    I hear you. The pipe forum has been slow. I have been busy and have just been checking the boards once in a while.

    Same here. Still waiting on word from Steve if C.C will run my blends. If not I'll be posting the recipes on my thread.

    Having a bowl of C&D Exhausted Rooster out of my Kaywoodie Relief Grain. I've really grown to like Kaywoodie and the drinkless stem, it just works well for me. And their pipe desing tends to be more traditional 1950's type.

    Just got back into this habit again after 30 years...I developed a bad case of TMJ and had to stop smoking pipes but now....it's so good to start over again. Bought a couple of new pipes to start again...Savinelli Rustic with a nice big bowl and love it. I used to have a lot of this brand and always loved how it was so easy to break in and enjoy great tobacco from the first bowl and it was like I'd never been away. As far as tobaccos go....I'm pretty open to anything that is good and will be buying up a lot in the next few months as it keeps pretty fresh if you know how to store it...which I do. Nothing better than to have about 20 different blends to enjoy...variety being the spice of life.

    Hey. It's me! Been gone so long Walt's emporium has disappeared. Anyway, House on market, Going to Clear Lake so I have some water to sail my boat in. Also taking the plunge and gonna order a Blue Water sailor so I can sail the Gulf and Caribbean. Name of the new boat will be "Sail'n Somewhere. because that's what we'll be doing.

    I was starting to wonder if you'd sailed off the edge of the world.

    Sounds great! I am glad you are doing well. Welcome back to the forum.

    Too ornery to sail off the end of the world. Just skirt the edges. It's been busy and getting ready to move as well as dumping 68 yrs of accumulated crap. I'LL KEEP YOU ALL INFORMED AS I GET CLOSER TO THE DREAM.

    Good to see you back Walt. This last week, I achieved the feat of toasted a full bowl in my truck with onyl one relight while driving. I was pretty proud of myself, and given the wonderful scent it leaves behind, I am putting together a truck pack with a couple pipes and blends.

    Great. I made a canvass bag to hold lunch size baggies of tobacco and up to 6 pipes for when I travel. Treva loads them and I smoke them. She even has one once in awhile. LOL

    Yeah, I'm still working on it. I have found a couple of pipe/tobacco combinations that work really well and am starting to get a feel for the pipes themselves. there is a great deal of satisfaction when I get a bowl right, this happens maybe 75% of the time.

    It's an ongoing process, isn't it? I think I pack the pipes the same way every time, but I only get it right some of the time. Sure do enjoy it when I do, though.

    Bump. Everyone still enjoying their pipes? I got a corn cob last week and have had some difficulties keeping it lit. I think its just gonna come with experience. Only have had one tobacco so far, but there are so many that I want to try.

    To be honest, yes , Iv only had one blend of tobacco, but I enjoy it better than cigars. Please dont stone me. Lol.

    It is a different and challenging experience. I still prefer a stogie in the morning and afternoons, in the evenings it is a matter of how much time I have to relax. I can smoke a cigar in the truck but not a pipe.
