Short Army 102 back at work, first up is a smoke from the Odds and Ends jar-always interesting.

@Tom Sawtooth It sounds like a good baccy for the King's Clay!

I have been bashing away at work 'sh*t' since 4.30 this morning. I realized that every day I smoke the same types of tobacco without ever varying what I do so this morning I thought I would try something different. I have mixed equal parts Black X twist with Brown twist to make what I would call a 'Black and Tan' blend. YMMV but in a short meerschaum 'cutty' it burns quite slowly and isn't the worst thing I have ever tried unless you count the time I went on a Condor RR and Tambolaka binge!

@condorlover1 Sounds like it would suit my clays!

@HalfDan: I think they make a special 'Sling Blade' version just for you!

No smoking rule at the living history festival so no clay pipe lit from the blacksmith's forge this time!

Started my week off with some Mapacho in an Old Dominion Cob. Special thanks to @TheIronMonkey for sharing the Mapacho with me.

The feeling I get when I partake of the Mapacho.
You’re a brave man driving on it

Going to have to wait until July or August to have a clay pipe lit from Jason the blacksmith's forge...

That’ll give you plenty of time to gather up just the right tobacco for the occasion.

@Speak Easy Yes and I think the clay pipe should taste even better lit from the forge after waiting a few months
Got it lit by the blacksmith at 3 events last year; the Vikings / Redcoats at Cromford Mill & Derbyshire Woodland Festival.

Nording F Moss Freehand - purchased from Larry in the last few years that he owned John Dengler Tobacco. This pipe has been dropped from over 25 feet onto hard concrete and you can't find the nick. Always a reliable smoker. Today, WCC #558 Flake. What, you thought I would put some Buoy Gold in it?

Uhle’s perfection plug in a cob with coffee, such a great morning smoke

@Backwoods Briar where are you getting that plug from? You’ve talked me into it!

Yeah,
Inquiring minds want to know where to snag some Uhle’s.
Peets is always great as well
Hope the dirt spreading for the flower beds went well.

Good day all! Starting with a favorite mix of Wilke Peanut Butter and Bengal Slices in a Charatan bird's eye Poker with saddle stem (318).
