Hello from Orange County, California

[Wheels]

I gave up smoking over 40 years ago because it was bothering my lungs. But I saved my pipes and some tobacco. I've missed it, especially when outdoors on cool evenings. I'm 84 now and I'm going to try it again and see how it goes. Maybe in small doses and done right I can enjoy it again.

I discovered I have forgotten how. My first light up burnt my tongue and was nasty. So, I've been lurking here and learning all over. Thanks to the informative posts I am getting the knack again. I've collected a few pipes, but nothing expensive. Tonight I tried my Chacom Excelsior 112 with meerschaum cup liner and it was pretty good.

Take if easy, and perhaps smoke outdoors to reduce the density of smoke surrounding you. You should have year round good smoking weather.

How:
Under your avatar, (top right, left most of three symbols) you choose "Account Details", which brings up "My Account". "My Location" is halfway down. Whatever you're comfortable with- town, city, county, state. province, etc.

Welcome from Michigan! Glad to hear you saved your pipes and tobacco; I'm sure there are some gems in there that you would've sorely missed had you gotten rid of them.
