I made my second ever trip to the famous Boswell Pipes this weekend, and walked away with two simply gorgeous pipes. The second I picked up the rusticated black freehand I knew it was mine, but then it took me a good long while to decide between the white stemmed freehand and another pipe which is still at Boswell waiting for another lucky customer. As always, everyone at Boswell was simply as nice as can be, and it was just a great experience. I can’t wait to go back again.
Yes, you read that right. Move fast and order your tins today before they sell out. Limit of 3 tins per customer. Get them here. I just ordered 3 tins for myself!
Update: It’s sold out already!
I decided to get out the camera today for a photo shoot with my Le Nuvole. Click here to view the high resolution version of the photo below to use as a desktop background on your computer.
I’m happy to say I’ll finally be attending my first pipe show this weekend in Columbus, OH. I’ll be driving out bright n early tomorrow and meeting up with a big group of club members. I’ve been instructed of the following game plan:
I have some ideas on what I’ll be looking for, but am not completely set on any particular goals. I’d like to finally get a castello, preferably sea rock and smaller in size. Another possibility is a patent era shell dunhill, and yet another thought is grabbing several old “high grade” Eldorado or Viscount Dr. Grabow’s. Yeah, I said Dr. Grabow :) I have an old one and it’s seriously one of my favorite pipes.
Just gotta make it through Friday first…
Wow has this weather been awesome!! I have been outside smoking my pipes on a daily basis. On Friday the 2nd I smoked 4 different pipes out on my back patio. After a long and stressful winter (family health issues), I am just so enjoying this Spring!
Our monthly gathering at Allegheny Smokeworks in Blawnox, PA will be on Saturday, April 10th from 10AM until noonish. Come on out and sample some tobacco, drink some coffee, and enjoy the fellowship of other pipe smokers. Hope to see you there!
Yep, today’s the day. Be sure to to enjoy at least one bowl, if not more, of your favorite tobacco(s) today. I personally may be stopping by Leaf & Bean to celebrate this momentous occasion.
