Yep, outside with my Landmann (wedding present from dear friends) and a Gurkha Nepalese Warrior cigar!
Life is good!!!!

That's wanting to smoke bad.

I Like The Gloved Hand Holding The Cigar!

Too Cold For Me @ 23, But Go For It, Brother!

Keep that up, & your gills won't be the only blue part of your anatomy!

duckmanco · 01-03-2010, 11:50 AM

thats quite impressive for sure and I salute you.... I just won't do it, which makes me hate winter temps. Can't VA just have 2 weeks of winter and then straight into spring?

kelmac07 · 01-03-2010, 11:51 AM

Yeah, good luck with that Andy!!

blugill · 01-03-2010, 11:52 AM

It was actually fairly warm

Yeah there was some windchill with slight gusts driving the temp down but over all better than you think it would be!
Plus I built a fire!!!

That is pretty bad, but my attempt this past week was pretty desperate. I bundled up like I was going to go skiing and braved the negative four degree weather whilst snowing to smoke on new years!

Nice setup!

Where there's a will, there's a way. Well done!

23 degrees??? Good Lord, I'm surprised the flames didn't freeze.

It's 54 here - about 50 less than I prefer it.

Nimbus · 01-03-2010, 01:21 PM

I like the mitten with cigar look.

I had an LFD Chisel today at 26* with flurries and high wind gusts while cleaning up my back yard a bit . Lit my grill in my garage/shed for short warm up breaks . Got to do what I got to do .

Tried That The Other Nite!

Definitely A Little Harder To Hold The Stick!

blugill · 01-03-2010, 03:48 PM

The mittens were Thinsulate, the warmest thing I had on hand so to speak....you just have to hold the cigar between your thumb and hand. It worked

c2000 · 01-03-2010, 04:21 PM

Good going but the wind chill is always the killer.. 20 below this moring.. I have two big buddy heaters in the garage and a twin window exhaust fan and enjoyed a Players Club belicoso while listening to the Vikings crush the Giants,, also consumed a beer and three brandy cokes.......

I don't mind it being cold but the wind can F things up.

secretsquirrel · 01-03-2010, 04:37 PM
