Hello and welcome to the Forum from Deep in the Heart of Texas. You will find this site to be informative and the members insightful (and at times, most entertaining). Enjoy your stay!I am a Kansas boy living in the big easy. I have been a cigarette smoker for 30+ years. I smoke a pipe occasionally (inspired by my grandfather growing up). With the cost of cigarettes going up and up, and the enjoyment of my pipe, I am getting more into pipe smoking. I am basically a beginner in search of information.
