Enjoying some 1792 Flake in a Pre-Republic Pete that was Made in England for the Canadian Market, hence the 1 in front of 309, and eventually ending up in the hands of a knuckle-dragger here in Las Vegas. System 0 were the Supremes of the day. Great pipe with exceptional sandblasting.

 

[AppalachianPipe92]

Anthology in a Becker. Enjoying with some sheng puer as I listen to the birds and take in this spring weather here in the mountains.

Three Sails in an Altinay Poker

Well, the two I own do not have a shape number. I also have the commemorative issued by Peterson in 1989 (pictured here). It is a common style in the early 1900’s as seen in this Barling from 1903

Will have an earlier than usual lunch since the Braves-Rays game starts soon.

Friday after work I went to get my second dose of shingles vaccine. All day yesterday I felt like I'd been hit by a truck. Thankfully, today it feels like it was only a compact car!

Just finished a delightful bowl of Mac Baren Dark Twist Roll Cake in my Peterson PotY '24 rusticated bent Rhodesian. This was a special smoke for me because today is the one-year anniversary of taking up the pipe.

It also marked the 455th bowl of pipe tobacco I've enjoyed in a year full of experimentation, learning, and camaraderie. The highlight for me has been sharing my journey with this community. I've made a couple friends, swapped tobacco and tales, and even participated in my first (of hopefully many) Som Besths.

Here's to another year of great smokes!

It's most excellent to see somebody else besides yourself that's totally anal in keeping records and publicly admits it! Bravo!
