Smoking Monday
Another glorious day in the rainless paradise. Pretty much have the day to myself today, which is rather pleasing. Right now I have a large bowlful of 965 wisping out of a Pete Sherlock Holmes, which is, in itself, pleasing. Enjoy your day folks.

Think I broke my DGT record, found a pipe that just seemed to have been lit and not much more, being a bit dusty, it must have been lying around for weeks. It tasted damn good, no idea what the tobacco was though.
I am quite sure someone will take this as a challenge, and in a year from now, someone will post: "I broke Henriks DGT record with 11 months". Have fun with that one :)
Right now I am smoking some OCB, listening to a band called "Impiety", I don't know where they're from or anything like that. They all do play their instruments as fast as possible without any coordination whatsoever. Quite nice actually.
Have a great day folks
If I have not seen as far as others, it's because giants have been standing on my shoulders.
Locked and loaded my KW Mandarin with some OJK for the ride into work am also packing a four digit KW apple and some private stock for later. Have a great day all.

A beautiful day in Mid Michigan!!
This morning it was C&D Red Carpet in a bent basket rusticated billiard.
A fine smoke for a fine day.
Full pipes and fair winds folks!

with C&D Crooner. It's a great tobacco if you have a torch and 5 gallons of gasoline to light it. I tried cutting the blend (almost 50/50) with some ribbon cut burley.
The result is easier ignition with a consistent burn. Since the burley is slightly flavored with vanilla, it works well.
I've been enjoying this in a Butz-Choquin Daccord. Am going to mix up a load of this stuff tonight.

and they have today down as "Discovers Day". I wonder what the sanitizers have against Columbus Day. Italian?
Anyway, loaded in the pickaxe is a bit of cob plug as I continue it's break in. Loaded up for the next round is a slightly bent pot, briar fox for my daily dosage of her VA'ness.
Oh yea, looks to be one fine day on my island. Enjoy your day.

Have today off so I am going into the shop to work on some of these rough cut shapes. Gonna load up some Walnut and bring along some PA for the trip.

I'm spending my day off cleaning windows. I really know how to have fun. But, i've got a pipe going the whole time and it helps, can't do that at the office!. Back to work now...

Smoking in the office? Wait, He's in VA and I'm in MA working out of my house. So, as the saying goes, "In my face" Thats's right, the smoke is in MY face. Gotta love it. Decided to light up an old Mastersen Freehand with Rattray's Terry Red. Another beautiful day in New England as the leaves turn shades of red, yellow and purple with a splash of green from the conifers.

Got five pipes with me today and smoking CBB unflavored this morning. Will smoke it after lunch with a kiss of the concord grape flavor. Love it both ways.

Mac Baren mixture and assegai blend for the first time. I'm really glad I didn't dump the Mac Baren. It turned out tasting warm and fruity with a kick.
Enjoy !
If it can't cut, it's a pipe!
actually merely an aberrant moment. I chose ERRd and then H&H, now Safe Harbor...all in an Ehrlich pot billiard ("polliard"). Anyway smokes very well but it has more scratches than a man wearing catnip cologne. Sort of.

it is time to head to the dungeon below. A favored son, quarter bent basket brandy, and half life partner shall accompany me. The evenings offering to the briar gods will be some *FREE* Fribourg & Treyer Cut Virginia Plug, splendidly aged for almost two years by my good puff bud, rp.
I am so sorry it nipped him. *giggle*
