Welcome to the forum Perry, I am familiar with your neck of the woods, my brother lived in Yuba City, Uncle in Penn Valley, and I trucked resources to support CDF and USDF during fire season. I lived in the Bay Area and later down towards Monterey... I finally had my fill with California governance, and got out in 2005.... Penn Valley is pretty nice... someone here mentioned they live in Sackatomatoes... Dr Don reference...  Maybe you can meet up at the Briar patch tobacco shop someday. California does have its excess of law. And tobacco law. Glad to be on board. |

Never had the urge! And the "little" steakhouse is near "his" office, and is called The Buckhorn. There's also "Preserve" and "Ficelle", places we liked to haunt. |

For jack diamond who requested to see some of my meerschaums. Here's most of them. I think there might be three or four not shown. All picked up over the last 10 years or so.  |

The two plain ones on the right are made to order by Mehmet ali Barinci in Turkey. They are pretty large, compared to the others. He has a website on German eBay. I have one more from him not shown here. A Calabash style. The one at second from right has a slight rustication, the last one is smooth. Let me know if you want his email. |
