I do a bit of consulting work down in Minnetonka , and often go shooting at Horse and Hunt. Jets-Wild games at Excell are fun too.
Stogies in Grand and Tobacco Grove are so me of my favourite hangouts. Feel like Mn is our second be home!

Very nice. I have the same Savinelli Christmas Pipe as my first Christmas pipe too. I love it. I'd like to get some of the other years out there still. Enjoy!

I am kind of hoping to get a deal on one of the Peterson's St. Patricks Day pipes after St. Pats Day. They have kind of grown on me.

^^^ Nice score Jake! There are three black cases below the pipe rack. Anything in the pipe cases or are they empty?

I found someone selling this exact pipe with a stem for $600. I can get a replacement stem but I need to research more to see if that is for real or just someone over zealous and proud of their stuff.

So this is my second Castello. Broke it in today with some aged Escudo- fantastic pipe, with the easiest draw ever.
Image
Chased it with some fine Riesling. Not sure if it pairs well, but after a week on call, I don't give a $h!te.

What's the story on the little duck head coming out of the stem? Looks cool

l'anatra means duck in french and it is their maker's mark. Not all of their pipes have the raised duck head. Some are stamped with it. I just like how different it is and had to have one. They aren't cheap either.
