Peterson Nightcap from July 2021 in the PCI Horn Meerschaum carved by Ahmet Govem

Great bloodlines that complement Gracie’s, and a good demeanor.
Uncle Bob will do awesome, he gets along with everybody he’s met, or he’ll go to the taco shop
I’m worn out so it’s big and burley while I lounge hahaha.
11 year old Briar Fox in a lattice globe meer.
Relaxing with some Mac Baren Virginia#1 in a Posella. It's a fine blend, although I taste the casing more than the tobacco even after drying a bit.
Now smoking year 2014 Esoterica Tilbury in a straight smooth Danish gold straight grain undated W.O. Larsen Hand Made in Denmark dublin with a tapered black vulcanite stem. This pipe is from the estate of David Cuneo.
Had a couple bowls of some decade old FVF in an Altinay Meer running errands. As well as a bowl of GH Whiskey Twist in an Eltang pencil shanked apple (no photo).
Dark Birdseye in a J11P, with a couple new toys I picked up from a buddy this week. Now I just need to clean my shop up and make some space (been a wreck of last guy’s junk since we moved in almost 2 yrs ago).
I see some briar blocks and ebonite rods in my future

Nah. Bob is safe, I have no doubt.
Wrapped up the workweek with some Drew Estate 7th Ave. Blond(e) in a Savinelli Mattone 614 faux-Hungarian. This blend reminds me how I should dry the contents of every jar I have so that any given one is ready to go at any time. The fact that I currently have 37 jars makes this a daunting prospect. 8/10
Bird report: California scrub-jay, Dark-eyed junco, White-crowned sparrow, Chipping sparrow, House finch, American crow, Steller's jay, Mountain chickadee, Hairy woodpecker, White-breasted nuthatch, Western bluebird, Blue-grey gnatcatcher, Anna's hummingbird, and Northern flicker.
My favorite meal, Eggplant parmesan, awaits. Going to sleep heavy this evening, I'm sure. Shabbat shalom!

Now smoking my unknown Old Sea Captain meer with some Trout Stream while watching March Madness.
DanishGold with 5 brothers in the pipe in the middle, a handmade Nording. Coffee
That pipe rules-and so does FVF. I have a block of Full Virginia Plug that’s been aging for about 3 years. Maybe it’s time!
Another bowl of Red Carpet in the Derry from earlier.
Enjoyed a tasty golden delicious apple, and have about a third of a bowl left of year 2018 Dunhill London Mixture in a brown medium bend 2002 Ser Jacopo Delecta Fatta A Mano R1 sandblast Rhodesian with a smooth extension at the shank with a military mount and a tapered black acrylic stem. Just fed Tomato the Brave and Harry the Hairy. We're watching Some Like It Hot.
Now smoking year 2014 Edgeworth Ready Rubbed Match in a very much appreciated 1979 brown, slight bend grain etched flat front Stanwell Rego 969-48 (09) with a black vulcanite saddle stem. Ice water and bergs is my drink.
