    Who Picnics?

    We're gung ho picnickers. We started going on picnics when we were dating. Our picnic basket has accompanied us on many road trips and the inner lid is plastered with tourist decals of locations were we "spread the blanket." There are items in our basket that work so well for picnicking I could...

    The Summer Pipe

    Title Edited. See Rule 9, please. My piping tends to fall off in the summer as it gets very hot where I live (over 100 degrees is the norm) so after a usually brief spring my pipes won't see much use until autumn, however there are exceptions----camping trips at higher elevations and trips to...

    I'm Considering a Bloodhound and Might Need a Name....

    Our current dog, a terrierist, is in the advanced stages of Cushing's Disease and I was thinking of a Bloodhound replacement for after she sheds her mortal coil is the reason I ask. There's no rush as our mutt is still flying with her dirty side down.

    I've had Irish Setters, so I'm familiar with the modus operandi

    I'm Considering a Bloodhound and Might Need a Name....

    Title edited for caps. Bloodhounds are known as St Hubert's hounds, so if I get a bitch, the feminine version of Hubert would be a good fit, but, what is the feminine of Hubert? internet searches lead me nowhere. Any ideas? Hubertweena maybe?

    Difficulties choosing a pipe

    Unfortunately, you often can't return a pipe after you've smoked it. In a good B&M they can put a cover on the mouthpiece at let you look in a mirror.

    What Tobaccos can I Smoke in One Pipe?

    Some ghosts are friendly. Like Casper.

    Difficulties choosing a pipe

    There is a difference between liking how a pipe looks, and how a pipe looks in your chops. Until somebody comes up with a digital substitute for a mirror, that's going to be the curse of internet pipe shopping.

    Aren’t You Too Old For That?

    At age 69 after a triple by-pass and too many stents to count? I've cut back to alpine ski racing. Busting colts. Hiking in the Sierra. I'd still be flying if the FAA would renew my Medical

    Regular Rotation?

    FMOTT was one of "those" blends for me. It was marvelous stuff!

    Regular Rotation?

    I have a two pipe rotation. Peterson Standard System 303s, one smooth, the other rusticated so I can tell 'em apart. I have other pipes, but my brace of 303s seem the do most of the heavy lifting.

    The Patio Thread

    I find patios (or decks) absolutely enchanting, no matter how modest. A patio is like another room under the sky.. For many of us, our gateway experience with patios were simple barren small cement slabs fenced on three sides and connected to an apartment by a glass slider and partially shaded...

    Suggestions for English Blends

    For maybe a century, Dunhill 965 was the gateway drug for English blend aficionados. I don't know how the Peterson incarnation stands up to the original though.

    Question About Using Everclear

    B-but...Isopropyl is poison!

    Question About Using Everclear

    Everclear? Make Limoncello instead! IMHO. Brandy is better for swabbing your pipes.

    My Garden is Almost Planted

    After planting 80 onion sets, only 5 have sprouted. I'm afraid I was too late planting them. Oh well.

    Regular Rotation?

    I don't actively cellar any more. I have but one solitary jar of Mac Baren's Latakia roll cake left. After losing my McClelland's blends, I'm now in "discovery" mode, exploring GLP and C&D etc... to find new pipe partners.
