I got my first tattoo in years this past week. I had three already but my last one was done in 2010. Felt good to go back under the gun and get something that I truly care about. My wife and I own a business and my wife designed the logo for it. Due to health reasons I've had to shelf my business for at least the rest of 2017 and while a lot of people were disappointed, they also understood. Announcing this was heart breaking for me, but this will help me remember that I, and our business will be back and stick around for a very, very long time once we're back on our feet again. 

Tattoos....they're stories about our lives and our experience and we throw these stories onto our body to help us tell them to those who ask. I love them. Would love to see your tattoos and hear the stories behind them too.

Here's my most recent. The tree line from the STOUTHEART logo.

I don't have any tattoos, but I do have a handful of "signatures" from various surgeons, which definitely have stories behind them... does that count?!?

It's even better when the "signature" goes through a previous tattoo!

We had a great member and good friend here a few years back named Herfin' Chef (Wayne).  We attended a few CigarFests together.  Wayne was the ultimate AJ Fernandez fan, and had a lot of tats dedicated to AJ and his cigars.  He even got a CG logo inked. Here are some links:

Hey PhilB! Yep that's us! It'll be back in early 2018 with a whole new line up of soaps and oils. Taking it easy and getting better/raising my girls in the mean time. Thanks for the support. This being said, shoot me your contact info if you're comfortable with it. I'll send you a sample bundle of our new stuff!
