A great brother of the leaf
 

I short bit ago I posted that I was going to Birmingham Al., without any response. Therefore I didnt think that there were any brothers in Birmingham on the Board. However, recently I saw that a new brother on the board(upin smoke) was from Birmingham, so I reached out to him. We set a time to meet at his local B&M and tonight I set out for a smoke with a new friend.

WoW..what a great B&M and what a great BOTL. He was laid back and passionate about smokes. He quickley helped me find a couple of smokes for the evening. First a Illusion then later a Anarchy.

Once in seats with a drink and a smoke I gave him a small hello gift of a few of the caronas I carry for the 30 min smoke times while working on the road. He... was however prepaired for my gift and struck back will a vengance....see below. I was blown away. http://http://i1102.photobucket.com/albums/...e55/mail32.jpg

We talked about cigars, rock and roll, work, .....etc for a couple of hours. To soon I had to call it quits and head back to the hotel to get ready for another day of work.

"Upinsmoke" was a great brother and I will call on him again for a smoke and a drink before living town.

I am On the left and Bo(Upinsmoke)is on the right.

Well said Kevin! This is one of the great points about smoking cigars...They really do bring people together. It is a common bond that we all share no matter what other interests we have we will always have one that unites us...the love of cigars!

Glad you guys had a good time!

Sometimes I wish I traveled more for work and had opportunities to meet other BOTL's.

I enjoyed last night very much. None of my buddies smoke so it was nice to smoke and talk cigars with someone that shares the passion. Stephen is as great guy. I hope we get to get together a few more times before he has to leave Birmingham. He gave me a gift as well. An AF corona, La Herencia Cubana box-press corona and a Diesel Unlimited(smoked it last night). Thanks for the smokes and hitting me up to herf.
