This is the personal blog of Walt White. I am a Drafter/Designer living in Berks County, PA. I've got a fondness for Cigars, Photography, and Firearms. Take a look around and you may find something interesting regardless of how different your hobbies may be from my own.
Just before setting aside time to write this article I was editing the video for the Oliva Connecticut Reserve review on Stogie Review. In between tasks I imported my classic rock folder into Winamp and hit shuffle. The usual stuff began playing, then something came on that I haven’t heard in years. All of a [...]

I thought it would be a great way to see a city that I’ve never been to while learning a little about its [...]
At this very moment I am preparing to head down to the Spring City area to visit a very good friend of mine. This friend is directly responsible for my cigar hobby and he never lets me forget it. Before I moved to Reading, we used to hang out on a regular basis. Since the [...]
Last week we talked classic television, now lets talk classic music. Last week I needed to make a trip down to my parents house to pick up some material for a project that I am working on. While there my father and brother were talking about possibly going to a concert in Allentown. A couple [...]

As the name suggests, I’ll be recording my first impressions of a particular cigar. You should know that I am a big advocate of not judging a [...]

Yesterday, like every Friday, I headed over to the local cigar shop to have a cigar with my father. As of late we have been getting to the shop a few hours earlier than the regulars and have been hanging outside the lounge with the shop owner. Last weekend Kensington Tobacconist launched its brand new [...]

My wife mentioned that I recently had a bunch of trouble with my Windows Vista laptop and finally got it mostly straightened out. This promoted my sister-in-law to ask if I wouldn’t mind fixing [...]
Like most people with a pulse, my life revolves around routine a lot more than I would like to think it does. Every day I wake up at 4:45 AM and prepare for work. After a days work of inputting lines into AutoCAD, I make the drive home. Once home, I fall into another routine. [...]
