Hello and welcome from Virginia!
Which part of VA? I'm from Blacksburg, and have immediate family in Roanoke. Way back in the 1780s, my branch of our family came from Switzerland (via Philadelphia) and settled in Patrick County. Still lots of them there in the Stuart and Woolwine areas.

I know, too much information. ;-)

No matter where I live, the Blue Ridge mountains of Southwest Virginia will always feel like coming home to me. Best spring water in the world, too.

Just have to say, I'm not a person who "socializes" online frequently ... but I don't think I've ever received such a warm welcome from an online community. I think I'm going to enjoy hanging out here.

Smoking a pipe (or anything, really) these days can make one feel a bit isolated. Even like a pariah at times. It's nice to know that there are kindred spirits out there. :)

Illegitimi non carborundum, y'all.. (Fake Latin, I know, but it has a ring to it.)

Hello and welcome from north central Texas. You will find this form very welcoming and most helpful. Use the filter search option for loads of information. Any questions you may have most likely have already been asked and answered. There is a wealth of information (some quite humorous) out there.

I certainly have already found it both welcoming and helpful. And apparently there are more pipe smokers right here in Texas than I ever knew about.

Best regards,
