It's a gloomy, cool, drippy afternoon--but the birds are out chirping and the robins are all over the lawn. Peretti 52 in a friend-made Lovat, with decaf au lait and juice.
G&H Ennerdale Flake in a Unfinished Savinelli 673
@pipeboy122 I enjoyed the Ennerdale Flake in my clay pipes; a local tobacconist in Chesterfield sells it loose (minimum sale 10g). I use my leather tobacco pouch for loose Gawith Hoggarth tobacco. Perfect for my living history events!
...unless you break a few more!
Close to finishing this bowl of year 2013 Stonehaven in a straight black sandblasted 1957 Barling Exel 249 Fossil T.V.F. black billiard with a silver banded military mount and a black ebonite tapered stem. Been reading some interesting things about food and dieting. Ice water and bergs is my drink.
Some F&T Cut Plug in a Charatan’s Make Extra Large.
C&D Rajah’s Court in a Briar Works C111.
Passing the quarter mark on this bowl of year 2020 Watch City Rouxgaroux in a smooth medium bend 2021 Peterson POTY Natural 4AB No. 6/500 military mount with a silver cap and a tapered black vulcanite AB stem.

Ran a bunch of errands this morning. Nice afternoon on the deck in the sun, a little breezy. Enjoying a home blend I made from whole leaf, 40% Virginia, 40% brown cavendish and 20% Latakia with about 5 years age on it in a meer. Coffee as a drink.
Lane’s LL-7 in a noname bent billiard.
Now i am smoking C&D Habana Daydream in Greek Alexander Dublin pipe. This pipe does not smoke well. I will smoke another 10-15 bowls in this one. If she doesn't get better, I'll throw her in the trash. Bad drilling. Draft hole lower than the bowl (about 2 mm). Gurgle like cat, tobacco block the hole. I'm tired.
Smoking some SG Navy Flake in a Yello-bole Bing Crosby pipe.
Had a nice afternoon lunting w/the wife and horse. Took along Ashton Winding Road in my MM Country Gentleman. Good grazing for the mustang--lots of green grass and a running creek nearby.
Bird report: California scrub-jay, Steller's jay, White-crowned sparrow, Dark-eyed junco, California towhee, House finch, Northern flicker, Common raven, California thrasher, and several Red-tailed hawks. Lots of precipitation = lots of plants = lots of rodents = lots of hawks. Wow, I almost sound like a professor. Good thing I smoke a pipe.
