Just enjoying a mid-day Hoyo de Monterrey cigar after 18 holes of disc golf. Yes, disc. Haven’t played for a year and forgot I’m not half bad at it.

Ah Padron, what can I say that hasn’t already been said. You are my favorite brand and hands down my favorite cigar. Fuente’s Opus X is good. Don’t get me wrong. They are good… But if I could have a humidor filled with Padron cigars… Ok, let me rephrase that: If I could afford a humidor filled with Padron cigars, I would do so and never look back.

Not much of a post, just grabbed one of my last Cubans procured from the islands. Haven’t been travelling outside the country in a long while. Can’t wait to get back out there. Soon.

You can also see in the above photo that I ran the electrical through the outlets, but do not have them hooked up yet. There will be two circuits in total. This way I can have the heater on one and the lights and filtration on the other.
