I know that some have constructed whole smoking rooms for their pipe smoking endeavors, so my recently acquired accessory is small potatoes in comparison, but I thought I'd share anyway.
I've taken to smoking on the front porch, and while I enjoyed the trailer park aspect of sitting out there in an old lawn chair, I started thinking about something more aesthetically pleasing and permanent. We have been talking about getting a nice bench for the porch for years, so it was very easy to sell my wife on the idea. A quick trip down the coast to visit a woodcarver, and we found this myrtlewood bench.
The price was right at $550, so we bought it on the spot. Myrtlewood is beautiful and expensive, and finding large pieces like this isn't easy, so I couldn't pass up the bargain for such a nice bench.
Here it is at home on the front porch. It beats sitting on the lawn chair for sure.
