Tobacco in the Spring

[mso489]

Wednesday March 20 is the first day of spring. Any suggestions on variations

in the tobacco you smoke related to the change in season? Brighter? Lighter?

What for a change of pace? I know most of us may take a while to make an

My summer outdoor activities are are much more relaxed, fishing, kayaking, hiking, etc for which I prefer a heavier, stronger smoke.

This will be my first pipe smoking spring as well. I haven't acquired enough tobacco or tried enough to know which may be better for warmer weather as opposed to cold.
