The suffering....been there , done that, I swear I'll never do it again!;) Good choice on the electrician's knife when working around the house, I tend to carry one when doing handyman work.

An old big, tall and soft spoken farmer told me about it in a dream. He said it was somewhere down an old narrow winding, hilly dirt road, with gray weathered fence posts with rusty barbed wire, and an abundance of bluebirds singing. I would come upon an old guy that lived in a little weathered house at that sharp left hand turn, just as the woods began. He believed his name was Mounce and he wore those blue striped overalls and kept a tin of Prince Albert in the bib, occasionally rolling himself a cigarette and licking the paper. He was a nice old guy and talked to kids often, usually offering a bit of "wisdom". I should listen closely and remember his words.

I would come upon an abundance of " blue racer " snakes that would scurry out of the weeds and across the dirt road, but not to be afraid!

When I caught the smell of wood burning, coming from the chimney of the wood stove heated home on the hill, I would be nearing my destination. I might even, if my senses were keen, smell the faint scent of old country hams hanging in their smokehouse.

I would come to a really long steep hill, and I should hitch a ride with a man that had a familiar face, he would take me up the hill, fish-tailing in the mud, not to worry we would not get stuck, after our ascent the prize would be before me, all I had to do was enter the old country store:D;)

Hi Brisket,

well that´s nasal tobacco (Schnupftabak in german). This particular snuff has a quite unique taste - aromated with the taste of pine needles :D love it and a tin of this great stuff is always around where I am. I have tried almost others, but nothing tastes that unique. Pure tobacco snuffs w/o aroma are great as well :D

Oh - great looking Northfield you have there. Love the covers.
