this is a few days overdue as I am a low tech/low IQ casual participant here and could not figure out the best place to thank Brad.

I have been interested in vacationing in Rincon PR but, other than the alluring sites online, was having difficulty getting a personal perspective of what to expect.

I saw a post mentioning Rincon by Brad recently and pm'd him...not sure what to expect in return. I am not a regular contributor to Geeks, more of a lurker. To my surprise, he not only replied but happily answered every question I posed over a couple of days, despite the fact that I am a virtual unknown (most of my prose can be found in bourbon or rum threads!).

After a few years of quietly observing you folks, I guess I should not have been surprised. The atmosphere is warm and inclusive, folks seem to genuinely enjoy each other like old friends, and you should all know that Brad carries these positive attributes off the forums, too.

You guys have a great BOTL here, as if you didn't know.

Thanks again, Brad.

Couldn't agree more about the camaraderie on this site. It is one of the biggest reasons I even started posting in the forums and continue to do so.

Well said. The camaraderie around here never ceases to amaze me.

This truly is the best cigar site out there.  This post is further proof of that.
Yes, it's a pineapple hat.  No, you can't put your cigar out in it.
