Welcome! In honor of Sturgis Bike Week, my photo was taken 5 years ago in the Badlands on my way with my brother and MC. My beard was even trimmed short back then! I hardly recognize that young man.
By the enthusiasm shown in the number of welcomes, you hit on all the triggers for us curmudgeon pipe smokers - Female, "grandpa", old pipe restoration, asking advice, and sitting on a porch in the Black Hills! You will do well on this forum, and I look forward to hearing more from you.
Maybe some year I could stop out and smoke on your porch. Then again, why the hell would a lady invite some random biker trash to her home.
