Greetings fellow pipe smokers! We hope you are all doing well as we forge ahead into the new year, may the future be brighter than the past, even when viewed through the clouds of a smoky blend. As I mentioned earlier, we are going to depart from our pipe club meeting being the 2nd Saturday of the month. Rick at AJ's would like to have the floor cleared for the Super Bowl that takes place on the 2nd Saturday of February. Tough times for any retailer, and whatever we can do to accommodate our gracious host, we are all in! In addition, February 20th is International Pipe Smoking Day, so we are moving from a Wednesday meeting to a Monday meeting. Pipe Club Meeting Dates:
Pipe Club Meeting: Saturday, February 4th at RJ's Fine Cigars in Mesa, 1 PM
Pipe night/ International Pipe Smoking Day: Monday, February 20th, 5 PM at Madurostix in Mesa.
As should always be the case, be sure to peruse the offerings of our host tobacconists, and stock up on pipes, tobacco, and accessories...if they did not accommodate us, we would be in dire straits as a pipe club. Just to add...after the generous donation to the pipe club by Rande Reed, several blends that are very hard to come by, and with significant age has been culled from the herd when the tobacco was distributed. This will offer a great opportunity to smoke some well aged blends for the seasoned smoker, and a great experience for the relative newcomer to inform them on blends, and genre's of tobacco's that benefit from cellaring away. You are encouraged to partake in what is available, and the club really exists to help in that regard. Warmest regards, and Happy Smokes! The Arizona Pipe Club Also... Save the date.  Room Reservations will be Coming in February with Table, Admission and Dinner Reservations to Follow. Please note that the show is a week earlier than last year. www.vegaspipeshow.com

Since I’ve been battling a head cold the last couple of days I find it prudent to not attend this months meeting. Oh well see everyone when I can. I’m just glad it’s not covid.

Equally glad it isn't covid, my friend! I had that crap and I'm still having breathing issues months later. Always coughing up phlegm!!!

I hope that you get feeling better Mike.
I didn't really feel bad, but I had "the crud" for a good six weeks...In my entire lifetrime I have never had anything last anywhere near that long. I suspect that although we might not have had covid during a crud fest, I wonder if it affected everyone's immune system to a certain degree.
Every time we buy a Chinese product, we can thank President XI for this most recent blessing.
