Nice score, those traveldors are awesome. I got one from harbor freight when I downsized my cigar collection (needed more room for pipe stuffs), they work great.
 
Man, you would think I was out of the woods, but Santa found me yet!

Snuffs, tobaccos, fish clubs, and clothing. Once all is sorted I'll post pictures!

Merry Christmas! :santa: :rendeer: :cheers:
 
Santa came to town!

Santa really covered all the bases:  Flambeau fly box with assorted fishing flies, 1 lb smoked King Salmon, a tin of Tiramisu wafer rolls, a Guinness ball cap, pipe cleaners, two cobs, a pipe bag, and a personal note from Santa himself.

Thanks, Santa!!! :cheers:

 
Well, I guess I'm going to have to do a two part(er). The bulk of what I want to send is ready but I've been waiting on another item or two that hasn't arrived yet. SO, tomorrow I'm sending what I have followed by a small package sometime probably next week. Can't keep good folk waiting forever. Sorry for lagging and bringing up the rear. :oops:
 
Woohoo! Man that's some generous Santa. The elves really piled it on when the old guy wasn't looking.


Ho Ho Ho!

Santa has arrived!! I'll get an inventory and pic posted a bit later today.

Thanks Santa!!
 
I couldn't hold out any longer and had to break into my present from Santa. A couple of old favorites and some new ones for me to try out. Thanks Santa, very much looking forward to digging into them!

 
Oh the horror!

I just finished a nice walk in the park with my dog. To be honest, I had just finished making a very big life decision to retire from my part-time gig at the Sheriff's department.

we plan to move to Florida sometime in the new year and I have been putting off this retirement for a while

When we rounded the corner I saw a huge package that one of Santa's elves had left for me. I have taken a few pictures to show you the opening of the package and its contents.

Inside was a tin of delicious fudge and some tins with other contents that you may recognize. Specifically S.G. full Virginia flake, S.G. St. James Blake, Dunhill Dark Flake, S.G. English Summer Flake, The Original Scottish Flake and a tin of cut Virginia plug from F&T. Also 8 oz of PS Luxury Navy Flake, some handy pipe cleaners and a brand new corn cob pipe from Missouri Meerschaum company!

I have to be honest I deserve to be on the naughty list this year however it seems that Santa has taken mercy on this old man and shown him great kindness. A special thank you from the bottom of my heart to my secret Santa who lives in the same state that I will be headed to soon I really appreciate it you have overdone and outdone yourself sir!

Pictures coming later!
