That is super sweet Mark. It sounds like your son-in-law just needed an excuse to bond with you. I wish my father would smoke a cigar with me, but alas, he thinks it is a nasty habit akin to cigarette smoking.

Yes, they were married last July.

The first time we met, my wife and I sat him down in a chair in the corner and we grilled him for about 20 minutes. Now, he stands about 10 inches taller than me and he later admitted that I scared him.

I hope I too get that lucky to have something like this great hobby to bond with the future SIL. Oh yeah, he dang sure better know how to hand a gun as well. If he can't protect himself how can I ever expect him to protect her...lol.
Congrats sir!!

He is a good guy; needs a bit of direction and ambition though.
Yes, he does shoot. That's another thing he has invited me and my son out to do. Perhaps another bonding opportunity.

I began to steer him this way. Perhaps he will make a showing someday?

No you don't.
Have the experience with your sons.

When he is ready for that humidor, I will be sure to send him your way!

I said almost.
I do plan on that if they are interested I would like to get something from each of their birth years and save it until they are old enough
