It gets irritating not having anywhere to smoke a cigar during winter except the cluttered, cold, dank, dark garage. I always thought the basment would work, but that's not the case. You can smell the smoke all through the house for some reason. Even upstairs! I'll eventually get an exhaust system put in down there as part of remodeling the basement, but until then I'm stuck. I can't wait until the nice weather again. When I can sit on the porch and enjoy a cigar in peace and comfort.
