"Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil... Therefore, as tongues of fire lick up straw and as dry grass sinks down in the flames, so their roots will decay and their flowers blow away like dust; for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty and spurned the word of the Holy One of Israel." - Isaiah 5:20,24

Add me to the list. 11 and snowing here and I'm on the deck with a RA Specially Selected. Ive got my Portable Heater Buddy at my feet, wearing 2 fleeces and my hunting parka, fingerless gloves and a sheepskin trapper hat on.

It's awesome!

Edited to add: on Friday night when Appliance Brad joined me on the deck it was 10 with 40mph gusts and it was snowing sideways.

I enjoy smoking a cigar while it's snowing. Quiet, serene, watching the flakes fall.

That's a Padron 6000 series out of their core line. Talk about great sticks for the money, they range about $5.50 to $9.00 for the various vitolas.

What a great stick...just finished this and realized I only have one left...bummer.

I agree on the Padron standard line, but prices have shot up through the roof over the years. I can remember buying boxes of Padron Londres maduro for $53 a box... where have the good times gone!?!?

I HATE ICE!!! We had snow last night, changed to sleet, freezing rain and now raining, heavy. I shoveled snow last night so I didn't have to deal with 2" of ice. I smoked a Diesel maduro while doing that. This morning I got up to go to work. No dice. They didn't plow the road which was now...2" of ice. So, I had to use a day due to this stupid ice. I don't drive in ice as the truck has a mind of its own and wants to slide in the opposite lane most times. I grabbed a La Gloria Cubana Serie R natural and started on the 1/4" of ice we now have and make sure the downspouts are open. It is now raining too heavy to even scrape the ice we have. I am enjoying the cigar though watching the rain, hopefully it is melting the ice. The air temperature is now 50* so that should help. Did I mention that I hate ice?!

I hate ice and snow and cold climate in general petr. Glad I dont have to deal with that shit.

I love snow and really don't mind the cold, so long as I'm dressed for it. Ice though...I'd rather have 3 feet of snow over any amount of ice.

It's not as brutal as it looks, but my first magnum was a S&W 329PD so that was my only comparison to it in .44mag. It does weigh around 39 oz. and that unfluted cylinder helps put a bit of the weight to the front.
