I'm a bit late to this party, but wanted to say, YOU DEFINITELY DID THE RIGHT THING HERE! I mean, sleepless nights, anxiety, restlessness, worry, concern, episodes of depression, or.... RED OAK? That's a no brainer for me!
Thanks guys, I always feel better after posting this stuff on here. I really start wondering if I'm nuts and then you guys come in and back me up! At the very least, I know I'm not alone! You know, the tree actually looks really healthy, even at the scar. No real rot at all, and it's been 3 years so I would think it would have started already. But man, IF....! That is a BIG BIG BIG tree, thick and really tall. One can only dream! Oh, I'm WAAAAAY out of room! This is being split and stacked in my neighbors yard!! Thank goodness he's a nice guy, we get along great and I do lots of favors for him, so he had no problem with it.... I'm all stocked up with about a hundred good cigars in the humidor right now, so I'm ready to go. But I'm going to have to wait for next year before I get anymore, I'm definitely at my storage limit overflowing into my neighbors yard. That's my story right now, and I highly doubt I will stick with it!!! Perdomo Champagne 10th Anniversary Torpedo's... Got some Perdomo 10th Aniv's from my secret santa in Dec, and love them. Got a box of the Torpedo's... http://www.famous-smoke.com/perdomo champagne torpedo cigars/item 28108 I've also been tasting some Tabak Especial Dolce coffee infused Belicoso's made by Drew Estate I was give as a gift recently. Wow, they are awesome! I'm working on getting a few boxes of those made for me with no labels on them so I can put my own labels on them (boat name...) to give out to guests... If you like coffee, these are really nice! http://www.famous-smoke.com/tabak+especial+belicoso+dulce+cigars/item+35524 .
No, not even close! That picture is deceiving, those are quarters and 6ths of a 22"er. I have to split them and stack.. they are in a tempo pile next to where they will be stacked. I just wanted to get them out of da woods/ticks!
