Well , if that isnt the best Christmas story .... I dont know what isPoolShooter wrote: ↑Sat Dec 24, 2022 9:42 pm I kicked a nasty alcohol battle about 5 years ago and revamped my entire life. Stopped smoking pipes about 6 years ago. I won’t go into details, but it was excessive.
I went into a cigar shop the other day and saw some Petersons and Savinellis, and a bunch of basket pipes. Today I walked out with a Peterson. Pics coming soon. I was doing my own tobacco blends which I made from whole leaf, and perique and Latakia. Named my dog Burley. I remember 45% Latakia, 13% Perique, 20% Burley, and 22% Virginia(two different Virginias). I had a few dozen pipes and contemplated making my own cabinet but my woodworking skills are non existent. I never thought I’d be back, but we all know how that goes lol. Anyway, I’m glad to have overcome a difficult time.
God bless and welcome back . I got a Pete for Christmas too ... Enjoy !!
