Secret Santa 2014

[the rev]

One year all I got was one tin of tobacco and a little hand made doodad from Tyler Lane pipes.

That was a good year

Mine is ready to deploy. Elves are taking it to the post tomorrow.

Well... Sparky the Red-Nosed Chinchilla has taken off!! I just hope my target likes what I threw in there!

If everything goes to plan the goods should be in the mail tomorrow!

One year I got a pipe that wasn't even finished, just a stem jammed into a block of wood.

It's a good thing I expressed an interest to try my hand at carving pipes. :lol:

I honestly wouldn't mind if my name was left in the hat and I got zilch. This forum, this hobby/lifestyle, the people in it, all have been incredibly generous in information, when life went to crap and I had to resort to begging, and the "just because" stuff... Output needed to exceed input by a long-shot this year. Life still ain't peachy, but I'm resourceful in forwarding the right stuff.

Plus, Secret Santa is the most fun I've ever had during the holidays. Nothing but smilin' brothers and sisters, pictures, sharing and...family--this is the real deal.

WOW...  :shock:

Pardon me, but I'm still recovering. I may be a little misty eyed while typing this. I got my package today... From Reno. I can guess who it is from, but it doesn't matter if I'm right. All that matters is that they know how humbled and thankful I am. I'm blown away by the generosity. I had to take 3 pictures just so you could see everything. And I apologize, I'm a pretty terrible photographer.

There is too much to list, but its a crap ton of tobacco, 2 briar pipes ( A Krona Freehand, and a Tinderbox Verona Naturale 704 ) and a lighter and matchbook from a "cat house" :lol!:  Seriously , this new guy is blessed and overwhelmed.

Thank you Santa, from the bottom of my heart. I hope you receive everything you every dreamed of this year.

Those Nevada Elves are out of this world.

Awesome work all around, everyone! I bagged myself a record-sized Father Christmas this year, and now that he's completed the Rare Exports-certified training program he's en route to the lucky lad on my list!

 

[swhipple]

Outstanding gifts so far. Excellent work all secret Santa's. The evil elves (otherwise known as the USPS) took my package today and they say that it's on the way.
