Hello,

I have been lurking around here for a good bit of time. I wanted to finally join to get more involved with this community. I haven't been smoking pipes very long, but I have been around them since I was a child. My grandfather was an avid pipe smoker and I have fond memories of sitting with him watching and smelling him smoke. I used to go with my Dad to Iwan Reis growing up and that was always quite the experience also!

These days, I am an avid cigar smoker, but also enjoy a pipe. I gravitate more to the Virginia's and Burley's and am not too big on aromatics. I have an eye for Italian and Meerschaum pipes for some reason also which can be dangerous :)


Thanks!

Welcome from the far western suburbs of Chicago. Check out the Chicagoland Pipe Collectors Club. In addition to our monthly meetings and our world famous pipe show, we have social smokes. Don't need intimidated by the name of the club. You needn't be a "collector." If you enjoy a pipe, you're welcome.
