You're in the Mid-Atlantic region? If you're close to D.C., we're planning to start having either weekly or bi-weekly herfs here in the D.C. area pretty soon and you are more than welcome to attend them if you are in the area. We are trying to invite as many local SCers to hang out and enjoy cigars with each other!
If you need help figuring out how to get the pipe packed and lit feel free to ask. There are some decent sites on the net explaining it but a little help never hurts.
Welcome to SC, Empress! We are indeed a fun-loving bunch, as my compadres have so eloquently indicated, and we love our cigars (and pipes too) and our people! Join the fun!
Greetings and welcome to SC!! This is a very friendly site with a wealth of knowledge and a plethora of comeraderie so sit back, light up, post up and ENJOY!!!
