There's something great about smoking a pipe under the stars on a clear winter's night. Especially when the temperature is 70 degrees Farenheit at sunset....of course winter doesn't arrive until Dec. 21st, but it already feels like it elsewhere. |

Fortunately I'm lucky enough to be able to smoke inside. Some of us are not and to that I say BUMMER! now Home Depot sells the big tall standing propane heaters and Chimenias which should do the trick for you and I think I saw the big heaters on sale for $139.00

I sit in a pole building with it pointed at me and turned to low. Takes 30 seconds to get running and plenty of heat. |

Last night the temps were 30's outside, 70's inside. I had the blinds open on the windows so that as I sat in the mancave I could see the stars. ;-) Put me in the "Smoke Inside if Ya Can" club. |

We smoke is our uninsulated pole barn and garage. The garage is too short but the barn is not. |

Smoking in the cold has helped me learn how to smoke better actually. Because I refuse to wear gloves, my hands get very cold. I've started clenching the pipe and sticking my hands in my pockets for most the time. I started using the breathe method to compliment this clenching style. I've been having really good smokes the last few weeks.

It's called a Tank Top Heater and many companies make them in single or double burner models. Mine is made by Dyna-Glo. Its been a nice companion on some of my freezing cold pipe sessions. |

I'm going to see if they're available over here. Edit: a wee bit expensive for the amount I'd use them. |

I just smoked my Kirsten while working in the garage yesterday and had no issues at all. I always use the closed mouth breath method though. Pipe stays lit forever that way.
