Hi Warneout. I'm Tom from Minnesota. Welcome to the wonderful lifestyle of pipe smoking. It sounds likeyouve jumped into the deep end starting with 9 pipes and 40 tobaccos. I myself enjoy a wide variety of blends. Mostly English. And yes...pipe smoking and contemplation do seem to be kindred...

All this Tolkien talk and release of Myrckwood has inspired me to start listening to the audio Lord of the Rings. A lifetime Sherlockian...aah!

I live 3 hrs from Minneapolis. Apparantly, Rich Lewis workshop does repairs, with logos for Upshall, Saseini, Jacopo, among others. I'm going down in a couple weeks with a few. I don't think it's cheap, but what good is a beautifully crafted stummel with no stem to clench.

Just broke the stem off this Saseini. Man I HATE breaking pipes. But one thing I HATE more than breaking a pipe, is being afraid to take a pipe outside the house because I'm afraid of breaking it. Ugh!

Lol...I do a lot of bass fishing here in Minnesota. I light my pipe, and zip from spot to spot...and all is right in the world. I have learned to take my pipe out of my mouth on the big ones.

Now...Frostbite Falls does sound familiar. Lol. Hopefully, there are more pipe smokers there than in Fergus Falls. But who knows, maybe I'll track one down. Fellow fisherman would be an added bonus:)

Thank you for the welcome. I hope to meet more local enthusiasts through these rooms somehow. Share a smoke. Maybe go fishing. Buts wonderful reading and sharing about pipes and tobacco online, isn't it?

Thanks for the shout out. I'm sure there are a number of pipe enthusiasts in MSP. I live 3 hours north...closer to Fargo. Hopefully, I can track down a local pipe enthusiast. An avid fisherman would be doubly cool.

Thank you Dr. T. Hopefully, I can find some kindred spirits to share my passion for pipes with. Possibly even track down another kindred spirit in town.

Thanks for the tip Dave. I will check that out. Maybe there is even another pipe smoker hidden away in Fergus Falls somewhere. It would be nice to share a smoke with a chap one day. Or smoke our brains out going fishing.lol

Thanks to both if you. I look forward to participating in this group.

Hello, I'm Tom from Fergus Falls, MN. A smaller town of 15,000. After years of smoking quite pipe openly, still not a single fellow pipe enthusiast discovered. Joining here in a desperate attempt to connect with those passionate for this lifestyle of ours Peace, Smoking, Fishing, Painting:)
