Where Do You Usually Smoke?

[edger]

What do you not like about smoking out doors?
I can’t wait until it gets warm again to set outside and smoke.

The operative word was “had”.

Outside screened in back porch in Florida watching the various critters i feed. i’m not fancy enough to call it a lanai.View attachment 187826View attachment 187827View attachment 187828View attachment 187829View attachment 187830

Cheaper than a zoo and they let you smoke. I'm in

 

[Gojira]

Never in the house. Ever. I don't want it smelling like smoke.
So, it's outside, unless it's freakin' cold. In the garage when it's cold, and at the Cigar Box when it's cold.

 

[Singularis]

Outside exclusively. Right now that means in the garage (sadly, deattached and not insulated, so quite cold in the winter), or on a walk, which can be pleasant if the wind isn’t blowing … until the temps are consistently below 10 degrees fahrenheit.

80% in my smoking room. The rest in the Golf Club, which is in the coastal area of my town. It is the only quiet place where smokers from different countries feel united and happy. When I go to my sister-in-law's house, she lets me smoke in a shed, where there is a washing machine, a dryer and a big fridge, full of cold beers.

 

[Zeno Marx]

Outside, on the back deck, down to when it gets into the single digits fahrenheit or on a walk into the teens. I don't do the walks as often as I once did.

Wherever I'm outside. I don't mind, I have a indoor job (where I can't smoke in the office) and enjoy being outdoor when I can. If it is to windy or rains I go to my bikeshed. In 2023 I'm going to update the shack with more shelves, put some heating in it and a patio attached to it so I have a inside and a shade smoke/workspace.

If I wanted a indoor space, my preferred smoking room would be what is now my eldest son his bedroom, put a nice TV set up there with a Eames chair, a pipe cabinet, a cigar humidor and a ozone aircleaner. When he gets home from school I'm going to tell him we exchange rooms, he will get the bikeshed.

I do most of my smoking outdoors, for me, it simply goes with my enjoyment of the woods and fields. If it's rainy or cold, then in my gunshop or ranch shop.

Everywhere

Does your smoking life have to take place in one or two spots? Or do you have full reign and smoke any old place you feel like it?
For me, I am exiled to my office in the basement, and sometimes even that is iffy. It gets kinda lonely down here smoking by myself. My computer is here, so at least I have access to this forum and piping videos on You Tube. I live in Canada and for many months, outdoors is just too cold.

When the weather is nice, most of the times I'll be smoking on my porch. Recently I moved to apartment, so the porch got replaced by the terrace. During the winter, since my spouse doesn't like smoking indoors I tend to go to the nearby woods with the dog and there I have a perfect spot.

 

[ChonkyTonks]

I have to smoke outside. As much as I would love to smoke inside, our open concept home makes it hard to compartmentalize and relegate the smoke to a single room.

 

[greysmoke]

Not indoors, due to spousal objections. When the weather is cold, as it is today, I crank up my Jeep, turn on the heat and open a window. Been doing this since ‘97. Today it’s Boswell’s Christmas Cookie in a Bari Pearl brandy glass. Yes, I wear a seatbelt. It’s a good habit to have.

 

[RustiePyles CPG]

I have a kerosene heater in my smoking lounge aka my garage…

 

[ChonkyTonks]

Just set up a 10x10 enclosed canopy with a heater some chairs and a table so I can now comfortably smoke outside in the cold. It will come down in the summer when its warm. I kept this when I sold my food truck and retired. Glad I'm getting some more use out of it now.View attachment 187901

I may need to do the same.

 

[Nitrane84]

In front of the propane heater in the shed of solitude. Have to be careful when you relight with the heater though. It could lead to some nasty rim char

 

[reloader]

I may need to do the same.

Worked great. Heated with a little propane heater from Harbor freight and used some foldout reclining chairs. Should have thought of this last year.

 

[olkofri]

My car.

But if cigars, sometimes outside my building as they don't go out as much as pipes.

 

[Blue ridge smoke]

I installed a expanded media filter on my hvac system. Anything above MERV 11 rating will filter out smoke. Works great for keeping the house from smelling of smoke.

At Summer Quarters: on the deck, or under the Smoking Tree, weather permitting. In my wood shop otherwise. At Winter Quarters: on the lanai.

Pipes leave every bit as much reek in the paint, carpet, clothes and hair as any other smoking product. The smoke particles adhere to any surface. You simply don't notice it because it creeps in slowly and you adjust to it. Ask a nonsmoker to stop in and see if they notice the reek. If they don't ... their sniffer is broke.

Smoke is smoke and particles will stick but I think it's more of a volume/density thing with pipe smoking vs other forms of inhaling smoke. I'm 2 years into my smoking a pipe indoors experiment and no complaints..even from the anti-smoking crowd (mother-in-law).
