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.
I am passionate about cigars. So passionate, in fact, that I spend a fair bit of my time contributing to a popular cigar review site, Stogie Review. Over the past three years, my partners and I, have been traveling to the annual IPCPR trade show as members of the press. Press coverage is something that [...]
Last week I celebrated my twenty-eighth birthday. Ever since turning twenty-one, I haven’t seen birthdays as the exciting days that I used to. I suppose in my youth, each year drew me closer to the legal drinking age. Once I crossed that milestone, there wasn’t anything else to get excited about. At twenty-five, I received [...]

Since many of my visitors know me from Stogie Review, you are probably well aware of the annual Cigarfest event put on by Cigars International. Just like the last year, I was fortunate enough to attend as a member of the press and report on the event. With Jerry and Brian busy, it was just [...]
Over the last week I have been posting a variety of things that revolve around creative writing. Just as you may have guessed, I’ve been bitten by the creative writing bug and have been taking advantage of it to create content for my personal blog. On my latest post, I received a comment that I [...]
A Beautiful Spring Day Saturday was beautiful. Not only was it the first day of Spring but it was also the first day in nearly a week that wasn’t tainted by cloudy skies and persistent rain. This little ray of sunshine was just the kind of motivation required to stretch the legs and do something [...]
I like to think of myself as a mans man. I love building things and getting my hands dirty. Having spent more than a decade in the cabinet industry, I’m always interested in seeing a new tool operate or getting my hands on something new for around the house.
