Good afternoon friends,
Last week my wonderful wife and I loaded up the car with camping gear, and our puppy, and hit the road. We drove North for about 3.5 hours before pitching our tent on the shores of Georgian Bay, which comprises about the north-eastern third of Lake Huron.
We had wonderful weather, and enjoyed swimming, hiking, cooking in camp, and waking up with the birds. We had deer in camp five nights in a row, but no bear, and went through about a bush cord of firewood in our campfires.
I had quite a few awesome smokes, but the most enjoyable was my sunset smoke on our last night in camp. I thought I'd share some photos of that smoke with you guys.
The pipe: Mario Grandi Freehand

The 'baccy: L.J. Peretti's Oriental #40

The drink: Lagavulin 16 (rocks... I know I know, it was hot)
Happy puffing,
-- Pat

Great pics Pat! Cheers!
We're so lucky to have these special places within easy driving range of our cities here in Ontari-ari-o...

Nice Pat! I'm just about to post on my vacation as well. Georgian Bay is one of the most beautiful places on the planet in my opinion.

Looks like a good time. My vacation starts next week, camping in sierra nevada. A pipe and a lake what could be better.

Thanks for the comments everyone. We did have a lovely time, and were truly fortunate with the weather. It's a pleasure to be able to share these with you all.
I like the car shifter ashtray!
It's a pipe rest! Didn't the wood grain give it away?

That's awesome Pat! A vacation with views like that is always nice. It's even better when you have a pipe to enjoy it with. Glad to see/hear you had a good time. I haven't been up on Georgian Bay or Huron in quite a long time and I think I'm due lol.
I won't get my vacation for another 4 months. I always keep a weeks worth of vacation for hunting season ;)
