Pipe Smoker


Lake Nipissing, Ontario, Canada, July 1964. Dad has stepped off the dinghy.

My Dad smoked a pipe some times.

A very different atmosphere.

Dad thought pipe smoking was healthier than cigarettes (even though he smoked those, too). He used to buy his pipe tobacco at a shop, "The Pipe Fitter," in Oakbrook Center. He didn't use a scented tobacco because he believed the fragrance of those triggered his allergies. So the brand he used was "natural." I hated the smell.
