Yo, Gone Fishing... Good job on just up and placing an order. One could go back and forth all day trying to decide between two pipes, especially when you can't see or hold them. Same with tobacco; it will take you some time to figure out what you like (which by the way, will probably change several times, if not more). You have to start SOMEWHERE, so, at some point, it almost doesn't matter where, just start. Which is what you have done! Best of luck on your journey -- may you enjoy the ride. Let us know your thoughts on your new Pete (most pipers agree -- you really can't go wrong with a Peterson) as well as your thoughts on the baccies you ordered. There is a HUGE difference between Golden Sliced and Westminster, as you are about to find out. Have fun and report back, mister!!

Of course, you now need to buy another pipe, right? First, one is never enough, and second, with pipes, they need time to rest in between smokes. Some of us on this forum own 20 or 30 pipes, some 60 or 70, and some, 100-200 or 300... right? In my pipe club, there is one guy that has his own pipe museum! But having several pipes is necessary, so they can properly "rest". Now begins a beautiful obsession. I have three Peterson's btw, and love them all, and am about to get my third Stanwell, and love the two I have. So much to learn! have fun...
