Smoking in the winter?

Garage for me in the winter.

That's pure Detroit right there

I have an absolutely wonderful girlfriend that lets me smoke at home (we live in a small apartment, so no garage option for me). She never complains about the cigar or cigarette stench although she doesn't smoke herself, but I do feel (slightly) bad for stinking up the apartment so the cigar consumption rate drops significantly in the winter months when the windows can't be kept open. Correspondingly pipe smoking increases exponentially, since the smell is significantly less noxious and she will even comment on how nice certain blends smell (even the ones with Latakia in them, I am truly blessed...)
And this is in the island of Mallorca when temperatures never, EVER drop below 0ºC (32F for you Americans) and rarely below 5 or 6ºC (which i estimate at around 10ºF)
OTOH, we have no cigar lounges in Spain, which sucks really hard. I'd probably trade being able to smoke cigars at home for having some of those around...

A lounge or not smoking for me in the winter.
Used to smoke in the house with a fan, the windows open, provided no rain or snow, and then a heavy dose of air freshener and febreeze for the curtains. But the Mrs has a keen sense of smell & asked me not to smoke in the house.

If there isn't much wind I'll fire up the fireplace on my back porch and sit by it. Otherwise, it's a lounge or no cigar. Dark days are ahead...

I use a propane heater underneath a large deck canopy. And when it's too cold or windy, I put a fire in the fireplace and smoke next to it. The smoke goes right up the chimney along with half the heat in the house, but hey, sacrifices...

Up here in Ontario, I heat up the garage, my workshop or just sit in the hot tub to have a cigar during the long winter....

Same here, could smoke indoors but if not really cold and not too windy...like that ole front porch.My father would smoke his cigars there and it just feels like the right spot for me too.

I'm a back door man. The garden, grill and deck is out back. The wifey is cutting up fresh veggies to grill along with some grilled baked potatoes and a couple of ribeyes. Usually have venison, but tripped on a good deal on some beef. About to finish up the Abe Flores 1975 Series Privada and have a Savinelli Nicaraguan Reserve 2007 cut and ready to roll while I grill. Perfect evening here in NE Oklahoma again!...

I'm reading all of these posts and chuckling to myself because now winter time smoking for me is having to put on socks and a sweatshirt. Hell...on the really chilly nights I have to wear a damn hat

Just rub it in you @$$....
