I'm Richie Cunningham and this is my wife Oprah.....No, seriously though, I joined this forum in 2016 and then went to Instagram big time. I have since taken a big break from that an decided to return to this forum last year. I have since realized that I never did a formal introduction. So let's do that now. I'm 50 something and am located in southeast Texas(Beaumont to be exact). I started messing around with pipes in college back in the 1980's, laid off for a while and came back to them about 3 years ago. I currently have about 2 dozen pipes which I smoke quite infrequently. But I do enjoy them whenever I can.

This evening in honor of St Patrick's day I'm smoking my lone Peterson( an estate Shamrock shape #53) loaded with Peterson Balkan Delight(not one of my davorite blends but not a bad smoke). And with that I'm enjoying a bottle of Guinness Extra Stout. But now the pipe is finished, the bottle is empty and the mosquitoes are buzzing around me so it's time to call it a night. So, Happy St Patrick's Day to y'all and I look forward to many future posts and to reading yours as well.

Welcome aboard fetidbog. There was a man in my Navy boot company from Beaumont back during the Trojan War, 1968 to be exact. Big solid guy, a veteran of the Beaumont football team without a doubt, who said almost nothing. Can't remember his name; that was lifetimes ago.

Welcome back.
I am a 1971 graduate of South Park High School.

All my sisters and their families still live in the Beaumont area.

Thanks for the warm welcome guys! I tend to read/lurk more than I post so my apologies if I don't respond immediately.

And Jaytex969, yes the mosquitoes are always buzzing here but we usually don't worry about them until we have to use a baseball bat to swat them.

Pappymac, the old South Park I.S.D. My wife's grandmother was a math teacher there for decades. There is still a lot of South Park "Greenie Pride" here in Beaumont.
