May PAD

I ended up with 5 new pipes in May, four that I bought myself and 1 that my three daughters bought me for my 50th birthday. I also bought a pipe for my wife as she has been sitting and smoking with me a bit more lately.

Bruyere St Claude Extra Acorn. Great little pipe. Has a tiny bowl that's good for quick smokes and sampling blends.

Bruyere St Claude Dux Depose Billiard. Another nice little pipe that is yet unsmoked.

Brother and sister?

Peterson Aran Bulldog with P-lip. Bought this at E.A. Carey in Ohio when wifey and I went camping at Findley State Park. First bulldog and I really like this pipe, it smokes like a champ!

Peterson Aran Canadian (Fishtail) The Canadian is my favourite shape and I didn't have a Peterson Canadian yet. Saw this one on Smokingpipes and picked it up. It's a pretty pipe and also a great smoker.

Rattray Kelpy 59. This is a special pipe to me. It is a pipe that my 3 daughters pooled their limited resources for to buy me for my 50th birthday, I suspect Mom may have chipped in too. I haven't smoked it yet but will probably try it this afternoon with some Penzance. My first and only Rattray so far.

Wifey's Pipe: Savinelli Clark's Favorite. This is a pipe that I bought for her at E.A. Carey in Ohio when I got my Bulldog. I, and she, wanted something lady-like and this fit the bill. She loves the swirling colours on the stem so I bought her a tamper to match from Smokingpipes.

Thanks guys. No more pipes for awhile now...honest! Going to focus on TAD for the next couple months. Not going to buy another pipe until our trip to Tennessee in August.....unless a Bruyere St Claude Lovat becomes available and falls into my Smokingpipes cart...but that's it. :D

One for each decade....great way to look at it booker. Thanks

Glad I could take one for the team gman. :D

Thanks guys, I really like the Canadian to. That one brings me to 8 Canadians. :D
