Welcome to the brotherhood.  You will find a lot of kindred folk here.
 
Welcome to BoB! There are many helpful, kind pipe smokers on this forum.
 
Welcome to the forums!!!  Glad to have you here.  Nice collection of watches and starter collection on pipes.  If you look around, we have quite a few pipe carvers on this board and they do amazing work.  Also, there are several estate pipe sellers here as well.  We will all be glad to help you spend your money on pipes and tobacco. :lol!:  :bounce:  :bounce:   Be careful as it quickly becomes a disorder to those who aren't wary of it.  I started smoking a pipe in January and I already have over 11 lbs of tobacco squirreled away and almost 20 pipes.   :lol!: 

Join in and have fun.

Welcome to BoB. Looks like you're off to a good start.

I'm an ex-pat cheesehead, and have spent a good deal of time "up north" drowning worms!

 :lol: 


Cheers,

Spent much time around Eagle River over the years, mostly on Kentuck Lake at a cabin my roommate's folks had. Went every year on the Memorial day, 4th of July, and Labor Day long weekends. Great fishing there. Also the Rice Lake area. Didn't catch any Muskies though!


Cheers,

RR
