I smoke cigars routinely thoughout the day. Smoking one is not a special event, so I pretty much smoke wherever I am. Just due to the nature of my activities, most of my smoking is at home. When I go out in the evening, I only patronize establishments that allow me to smoke cigars.

Hi everyone I smoke on my Decking when the sun shines here in the UK, which is not that often .And I also smoke when I go for a nice walk with my Family along the seafront as I leave 10 min walk away from the Sea.Just had my first smoke of the Maduro5 Cohiba, in time I feel in time these will be a great all time smoke.
I smoke out on my deck at home. We have a screened gazebo on the deck, so in case of rain, I'm covered.......... I also frequent my local shop, which allows smoking, as well as several cigar friendly restaurants. On the weekend, the wife and I go to a local cigar bar, Havana Deluxe, every Saturday night. It is located in Raleigh NC , near the downtown area. It is a private club, and allows cigar and pipe smoking. A nice relaxing spot for us.

There is only one great place in Southern California now...well, lets say within a 30 min. drive from LAX airport.... (I've been to them all.) It's called Huckleberry's located in Rolling Hills(South of LAX about 20min. on the coast). It is a bit of a hidden gem, but the area is beautiful, they've got a fantastic lounge(free sodas and coffee!!!), great people, and believe it or not, great prices. It is worth the effort to go!
When i get the chance to it might be in my office at work or other times in my living room with friend playing a few hand of poker. What i enjoy the most is sitting on the boat watching the sunset most of the time with a beautiful gal by my side.
I love the Smoke and Ale!! Sometimes, people watching on Broadway is the way to go.
As for me, I smoke anywhere, anytime. Nobody tells me what to do, not even me.
The weather here is great, along with entertaining tourists, I usually walk around town with a cigar. Sometimes just sitting and reading at home. When I feel the need for a testosterone charged evening, it's the leather recliner, a cigar, some Bourbon, and a John Wayne Western...

Well I just moved from Arkansas to NJ where I grew up back in April so my smoking habits have changed. When I lived in Arkansas, since I lived alone, I just smoked in my apartment during bad weather. When I lived in Little Rock I found a great B&M and would go there almost daily and have a cigar or two.
Now here in NJ, I moved back in with my Mom to help take care of her while she's dealing with some medical issues. Since she stopped smoking cigarettes over 20 years ago, I respect that and smoke outside when I am around the house and want a cigar. Sometimes, if I am out with friends that smoke we light up in their cars.
I haven't had much time to check out some local B&M's that have been suggested to me but hopefully soon I'll be able to go and check them out before the weather gets too bad and I can't smoke outside any longer without freezing to death.
I smoke outside or in the garage almost all of the time. Some times I have a smoke at Castro's Back Room in Nashua. Other times at Holy Smokes (a friend of my cousin owns the store) in Manchester.

While in Denver I smoke at a great cigar store: Tewksbury and Co. A little limited on space, but the guys are great and the conversation is always nice. When closer to home I smoke at Havana Manor in Longmont, CO. Much bigger lounge, and again very nice people.
My fav spot however is Del Frisco's Cigar room. Great service (although a little pricey), and one hell of a vent system.
Cigars and More in Libertyville, Illinois is a relaxing way to enjoy a cigar and browse the humidor and wide selection. They also have free iced tea! When at home, "life is good" feelings happen with a cigar in my patio area.

I'm fortunate to have a huge roof top deck in my apt building. I'm right on the river so even in muggy midsummer NYC weather there is still usually a good breeze.
Also there is a nice pier for walkers that extends about 100 yards into the river practically right in front of my building. Good place to walk and smoke.
Wintertime is a different story ...

My home is now Rio, Brazil. Here temp rarely goes below 21 C (70 F). That means I can pretty much smoke in my apartment living room leaving all windows open (when my wife and baby girl are in their room). We are 50 yards from the beach so I also like to smoke there walking on the sidewalk. Open air cafe, you name it. I still have to experiment smoking on the sand itself...
Well, the selling point on our new home was that it had an enclosed patio where I can enjoy a cigar and watch some sports on TV. In fact I am here now.
Most weeknights are spent smoking on my front porch and the weekends are spent smoking in other locations like my Father in laws porch, vegas or wherever.
