Now smoking Wilke No. 515 in a smooth dark medium bend 2021 Peterson Heritage Brown POTY 4AB No. 45/500 military mount with a silver cap and a tapered black vulcanite AB stem. This was the blend Basil Rathbone smoked. Finished this Archie and gang at the beach story, fed two ferals, and am going to read baseball box scores as soon as I empty the dishwasher.

There's a building outside @dunnyboy 's window he posted sometime back that seems so familiar; I feel like I've walked past it in the city. It's been driving me nuts.
The building lit up in blue is the ConEd building on Irving Place and 14th St. The view looking south from the window of my apartment is of the lights commemorating the 20th anniversary of 9/11.

Just noticed he's from NYC. That would explain the fireplace. A lovely old brownstone, maybe?

We used to have a brownstone on the Upper Westside near the park but sold it to the private school next door when we downsized. The brownstone had one wood-burning fireplace. The apartment we live in now has two gas fireplaces. It was built in 1883 to simulate the feel of a brownstone in order to entice the gentry who were not yet used to living in multiple family dwellings. In the cooler weather the fireplaces do come in handy.
