    Found This Pipe Stand On The Beach

    It’s shell—I assume some critters did the “drill work” at some point.

    Found This Pipe Stand On The Beach

    I’m spending the week on Anastasia Island in St. Augustine, FL. Always picking up shells but this caught my eye this morning bc I thought it might fit a pipe pretty nicely. Looks ok to me😀

    Question about Peterson Nightcap

    I like nightcap very much. I remember being hesitant to try it bc it was supposed to be so strong. I personally never felt like it was a real heavy hitter but I do usually smoke it in a smaller Peterson 999.

    Gardening Talk

    No veggies planted this year but I bought a bunch of assorted flower seed packs at the $tree bc they were 4/$1. I’ve got about a dozen pots of flowers growing around the pool. I go out and see what’s starting to bloom everyday when I get home from work. It’s been pretty cheap entertainment 🙂

    What Kind of Pipes do you Like and Why?

    I like looking at all kinds of pipes. I browse the updates at SP twice per week bc I just love looking at pipes. I like classic English shapes but I also like (and prefer) Italian pipes. I figured out a long time ago that I find Ser Jacopo’s shaping and finished especially appealing. But I like...

    Ser Jacopo HAND MADE IN ITALY

    I took a look at my SJs. They do all say fatta a mano. I don’t think that has any relevance to the stamping on your pipe but I’m just reporting in.

    Ser Jacopo HAND MADE IN ITALY

    I love SJ pipes and look at a bunch of them. That is a very unique bowl! What a beautiful pipe. I don’t usually pay that close attention to the stamping. I believe most do say “fatta a Mano” as well as “Per Aspera Ad Astra” (to the stars thru work). I have a seven day SJ set..I’ll look at mine...

    My Visit To The Country Squire

    I turned 40 last month and to celebrate my family is driving down to have dinner with some very good friends at our favorite restaurant in St Augustine FL. Going thru Jackson MS was not the most direct way but this way I got to stop at the Squire. I was greeted with handshakes and introductions...

    What I Brought To Smoke On Vacation

    Oh man we missed it—some BAD winds tore thru here Friday and the park was actually closed yesterday and today. BUT the weather is perfect today and we rode horses up in the hills and did an escape room instead. Monitor and adjust🙂.

    What I Brought To Smoke On Vacation

I am gonna be spending some time sitting on that porch enjoying the view. Since the goal is to RELAX I wanted to be sure I...
