the embargo, the damage to the Cuban crops last year, his new factory, different blends he's made, etc... He is truly a great man to talk you with an unbelieveble amount of knowledge! Mr Martini and I were the Spanish speakers there so while he was telling us some stories from back in the day, we would translate for those who sat with us. I'll post some pics when I get back from the Rocky factory trip. I'll be back from there on saturday, but won't come home until sunday night. Glad all you guys got to meet him and had a good time. Hope everyone has a great rest of the week and weekend!!

Have a great time in Honduras.
It's great that you speak Spanish and that George (Mr.Martini) was there to translate too. My experiences with Pepin make me want to learn Spanish again (took it in high school) so that we can communicate better. Jose is such a nice guy, it really makes you want to be able to carry a conversation on with him.
He seems to be very willing to share his experiences with those that can communicate with him, You're lucky that you have that ability.
