[Choatecav]

To close the day, I had some Wessex Golden VA plug in cube cut form in a Comoy's Sunrise #284 Rhodesian. I had forgotten how nicely this pipe smokes. A real pleasure.... Life is good!

I've passed the first third of this bowl of first release Watch City Rhythm & Blues in a black sandblasted straight 1998 XXX Ashton Pebble Grain lovat with a black acrylic saddle stem. This will get me to dinner time.

Relaxing after a wonderful salad, barramundi and green beans dinner with strawberries for dessert. I'm smoking year 2014 Strang in a 2003 smooth light brown medium bend straight grain Ardor Venere Extra signed by Dorelio Rovera Dublin with a black acrylic saddle stem. Community Coffee, neat, is my drink.

It's all new players in an all new ball game

Nice Donald Fagen reference! Nice Rush reference, too.

Wow.

I feel like I smoked this tobacco in a past lifetime.

This is so interesting and... familiar.

I dig this.

Is that a new pipe?? It is gorgeous.

Thank you! I think I've had it about a month now. So pretty new!

 

[JimInks]

A quarter of a bowl left of year 2014 Edgeworth Ready Rubbed Match In a black sandblasted full bend 2025 Rinaldo YY Lithos dublin with a tapered amber tortoise shell acrylic stem. Daisy the Feral Princess has been in and out three times in the last twenty minutes. Like Dobie Gillis' father would have said, "I gotta kill that girl! I just gotta!" Just watched a couple of episode of that show. Batman is next.

4/19 Classic Flake in an Altinay.

 

[MontyTX]

Oliva 2nd series V. Same great taste IMO, just doesn’t burn perfectly evenly… but it’s great at 1/4 the cost if you get 20 cigar bundles from cigar page.

I haven’t smoked a cigar in over a month since I dove back into pipes. Sad to say it, but I now might prefer Maltese Falcon in my Neerup volcano to any cigar. Taste buds are funny things.

Nice long walk with my sweetheart.

Lowcountry Pee Dee in my Christmas meer. Yum.
