Hey everyone! Greetings from the western NC mountains! I've been smoking for well over a decade and have enjoyed my journey through various pipes and tobaccos! I was turned away from aromatics fairly quickly and stayed with Burley and VA blends for a good while. Over the past year I have developed an affinity for English/Orientals and VaPer's. I am fortunate to be able to smoke 7-10 bowls a week and enjoy the reflective experience that smoking a pipe can provide.
I enjoy high-adventure hobbies such as whitewater kayaking and rock climbing and have been able to bring a pipe and tobacco (or three) on most endeavors. A few years ago, while on my second trip down the Grand Canyon, I was able to smoke my meerschaum churchwarden while enjoying the Nankoweep Grainery view. Truly an awesome experience to enhance with a pipe and some good tobacco! I look forward to communicating/collaborating in these forums and enjoying the welcoming community that pipe smoking has developed.
Cheers!
