Had to take my kid up north to Tacoma for a medical appointment. The referral gave us the address to the wrong medical facility that was closed and no one was answering the phones. After having to take half a day off work, fight traffic and try to find some place they screwed up and it was looking it was all for nothing. Just as I was going to throw in the towel we received a call from the doctor and it was straightened out.
While I was waiting for her to get out of the office I remembered that there was a tobacco store that opened up not to far from where I was. They opened in response to our new stupid laws about not being able to ship or receive tobacco products unless you were a licensed store operator. We have maybe two or three stores in this entire state that carry anything but cheapo bulks.
Anyway, my daughter and I went in and had a nice visit with the lady who owns there shop. I don't think I got her name but she did say she used to be quite active on smokers forum. They have a great selection for such a little space. I picked up a tin of SG St. James Flake and a tin of Kingfisher being these two are both hard to get right now. The prices here are too high to warrant a large purchase. Think two to three times the price you pay online but I was glad to support them. I also picked up some extra long pipe cleaners being I didn't have any for my HCA Stanwell.
I did rejoin the Seattle Pipe Club again while I was there and got my card and club pin. All in all a nice little trip and my daughter cracked me up with how much she knows just from watching me.
After we left I took her to Hooters for dinner being she's always wanted to go and had never been. She loved the fried pickles. We had a really nice time together and now I'm going to load up my HCA with some Kingfisher. I'm much calmer than I was this afternoon. :lol:
