Hello from Eastern North Carolina

[Misplacedhillbilly]

As the title says I'm in eastern North Carolina, however I'm originally from Southwest Virginia. Thus why I'm a misplaced hillbilly lol. I'm new to pipe smoking having started in October. Bought an basket pipe from a local cigar lounge, some aromatic tobacco, and proceeded to burn my tongue to death lol. Added a couple estate pipes from ebay,learned how to restore them watching southland piper on YouTube. Was gifted some more from my fiance's stepdad so now my modest collection is up to 7 briars. Once I learn the ropes here I'll post some pics. Thanks!

Welcome! Guess that's pretty flat where you are. Should still be some good brick and mortar stores near that part of NC.

Welcome! I'm from New Hampshire, not a hillbilly state but grow most of our food and ferment a portion of our alcoholic beverages. I'm also a corn cob enthusiast, you can add Missouri Meerschaum pipes to your collection, they are fairly inexpensive and easier to break in than a briar IMHO!

Welcome from Arizona high country. Glad to have you with us. Glad the first experience didn't turn you off, lol. Bali is right about cobs. Cheap and good smokers. Not a much better smoke than CH in a MM cob
