Seems there are a lot of us in the NY area, either working, or living. So in an effort to try to get together a little more often, I propose a little mini-herf organized on a month to month basis. Hell if it works out well, some of us with more flexibility can do this on a weekly or bi-weekly basis. Dan and I burn leaf almost every day. This could be a change in pace from those of you who smoke alone.

So, any ideas? Thoughts? Suggestions? Locations and times can always be worked out later.
 
I'd be interested. And with some notice, I can easily work this stuff around my weekend work schedule. It's much tougher on, say Wednesday, to be able to get out of work Friday night. But, if I knew now that on Nov 17 (for example) we were meeting up, I'd take the day off.
 
Tried to get something going in CT. So, if I have to travel........I'm up for this. The only thought I have is make it accessible to the tri-state area. Commute wise that is. I've been told, I could get lost in a paper bag.
 
Great idea Dave and we're already doing it up here in Orange County at Schlesinger's every Thursday evening. It's great to see the guys everyweek and we have a good 15 to 20 S/BOTL that show 3 out of 4 weeks a month. Keep us updated as it get's more locked in and you know when you plan on meeting and where....... :) :thumbs: :cool:
 
During the summer months, the biergarten in astoria is fine (so long as the herf isn't sponsored and is low key :cool: ). But in the winter, we'd definitely have to be indoors, so that limits us immediately. There are only a few places in Manhattan with the space for more than 5-6 people. I'd pm Geof over at cw, he seems to know every place legal and illegal to smoke inside in the city.
 
Hmmm, alright, been thinking... NYC might be the focal point of the get togethers, but hey, I'm willing to take mass transit into say Long Island or New Jersey.

Let's test this out with something simple.

Friday night, Nov. 9th. Merchants East. Those who can make it early can probably meet up at Cigar Inn (or whatever venue of your choosing) for a little pre-game. Thoughts? Suggestions? Any input is appreciated.

I should probably state that anyone is welcomed to jump in and say for example "Hey guys, I got some free time on X Date, want to get together at Y Location at Z time?" There are just so many of us in the tri-state area, I'm sure there will be some sort of gathering every week or so somewhere out there. Don't be shy now.

edit- I should probably point out that Merchant's Cigar Bar opens at 6pm. Smart casual attire required now (collar shirts, no shorts/sneakers/etc.)

Located:

62nd St. 1st Ave.
Manhattan

I'll be there around 6:30 or so.
 
Dave, the 9th of Nov. is not good for me as it's my wife and also my birthday and we're planning on 1st going to the Army vs. Rutgers football game up here at West Point. Then we will probably have an after party at our place with all my friends and relatives that go to the game. I have the same thoughts as Ralph (ilcchef2) does, I can probably make them now and then being that they are on the weekend...... :) :thumbs: :cool:
 
I am always open to meeting up with you guys if I can. We can try this out and see how it goes. I may not be able to make on those days, but we can always touch base and see where everyone is at schedule wise.
