Had a nap, and a bowl of Mac Baren Latakia Rolls (Limited Edition) in a full bend black pebble finish 2001 Rinaldo Lithos YY8 Titania Silver Line egg with a black acrylic tapered stem. Time for a Jazz apple.

War Horse Green in a Stanwell billiard.
Trying to come to terms with saying good bye to my best friend of 13 years tomorrow: Our Husky mix, Moonshine. It’s been a good run buddy boy. 15 years old is p good, I suppose.
smoking some 2006 McConnell Special London from a Chacom Havane with hand cut brindle stem I picked up at Jerri’s in Denver. It’s gone now, too.

Just passing the half way point on this bowl of D&R Penhooker in an undated smooth straight medium brown made in France Saillard Lord Clerit lumberman with a black vulcanite saddle stem. Getting a little work done.
Sorry to hear the sad news. I surely know how it feels. Best wishes, buddy.
The Amphora Burley was my morning smoke. Twice. This evening it's been Sutliff 507-C Slices.
April saw some mistakes made. I bought Captain Black thinking it was Sail, and I bought an Amphora Cavendish SR not knowing I had already bought a Cavendish. So it was a steamy start!
But I snagged a recovery!
Best Brown Flake, Pete's Signature Flake, and some ODF. Then I wet the bed again buying a Burley blend that I thought was ready rubbed but it turned out to be cross cut.
I might take the plunge and order a tiny tin of tobacco from smokingpipes to see if the Postal Gods hate me or not, but I'm not sure. My luck has been good lately and I don't want to push it.

A quarter of the way through this bowl of D&R VIP in a 2004 smooth long shank Trever Talbot Ligne Bretagne Faite en Bretagne 4/3 lumberman with a black vulcanite tapered stem.
Late bowl of 12 year old 1792 in a Rat.
Brobs, I know how hard saying good-bye to such a friend hurts, been there quite a few time over the years.
My thought and sympathies are with you.

Sorry to hear of your loss Brobs, our dogs are family members and it cuts deep when they have to leave. I’ll raise a bowl just now for Moonshine.
Take care mate

Just finished smoking Low Country Pipe & Cigar Natural Virginia & Burley in a 2020 straight black sandblasted Merchant Service “Bing” Standard with a nickel band and black vulcanite tapered stem.
Now smoking KBV Count Shagula in a 1991 Ashton Brindle X straight brown sandblast dublin with a square shank and tapered square acrylic cumberland stem. A cup of hot tea is my drink.
Stokebye #94 Turkish Export shag in a Peterson 9mm billiard. 
A quarter of the way through this bowl of Wilke Peanut Butter in a 1980s black sandblasted slight bend Savory’s Argyll 281 Cherrywood with a black vulcanite tapered stem. This will finish my smoking day.
OGS in a Comoy’s Grand Slam Shape 409 to start off the day.
For a little change of pace, Mac Baren Mixture (Scottish Blend) in an MM Diplomat. I don't smoke a lot of Mixture, but I always keep some in rotation - ideally, an aged batch. This jar of bulk had about two years on it when I cracked it - just enough to mellow it out a tad.
I am sorry for your loss, a few months ago I also lost my best friend, my dog Ros, they are never forgotten.
