Hanging out with the Missus by the stove tonight. Got it a balmy 80° in here, we got our sweaters on, and are relaxing since the kids are now in bed. Smoking an Oak & Iron "Da' Boss" cigar inspired by and created for Dewayne Noel (some of you here will know who he is.) Probably should've styled my hair down but I'm already showered and hate going to bed with gel in. Forget it, I'll just look like a harpy eagle. 😁 Bonner of Ireland fisherman sweater Wrangler shirt and jeans Allen Edmonds tassel loafers with a natural rubber sole

Ladies and Gentlemen, We have come to the end of another year. If you are like me there were some great moments and some difficult moments. But if you made to this point and are reading this you are blessed. As we enter into 2026 there are some uncertainties and unfortunately one is how this community will change with the beginning of the pay membership. Please don’t get me wrong I am not complaining I understand that everything cost. But for me, I had to evaluate and look and what is available and what I can do. Unfortunately at the moment I will not be staying on as a paying customer, I am hoping that this will not come to past but if it does then I wanted to take this opportunity to thank all of you for your friendship, your support, and your kindness. I have met some outstanding people in this community and all of you have been a great influence in my life over the year that I will take with me from here on out. I have learned a lot from each of you that money cannot buy. And for this I am truly grateful. I wish the best for all of you and I will continue to hold the values and principles that I have gained from this community and each of you. In His Service, Anthony Buntyn

I’ll be back to posting soon. Just have been spending time with my family and off for vacation. No special OOTD’s while on vacation. See y’all in 2026 hopefully.
