3 Dogs, 1 old cowboy, Mini Mountain Herf

stitch · 03-18-2009, 08:05 PM

It was a glorious day here at 7,100 ft. in the White Mountains of Arizona!
Short sleeve warm, clear, sunny and calm … I started my day at 6am, did a throat, polish and action tweak on a 1911 for a friend … Then went to work finishing up a holster for a very special old point man that we all know and love …worked on some cigar cases … oiled up a saddle I just rebuilt …
Every time I stepped out of my shop I thought …Damn, what an awesome day!
Mrs. Stitch is out of town for a week visiting her family …
So … A little after 3pm I took a break and me and the dogs sat out in the back 40 watching the mountains and smoking cigars … Well, I smoked cigars, The dogs chewed on God knows what.
Started out with a Partagas Spanish Rosado …Mmmmm OK ..But needs more kick,
Then moved on to an Olivia Angel 100 ( Thaaank you Papajohn!) …Mmmmm Gooood
Then had a La Rosa Especial Barker Hot … I do for some reason really like these.
Then had an RP Factory 2nd Robusto
And finished things off with a 5 Vegas Miami …Not bad ..Not bad at all.
All washed down with 3 pints ( And I do mean Pints ) of Guinnes Extra Stout …
Now dinner will be Home made Macaroni & Cheese and smoked Elk sausage …
Damn, Some days even with all the trials and tribulations …Life is good my friends.
Life is good.

sounds perfect, and something you can't do too often. Way to do it right.
