NEW MEMBER- HELLO

[burleyboy75]

Hello. Wanted to take a moment and introduce myself. New member. Loving this forum and reading about others experiences with the pipe.

80s kid, youngest of 7 with an older dad who smoked a pipe, captain black only. He passed 2005. Took up the pipe a year or so ago because it reminded me of him and I was looking for something to help me slow down a bit.

Im a firefighter/paramedic in ohio and everything always seems like go go go, just in general with the world really.

Still trying to figure out what tobaccos I like, so far everything ahahaah. Still honing my techniques.

Married with 4 young kids. thanks for having me.

Hope this is the right place for this.

My initial post was a general question I put in the new member welcome section! Welcome!

Welcome from New Jersey. My situation is somewhat similar to yours, in the age category, remembering my father each time I light up and trying to slow down a bit.

Welcome from New Jersey. My situation is somewhat similar to yours, in the age category, remembering my father each time I light up and trying to slow down a bit.

its a damned cliche, but I cant tell you how fast time is moving. It really bothers me.

i was 20 when my dad died and was just on the heels of teenager jerk days. We never really had a lot of time to really “get to know each other.” So many things he did that i thought were dumb then appeal to me now-enjoying a pipe, gardening, fishing. Its strange to me, but just what I seem to need now as I feel im floating along at times.

thanks for sharing and the warm welcome!
