Member Meet - "Foggymountain"/NY

[ssjones]

I work up near Woodstock NY with some frequency, home of forum member "foggymountain". I don't always have much free time, but this evening was clear, so I stopped by Foggy's mountain to smoke some pipes. His smoking room is wonderful, as is the rest of his home. Most of you know Foggy is a painter with unique subjects, so it's always intriguing to see the projects he as ongoing. We shared a few pipes (Eric Stokeybye English/Oriental) and some great stories from Bruce. Foggy collects Dunhill pipes and I love seeing any new pick-ups. Tonight he showed me some Dunhill Churchwarden's he had acquired, they were really impressive. He recently moved out of NYC and I love hearing about how he grew up. Thanks for your hospitality Foggy!

Foggymountain's smoking room looks like a well-stocked and -appointed tobacconist's shop! I am pleased that you were able to spend some quality time together.

Foggy, you keep the cleanest space of any painter I know! Always fun to read about who's behind the keyboard. I think I'll have to put Bombay Court on the list.
