Twice each year there is an antique festival in my area that spans over 30 miles of country roads. Fields are converted to antique dealer booths and parking lots, and people come from all over the country. Today I will be scanning every nook and cranny for rare, estate briar. Have had decent luck in the years past but mostly I find meer's that "look" expensive and are overpriced. Will be smoking a pipe with an alluring blend to try and attract as much attention to the fact that I am looking for pipes as possible. Got my Eltang t-shirt on and pipe pouch ready to go. Hopefully I will report back after sundown with good news!
