Greetings from Alaska! I’ve been taking advantage of the wealth of information on this web site for quite a while so I decided to sign up for an account to say thank you and maybe contribute a bit to the amazing information here.
I have been smoking a pipe casually (always outside, a couple of times a week to once a month depending on the weather, my schedule, etc.) for 30 years. I smoked cigars before the pipe but gave up those once my kids were born; they love the pipe smell and hate the cigars.
I’ll try to post a picture of my pipe collection. They’re mostly from my dad. He’s passed away for some time now but his pipes are a cherished keepsake to me. In fact, everything in the photo is from my dad’s stuff except the whiskey flask, two pipes and three lighters.
I’ll happily write later about growing up in a pipe-smoker’s house, filled with what are now known as codger tobacco smells and drug store pipes, but for now, greetings and thanks for having such a great on-line resource for pipe smokers.
Sincerely,
Joe H
