Picture of a pleasant evening.

After a very busy Saturday -- IDPA match, barbecue -- the family is all tucked safely into bed.
The heat of the day has lifted, leaving only a soft Miami summer night.
Dad's time for a good book and smoke.
The pipe is a basket pipe I've had 15 years or more. It remains one of my favorites, despite the fact it cost about a tenth of what some of the others cost. I love the shape and the wide bit. Smoked judiciously it's good for an hour.
The tobacco is some nameless Virginia and cavendish tobacco store blend that is easy to smoke for an hour.
The book is Morris' "Theodore Roosevelt Rising." Alice Lee has just died in childbirth and TR has thrown himself into his work.
I am much blessed.

Wallbright, if you are a READER get a Kindle or similar device.
I always have a couple or three books going, and get through certainly a book a week. Just from the standpoint of lugging around all those books (the TR biography is 950+ pages) it's great.
Also, new books are at most about $10 -- many classic are free. I had paid for my Kindle (which was $240 at that time) in the first three months.
Plus the ability to preview a book in depth before buying.
Two-week battery life is amazing.

@Jankomatic: be sure your wireless is off except when you actually need it on. With wireless off, the device only uses power when it re-writes a page. 10-14 days of battery life is usual for me, but of course YMMV depending on font size, which affects how many re-pages it has to do.
@Fredvegas: I HAVE shelves and shelves of books -- at last count the total was about 6,000 (mixed hard/paper, purchased/inherited) and both the living room and the library/den are covered wall to wall. That's part of the reason for the Kindle -- I'm tired of building shelves. Believe me, nobody is more old-fashioned or gets the "smell/feel of a real book" thing better than I do. But if what you love is to READ -- as opposed to collecting books -- e-readers are a great tool. I've started culling the shelves to recover some space, keeping the volumes that are special to me or valuable, selling or giving away LOTS of paperbacks and less distinguished hardcovers.
@portascat: Good day at the range. It was hot (pushing 100) and humid as heck, but you do get used to it -- hydrate like mad and find some shade when you need it. We had a lot of new shooters, which is a mixed blessing. But we screen and train them pretty carefully, and have a system for integrating them into the flow. We shot 4 stages with 75 (!) shooters (a dozen new shooters) so it was a lot of work. But good to see the gang and send some rounds downrange. I shot fairly well. Not too many points down, for NTs or FTNs -- but I'm never terribly quick about it.
We have a great subsidiary club for carbine matches/drills (see my avatar). Requires a an O&Q to join and we do some fairly advanced stuff. Three gun we have had more trouble getting working. IDPA World Match (first ever) is coming in Sept. and I'll be SOing for that.
