Welcome from just east of you in Indiana.

Depending on where in Illinois you are, you have access to one of the great tobacconists in America at Iwan Ries in Chicago. I made my first visit there last month and it was lovely.
 
Welcome from the Pacific NW. :)

It's true...the ladies find the pipe a much more agreeable scent. And not just the ladies. My clothes and the room itself smell much better after smoking pipes out here in the lounge than after a couple/few/more cigars. These days i keep the cigars for outside or driving.

I visited that shop 30 years ago as I was getting into cigars. I’m no fan of that city but now need to go back for pipes and tobacco!

Greetings! Could I persuade you to replace "unfortunately" with the name of your city or town?

I grew up in Livingston Co.

Welcome from Maryland! As a side note, and long story short, baseball is pretty much my life these days. Coaching has made it hard to find time to smoke my pipe! :LOL:
