    Mike B thanks buddy!! Love the 10th Anniv. cigars, it's always nice to try a new one I haven't tried before. I'm going to do some light work in the yard tomorrow, and give one a whirl. Funny, I had a stogie in my mouth when I was opening the gift today, and a Bourbon in the other hand. I'll get a shot of burning one tomorrow (actually today!).

    This SS thing is/was a great idea! Thanks to Paul bunion for setting it all up!

    Hope you like the cigars. Our local shop had everything but Agusto Reyes. I asked the owner to pick something similar.
    Yes theSS is cool. My wife got a kick out of out of it too. And she's usually a bit of a Grinch

    I am so glad you liked the book-- you are pretty tough to shop for and it seemed like most of the stuff I thought of didn't actually exist...

    The wife has skills, but she spelled Husqvarna all kinds of wrong?!

    Cool saw. Your man cave anywhere as impresive as Dex's?

    I didn't know if I could cheat and lie about my return address!!! They wouldn't let me ship without one even. LOL

    I think those will fit on the 261C-M too!

    As for the TreeStuff head band, balaclava, neck warmer thingy? It's totally you.

    I hit the jackpot from my Secret Santa!! Maple syrup, maple candy, maple covered nuts, and pancake mix!! It appears that all of this comes from an awesome place in Vermont called Couture's Maple Shop Bed & Breakfast in Westfield, Vermont.

    Check this place out. It looks awesome.

    A special thank you to my SS....who if I have guess.....Burndatwood?

    Thanks again to my SS who got me the Webber grill and accessories - can't wait to try it out :grizz: !

    I'm terrible at guessing, so SS I'd love to know who you are - the shipper was Amazon - you aren't Jeff Bezos, are you??? :D

    I think they will fit the 261 too JRSDWS. But if they don't, they should fit nicely on the 661 that I want sometime this year. :saw::saw::saw:

    They are nice glasses. I am going to make sure I use them for ice water as much as beer! Gotta stay healthy so I can enjoy burning wood as long as possible!!!!!

    If you shoot Chvymn99 a PM I think he can tell you.:thumbs:

    I'm pretty sure mine was from Dex... he dropped too many hints here and on another site...I jut got home from the family christmas at dads, my sisters and my grandmas, so today was my relax day...I picked up the rest of the wood from the trees i dropped at dads this morning and came home to open my SS gift..

    Dex didn't have to.. He shouldn't have.. He won it and I thought the guy had a couple to give away... he was super excited about it for his awesome man cave, but the generosity of him to send it to me is mind blowing. I don't deserve this. And he threw in a gift card to boot. It's almost like he measured my fireplace.. I'm grateful beyond words... He's going to get something from me that I started making and didn't have time to finish, especially now, its the least I can do.

    I guess I need to move my barn fan off the mantle and clean the place up a bit....
