  • BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over the next few weekends BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

I am fairly new here but I am becoming more and more interested in starting a HERF. I am near New Orleans and we could do a New Orleans HERF, and I thought if we planned a Gulfcoast HERF Biloxi, or Gulfport we might get a larger participation. I guess I am throwing this out for any confirmations about interest in planning a HERF in the Louisiana, Mississippi GulfCoast. Please let me hear from you.

There aren't too many brothers along the coast, I think there's a few in NOLA... I'm not too far outside Mobile, AL.. so a NOLA herf would be a bit far for me, although it would prob get the best results.. The casinos in Gulfport or Biloxi might be an option, but it would have everyone traveling.. lol

We need to start and take it from there. I'm in Slidell so Covington is half way or we can do a once at my place and once at your place. The one who travel's eats Free!

There is a B&M in Covington with TV sets and big chairs but the last time I went in there the smoke was so bad I had to leave, couldn't breath. I guess we could find a bench on the lakefront in Mandeville, or a couple of lawn chairs under one of the oak trees. We could bring our own smokes to the lakefront. Next time I'm over there I'll check to see if they have any posted restrictions

Sounds like a plan, I work for Northshore Technical Community College, we are moving to Lacombe in a week or so. So we may be able to meet in Lacombe. I go into the office on Monday and Tuesday at 1200 pm. Wednesday through Friday 8 to 4:30.

I'm about 10 minutes from LaCombe off Thompson Rd. Grab a smoke after work is great with me, once you get settled in maybe you can recommend a place. I'll keep my eyes open for a park in the area or we can sit in a couple of rocking chairs on my front porch!

sounds really good I have been looking for a friend to smoke with. My schedule is new and I am getting use to it. I have a Monday night class and Tuesday night class in Mandeville now and Lacombe soon. I also have a class in Kenner on Thursday nights.

I'm sure we can work around your schedule and find a couple of hours to enjoy a smoke. Is later in the evening after class better for you? Let's have the first SELA HERF on my front porch. Short ride for you from LaCombe and easy access to I-12 to get back to Hammond. I'll provide your sipping drink of choice. I normally like a bit of Black Label or Single Malt but I'm sure I can find something you will appreciate.

Yes a Gulf Coast herf will bloom from this! A single malt is the trick, I am new to it, but I do love it, also rye, but don't go out of your way.

You can always send a note if you're going to be closer to New Orleans. We could meet on the River by Jackson Square. Momma can visit the sites!

Pm either Nogills2 or me for information. We'll sit on my front porch in rocking chairs and maybe have a drink or two. Looking like a good time and if you can make it let us know, we'd love to have you!

I'm on Tupelo Lane off Thompson Rd. If you want to do some swapping bring a couple of extra smokes.
