Sams Boat – Clear Lake

Last Saturday my oldest daughter, Amanda, invited us out for a family dinner down in Webster, Texas. I mentioned to Punkie that we should head down early and drop by Sam Boat off Clear Lake and enjoy a few beers before dinner. She thought that was a great idea and I also decide to have our son meet us there. I had another reason in mind, I wanted to smoke a stogie before dinner, hehehe

We arrived and found a table over looking the water without any wait. My son, Aaron, arrived and we were able to enjoy our cigars. He lit up an Alec Bradley Connecticut and I went for the American. Both are great smokes but I really enjoyed just spending time together and sharing a common passion!

Alec Bradley – Prensado

Last Friday night I tried for the first time the Prensado by Alec Bradley. It was a stogie I’ve had in my humidor for almost a year so I was sure it would be a good one. I got settled on our patio with Spotify “Cocktail” channel playing through our outdoor speakers. Punkie and I sat outside and enjoyed a great evening.

The Prensado was a very good smoke and I may end up buying a box. The only thing I could find wrong was the draw was a little tight. Perhaps a couple of passes with an auger might be needed.

Rhonda and I made a trip to see our youngest daughter, Ashley, and future son-in-law Kevin who also likes a good cigar! The place to meet up was Twin Peaks in Webster, Texas for some good food and cold beer! Oh and nice stogies too!

Throughout the afternoon I smoked a Alec Bradley Black Market, H Upmann Sun Grown, and a Rocky Patel Zen. I gave Kevin a Black Market and My Uzi Weights a Ton which he really enjoyed. The weather was nice and it was a great way to spend an afternoon!

We went back to TGIF Friday’s in Katy, TX and I was able to enjoy a new stogie, the Alec Bradley Connecticut. While I’m a big fan of the Alec Bradley brands this is not my most favorite. Don’t get me wrong, it was a great smoke, but I just prefer the Black Markets or American currently.

At any rate is was a great evening to sit at the bar and light up a good cigar!

Here I am relaxing at the TGI Friday in Katy, TX by the Katy Mills mall.
I’m smoking an H. Upmann sun grown robusto. I recently picked up a 5 pack of these cigars and they are quickly becoming a favorite on my list.
Oh and for those of you who don’t know me, my wife Rhonda has a nickname – Punkie. I sometimes give her nickname a little twist and call her Punker.

We had another enjoyable time at the Serious Cigar Party 2014. From left to right that is my buddy Lee Steele, Chris LittleJohn, Myself, and my son Aaron Kirkland. Two other friends Mike and Scott attended but had to leave early. It was a great night of smoking cigars, eating good food, and drinking. This was my 3rd time to attend the Serious Cigar’s customer appreciation party. It’s a must attend if you missed it or haven’t joined in the fun yet.
