Plan on going to local tobacconist and starting a new hobby. I love to shave, write with fountain pens, sip good booze, listen to vinyl and read 20 minutes once or twice a day from an actual book I feel I am a keeper of traditions. I like to relax and keep my pace slow and steady. I purchased my brown leaf badge this morning. Back to the first sentence, nearby we have a fine shop called Riegels, been around for a long time. Riegels in Fort Wayne, Indiana, it’s worth a google. I plan on going there and getting a set up, they have a bunch of guys sitting around smoking and I hope to join them for my first pipe and some tips. Also looking for the same from my friends here at B&B. So without further ado, please share any tips tricks, or lessons you may have! All input is always appreciated!!!
