...after a good talk with the cigar store staff, they ask me where I will smoke my cigars (thank God for Amex!). I answer 'back home', smoking bans in the US are crazy! So he suggests a spot where I can have dinner and smoke a cigar...I had two of my favorite spots in my mind for dinner (non smoking) but this is tempting. well, I went for it!

Dallas is such a great facility. You're lucky to be within driving distance.

And here it is!!!! Non-polished as requested! Why? Well, as odd as it will sound, after 12 years, stickers are STILL ON! So (thank you Karen!) why remove and polish a brand new case?

I am happy, and DD is back!!!!
