Cigar Fest!!

Hey Guys, Just a few quick pics of what's going on over the past few days...MrDiver has been the "Host with the Most"....taking myself and others from his cigar group here in the Tampa area around to ALL the regional cigar hot spots!! Life is GOOD!!

This is how we rolled on Thursday!





Thursday was a FULL day, ridin' in the limo all day, feeling like rock stars!
We finished our day at the "Tampa Humidor" at an Ashton event......what an awesome humidor!




Starting our Friday in Ybor City......Chillin' at King Corona. The walking tour we took was fantastic. Seated below....Spiridon, MrDiver & Road Hawg.

It was definitely sensory overload. I've never been to any of the BIG SHOPS before, but this was amazing. Today is the actual Tampa Cigar Festival......it will be hard to top these past three days.

Having one great time, that is for sure. Our tour of Ybor, yesterday, was with a different guy, who is just releasing a book. This guy knew everything.

Looks like great fun.

If you were doing that where I live you would have needed to be wearing snowmobile suits.

Sweet!!! Thanks for posting the pictures.

I echo bsk's comment. Love the warm weather pictures. Went to the K-State/OU game Saturday, tailgating and all, high temperature for the day, 29.
