Pappy Al and the Sasieni Ashford

[ssjones]

I thought this unsmoked Sasieni Ashford Natural (Four Dot) a few years ago and mulled over if I should smoke it. I decided it would be smoked on the birth of our first grandchild. Well, "Avery Eleanor" was born last night in Louisiana, so here she goes. My Mixture 965 of course! A Tito's & Tonic to help contemplate this miracle. I held her most of the afternoon while everyone else caught up on sleep, she's a sweetheart. Eventually the pipe will go to my son-in-law, hopefully well smoked and worn!
