A Pipe

February 24, 2021/ Museum Park

Today we are sharing this pipe, owned by Nathan Large.

Nathan says this pipe belonged to my grandfather (Grandpa Myron). I only know him from photographs and family anecdotes. All the same, the pipe holds a strong sense of his presence - the smell, the marks left on the pipe - which I find reassuring somehow.
