Been a long time pipe admirer and only smoking for the last 3 years or so. Have fallen in love with it. Found this forum while seeking some help with a recent family gift. Will post to the Meerschaum pipe forum under pipe talk.

well welcome.. we have many members from your area.Not far outside Chicago in the western suburbs.
Pre-Covid (such a common term these days) I worked in the city, so I went to Iwan and Ries pretty much twice a month and sat in the cigar lounge and drank with buddies there. Its one of our favorite past times. I also enjoy cigars (not as much as some of my other friends.) I have met some wonderful individuals over time at IR in the lounge. Probably most favorite winter activity.well welcome.. we have many members from your area.
