PostSubject: Island Rick checkin in from KC   Fri Jun 27, 2008 9:00 am

Hello!

Been lurking for a short time, thought I should introduce myself. My name is Rick, I live in Kansas City, Missouri with my lovely wife Rebecca, and my smoking companion and lovable mutt, Holly (a mixed Terrier). Having smoked cigars for a number of years, I picked up the pipe about 6 months ago. I have learned a lot already, with a lot more to learn. I figure I have the rest of my life to learn about this awesome hobby, so I'll just take it slow.

I've started with a handful of corncob pipes for my rotation, and have picked up a few briars along the way. One of which is a Savinelli that belong to my wife’s Grandfather, who passed away in 1982. It cleaned up nicely and is a good smoker. For the most part, I am usually smoking a cob with some burley in it. Carter Hall and Walnut being my main smokes. Looking forward to trying some more as time goes.

Thanks for a great forum and look forwarding to conversing with you all.
