Grumpy - new member - also from Delaware

[Grumpy]

Hello from Lower/slower Delaware. Retired Air Traffic Controller. Growing blueberries and fishing now.
Smoking pipes off and on since the army handed them out for free in Viet Nam. Willards - I've heard, but don't know.
I have about 30 pipes - mostly medium priced stuff but I have one Dunhill and one Ashton.

Looking now on ebay for a couple Upshall's. I'll probably get one soon, maybe from Reborn Briars in England, don't know. Got beat out - time wise - not outbid - on a nice one last week. Might just resort to "buy it now".

Nahhh Ron's only grumpy when you hide his Escudo or force him to buy a pipe that doesn't pass the cleaner test.

 

[RDPipes]

Yeah, yeah, yeah...

Welcome Grumpy, and thank you for your service to our country. I'm a former sailor, my grandpa retired a sailor, and my uncle was in the army during Viet Nam. I'd like to see pics of that pipe you got while in the army if you've still got it. Again, welcome and glad to meet you.
