Report from SC Sit Down V

What a great time. We had 37 attendees. I got to meet several new people this time. As usual, we started out on Friday night with a trip to Shealy's Bar-B-Q in Batesburg, SC. This is a great place to eat some fantastic southern cooking!!!!! You'll leave very full!!!!

After Shealy's, we headed back to the house to sit by the chiminea and smoke cigars.

Here's Rebel John in the foreground, with Jim and Alan in the back:

I had my first Diamon Crown cigar that night:

Now, on to the actual Sit Down! We had some polo shirts made for this one, and here is a pic of the logo I came up with:

The first SC Sit Down had 7 attendees total. The original 7 were at this one and we decided to have another group pic made. On the table is a pic from the first Sit Down with the same people.

And now, pics of all who attended:
