Good Morning,
I thought I might introduce myself as I am a new member. My name is Lee. I'm originally from the great state of Louisiana, but I've lived in exile in Texas for most of my life. I'm a retired firefighter. I was injured in 2012 and that brought about my retirement after 15 years on the job. As I was in my mid 30s, sitting around the house didn't appeal to me. I needed something else to do with my time, so I became a history professor/author. It's tough because my injuries left me with severe pain on a daily basis, but I make due.
I started smoking a pipe off and on back in 2016, but I was also a fairly heavy cigarette smoker. Last week I bid farewell to the cigarettes and moved over to the pipe full time. Right now, I'm smoking 3-4 bowls a day. As I'm still adjusting to life without massive amounts of Vitamin N. In the morning, I have a bowl of C&D Burley Flake #1 or Kendall Bold Kentucky Flake. In the afternoon I'll have some Prince Albert or Sir Walter Raleigh. And for my final bowl of the night, I smoke some Haunted Bookshop. The adjustment has been tough, but I'm starting to feel like I've turned a corner. I look forward to the evenings when I sit on the porch with my wife and have a pipe while listening to a baseball game on the radio. It's become the highlight of my day.
L.H.
