Greetings from Tuscaloosa Alabama

[perjst1]

Good morning everyone. Just joined the forum and wanted to introduce myself. 33 from Alabama. Graduated in 2000 and then joined the Navy. Spent 4 years aboard the USS Theodore Roosevelt CVN 71 (OEF/OIF). Completed my tour and came out as EN3 (SW). Worked for Caterpillar on heavy equipment for 5 years. Currently work as a methane gas compressor operator in a gas field in West Alabama. Have been interested in cigars and pipes for years. Have been active in the hobby for only about 3 years now and have gotten my wife interested also. We enjoy the relationship between the relaxation and a great stick paired with a local estate wine from Georgia on a nice night or a craft beer. Enjoy picking up samplers and getting out of the comfort zone of my everyday smokes. We currently have one 100 stick humidor for aging, two 50 counts for the eveydays, and one 25 count for flavor infused sticks. Look forward to seeing what the forum will provide and what i may have to give. Cheers yall!

Hey great to hear from you and thank you. I get up your way just about every year for a big Ham Radio swap meet held at the Von Braun Center.
