Getting ready for UFC tonight. An unbranded 1920s meer swan neck, a 1920s French swan neck (beautiful new stem made by Fletch), and a Reuben era Charatan (my wife's pipe tonight). These are all filled with my own blends... "Neo", "Clive Staples", and "3 Kings" respectively.

Can your wife teach my wife to be cool like her?

We had some work done on the house- a couple of new bathrooms, arched some entryways, and every inch of the interior painted. We had to pack up everything, including my pipes. We just moved back in yesterday, most of my pipes are still boxed up. In addition to the paint my den got an overhead exhaust fan right above my chair. Last night was the test run and it worked fantastically well. I left the door open and my wife reported zero odor sitting around the corner. No more window fan for me!

Nice choice on the color! It provides a nice contrast the the various woods in the room and of course the pipes. Also, love getting a shot of the whole room. I've seen the "pipe on desk" shot many a time and have wondered what the rest of room looks like: simple and cozy which is just my speed.

I’m back Boys & Girls!

I’m sure none of you bastards even knew I was gone, or missed me. LOL

Haven’t smoked since January, I pushed it to much with some smoking and VAs, and the roof of my mouth was getting irritated, so needed a rest.

So now, no more rushing the puffing, and seriously going even slower with it. Hey, after all, aren’t we suppose to be chilling when smoking.

I hope everyone has been doing ok since I’ve been gone.

Starting back, 2021 Esoterica Tilbury, with a Radice Clear Bent Dublin, with Baldo Baldi briar aged over 20 years.

Be well everyone!

Building raised beds for the wife’s garden…..plus 28 wheel barrels full of dirt and 10 buckets of aged manure…coffee and Ulhe’s in my cobs and workhorse pipes. Codger burley’s works best for me for outside labor and Uhle’s perfection plug is one of the best

GH&Co Brown Flake Aromatic in my MM Morgan, after filling it the night before.



Great smoke in this li’l guy. Can’t wait for SP to get more of these pipes in stock — I’ll definitely add more to my rotation.

Went ahead and cut some grass before the Eclipse renders internal combustion engines inoperable this afternoon. Throwing darts for the rest of the day in the garage with some music and baccy.

That sounds like fun!

Ready for the eclipse. 4 minutes, 17 seconds of totality. Unfortunately, I will be sans pipe during this astronomical event.
