Hi folks. I'm an American who married a German woman while in Africa and thus find myself living in Germany for now. I smoked a corncob in my young years while fishing the creeks and rivers of home. At that point in life I was too young to smoke (about 12) and stopped completely until recently. Now in my 40s I've taken up smoking the occasional pipe. I'm fortunate to have a wife who is tolerant of this indulgence however out of concern for her I do all my smoking outdoors. I enjoy a pipe while surrounded by the natural world, often while birding.
