I have my very first pipe in hand(a Savinelli Tevere)!Furthermore, I smell the wonderful fragrances of the tobacco I ordered with it. But...Mother Nature is delaying the great desire I have to begin my first experience in pipe smoking. I have been patiently waiting for my order to come in, daydreaming of my future enlightenments that I am sure to experience with my 'Sav'. Yet, as luck would have it, those moments are being postponed because of thunderstorms and rain.. UUGGHH! I have to smoke outside because my wife forbids it inside. I wouldn't anyway, seeing as how we have kiddos...
I do have to mention how AWESOME my wife is! She put up with my cigarette smoking for years. So when I told her that I had been researching tobacco pipes 'hobby', and was interested in trying it, imagine my surprise when she said that it was a neat idea! She saw that I was passionate about starting the hobby, and didn't give me the 'look', or anything. She really is amazing! I hope she enjoys the room notes of most of the tobaccos I try, and keeps encouraging me to pursue it..(I'm sure there will be new pairs of womens shoes frequently lying around the house from now on.. heh heh..)
In the meantime, I will read more of the great and educating posts that you all share...(wow this pipe is handsome!)
