    Squirrel Season

    I rarely squirrel hunt anymore but we did a lot of it when I was a kid. Growing up we ate a lot of deer, squirrels and rabbits. We still eat a ton of deer at my house. I honestly think squirrel hunting is about the most fun thing to do out in the woods. My daughter has been asking for a couple...

    Three Months with a Homemade Corn Cob Pipe

    Sounds (and looks) like you’ve got this figured out. Thanks for sharing with us. I saw that the round stem seems to work fine but I thought a person could probably sand the top and bottom of some of the stem to get a taper or even a bit of a saddle stem shape to clench on…or is the stem too thin...

    Which one of you worked on today's NYT "Connections"? (Spoiler, don't look if you play)

    I do several of the NYT puzzles every day. Connections is my favorite but i save it to do before bed with my wife. We forgot to do it yesterday (so our 30+ day streak is over!) but I did yesterday’s online this morning and was also pleasantly surprised. Of all the ones to have missed🤪.

    What's Your Favorite C&D Small Batch Release??

    I really loved the 2nd year of Sun Bear. I was afraid with deeming regs they might not get to keep doing the limited drops so I got about 40 cans of Black Locust😂. I still get a couple Sun Bears when they come out. I have a Ser Jacopo prince that is dedicated to it.

    So... What OTHER Hobbies Occupy Your Time?

    Where Is Your Favorite Place To Smoke A Pipe

    Some of my favorite places over the years... On the porch of a cabin in the smokies. In view of the marina in St Augustine. Camping beside the Buffalo National River. My regular favorite spot: My porch swing. This time of year I like to sit in a floaty chair in the pool and smoke a pipe 😎

    Rainy Weather Smokes?

    I mostly smoke on the front porch swing so i am still dry if it’ is raining. I love to smoke on a rainy day. Something about it is especially enjoyable. My favorite is smoking when it’s REALLY foggy. I don’t know exactly what it is about a thick fog that makes it “better” but I always enjoy that.
