| I think it was around this time last year that I started smoking the pipe. So to celebrate I decided to post a picture of my collection thus far. I haven't been much of a contributor on this forum, but I sure do love reading up on all the great advice given here by this fine circle of aficionados. In the spirit of celebration & contribution; behold my pipes!  Although it isn't much to look at, I am quite proud of my little collection; and they are all good smokers through and through. I thought I'd just throw in a picture of my recently acquired smoking chair. Just moved in with the gf this month, and I thought a new apartment called for a new smoking chair. The gf is about as happy with the chair as she is with me smoking in the house, but none the less, she loves me and indulges me having my little pleasures.  Hope you enjoy the pics, Toon |

| Very nice set, they look like they belong together! And the chair and the girlfriend will probably learn to get along. It looks like a great seat for smoking or reading.  |

| Nice, man! Itīs hard to have "meaningful furniture" here as the kids are still all over everything. Something like that chair would make a great addition to the studio here someday, however! |

Hehe, thanks man. If there was such a thing as a professional pipe-photographer, I'd become it without hesitation!
