Last night I came home to a box from Pipesandcigars.com. I ordered four tobaccos: Lane 1Q, John Bull, Sutliff Black Cherry Cavendish, and CH Match. Today I ended up going through the tornado-like disaster that is my shed/workshop, and so I fired up the 1Q, and I was very pleased. I only ordered one ounce, and I think I smoked half of it already!
Anyway, we had severe storms Wednesday evening, and a giant black walnut tree in my chicken yard decided to tip over and completely crush the shed and block the road next to my house. Insurance claim is filed, so I guess I won the "new shed lottery", though I had no intention of playing. Over 30+ years' worth of screws, nuts, nails, hoo-haas, and electrical stuff scattered like popcorn all over the place. All my power hand tools were on the wall that took the direct trunk hit, but amazingly they all survived. The tree is gone already - trimmers were here like two hours after I called (I think they smelled insurance money). No one hurt, so that's an enormous blessing. My wife and youngest son had just driven down that road 15 or 20 minutes before the tree fell.
