I Got Married!... And a Pipe With Mark Twain

[pipesmokingtom]

This weekend, my wife and I tied the knot at the Silver Queen hotel in Virginia City, Nevada, 4 years after we had our first date there. It was a great experience.
After the ceremony, I was able to have a pipe there. The Silver Queen is located in the building that Samuel Clemens first used the pen name Mark Twain at the newspaper that was housed there.
It was pretty neat to stand in the spot where he stood and smoke a cob like he smoked.

Congrats! both on the marriage and the smoke! Now all you have to do is get your wife to smoke a pipe. It worked for me! ::

I have tried. No luck. I'm just happy she has no issues with me doing it - even in the house on occasion!

Thanks to everyone for the well-wishes! She is truly a saint for putting up with me the first few years until I grew up. I'm just glad she saw something in me worth hanging on to!
