GLP Windjammer in the Peterson 309, relaxing on this beautiful, low-key Sunday afternoon. As it should be. Enjoy the afternoon everyone!
Half way through 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.
A few years ago, when I first switched from cigarettes to a pipe, I didn’t know a burley from a Virginia, aromatic from a non-aromatic, or a virginia from a virginia perique. I did what many do in the beginning, and bought tobacco based solely off of which tin art appealed the most to me. This London Dock was one of those blends. After realizing I didn’t care for most aromatics, preferring the natural (cigarette if you will) tobacco flavor, I never got around to opening this tin. I’m now puffing on some Pegasus in one of my meerschaums contemplating opening this discontinued blend. It would be a shame to end up loving a blend that’s since been discontinued.
Some light reading while the kids run around outside. Yorktown from a Barker sandblast. 
Almost half way through this bowl of ear 2019 G&H Dark Flake Unscented in a small smooth straight dark brown circa-1950s Lane Commodore paneled pot with a black tapered vulcanite stem.
"4 Sails" vaper (1:1:1 D&R 3 Sails and Windsail, with Sutliff Perique) in a French made "Old Pal" dublin. Heineken in a can to drink.
Enjoying some 2018 Peterson Irish Whiskey in a Natural Nording Signature. My wife bought me the tobacco and pipe when she was on a business trip to the States. The pipe doesn’t have a distinguished pedigree but it is a favourite for sentimental and practical reasons. Anything I put in here smokes easy, clenches effortlessly and feels great in the hand.
First smoke of April and I think there wasn’t one in March. Crazy month of weather in LA and all of CA. Spent a good chunk of today prepping to have work done on the house resulting from the deluge. All things are relative but it was just pretty rough, especially Monterey area.
Father Dempsey in a Pete. After flirting with bigger pipes I seem to be grabbing smaller ones recently (in February). Doesn’t help the house pipe is a tough one to clean.

Folklore in a 4th gen. After giving up on a one weekend bench build that will have to move into it's third weekend.

Uhles Bishop's Move in a pre-republic Peterson bulldog.
Michigan had a monsoon season two years ago. Parts of Detroit were literally underwater.
Hopefully, you damage wasn't too bad.
Why is the House Pipe difficult to clean? I'm getting ready to christen the one I purchased in winter.
