    Old Virginia are some great guys, and JB Hayes went way out of their way to help me out. They also give you empty boxes in exchange for a $2 charity donation

    I actually kinda miss VA...

    Everyone I know has something going on this particular weekend! I might actually be going up to NYC on saturday to sunday, maybe. However, I'd love to get together friday night or sunday night. Maybe Shelley's backroom? Its a cigar bar with a restaurant. A couple of us have Herf'd there before.
    The in addition to the shops listed by Pyro and Maui, there is Signiture cigars in Bethesda and DC. They have a pretty good selection. My personal favorite is Bethesda Tabacco and Drappers. Drappers closes at 6 i think on weekdays and is open till 3pm on saturday.

    Drapper's isn't open on Sunday, but OVTC is, and so is Bethesda Tobacco. I'd be down for sunday afternoon sometime, but I'll be coming back from NYC, so I'm not sure if I'd be there in time. Let me know what time y'all are planning on for Sunday and then I can figure out if its do-able. I'd push for mid afternoon if I can, I'm meeting a good friend from Colorado at my other good friends place in NYC to watch the CU/CSU football game and then try and relive college, no telling when I'd be able to bus back down here.

    THIS THREAD HAS BEEN THREADJACKED

    CigarDan and I are apparently doing shifts down to DC. :)

    I'll be a little busy while I'm down there, but I plan to spend Tuesday night going for a long walk downtown. Let me know if you're interested...

    BTW, how's the security situation downtown? Am I going to be harrassed if I wander around the monuments at night?
