a BURNING question...

So I'm a new pipe-smoker and have a question. I've learned how to pack a pipe, light it, keep it lit, all that important stuff. My problem is that my mouth is getting burned! Would this be the result of a poor pipe, the tobacco, user error, etc? It's put a bit of a damper on my first pipe smoking experience and I know that there wouldn't be so many pipe-enthusiasts out there if it meant cooking your taste buds off. Some help would be incredibly appreciated!

For a' that, an' a' that

I'm a canny lad for a' that, I smoke Civil War Style Clay Bowl pipes. I have a few kinda spendy Savinelli "Duca Carlo" briars, which are excellent smokes, but still I most generally reach for my clay pipe bowls when I go out for a smoke.

Memories

Growing up in Mississippi in the nineties we enjoyed what little snow we got. Barely a foot doesn't sound like much but we were overwhelmed with ideas of snowmen and snowball fights.
