Who lives closest to the Chicago Pipe show?

Post by caskwith »

Depending on circumstances next year I may have a few days spare after the Chicago pipe show. If my partner is with me then we will probably head into downtown Chicago for a few days and sightsee but if I am on my own then I thought it would be cool to hang out with a local pipe maker. Needs to be someone local however as I will be flying back out of O'Hare so I don't want to be too far away.

Any potential takers for a poor lonely pipemaker? lol

I'll hang out with you in Chicago, Chris, but only if you promise to drink nothing but Boddingtons and Strongbow with me!

While you know I would love nothing more than to hang out with you (yeah right! :P) I would rather avoid more flights, 16hours flying and 10hours on train travelling to and from Chicago is enough for me lol.

i'm not much of a pipe maker... but i am in the area. perhaps we can figure something out as the date gets closer. i'm always up for at least some poker, conversation, and smoking. maybe by then i'll actually have a proper shop... in which case you would be more than welcome to drop by.
