***What Are You Smoking, August 2021?***

[jmsmitty6]

I decided the pot should be dedicated to Virginias, so I'm a quarter of the way through a newly opened tin of year 2014 HU Sunset in a straight 1924 Dunhill’s “Shell Briar” patent pot 7 with a tapered black vulcanite stem. First time smoking this pipe, of course.

This pot looks like it's just my speed in a group 2 or 3. Enjoy

Do you find mixing the cuts together is more than an sum of its parts? Or do you just used the RR as kindling?

Even though they're in the same jar I don't mix 'em in the pipe.

That bowl of Edward G really hit the spot, so going back for seconds with this Ryan Alden Devil Anse

This is a first: In a Charatans Make Freehand, I am smoking Alabama’s favorite son’s Home grown tobacco. To say that it is unique is not to say it isn’t a surprise. It’s like comparing a home made apple pie to something you get at a store. It’s a shame there isn’t a market for homegrown tobacco. It should be an option everyone can enjoy.

Something else, clearly tobacco, I it’s more homegrown spirit, holds its own joys. I definitely taste things I never tasted before.

Relaxing after a wonderful salad, chicken and green beans dinner with rocky road ice cream for dessert. I've about a quarter of a bowl left of year 2012 Rolando’s Own in a smooth straight early ‘60s Lane era “William Conrad” Charatan Executive Extra Large stretch apple with diagonal channel cuts on the lower right and left of the bowl along with a black vulcanite double comfort saddle stem. Community Coffee, neat, is my drink.

I hear ya bro. I’d post a relaxing pic of my hobbit feet too, but if I’m honest, it would look like a warning image that goes on the front of a pack of cigarettes

Druquer & Sons Levant Mixture in a Savinelli Miele 611 KS bent dublin. Bird report: California scrub-jay, Stellar's jay, House finch, Common raven, Northern flicker, Nuttall's woodpecker, White-breasted nuthatch, Anna's hummingbird, and the first Mountain chickadee in a long time...season is changing! Enjoying a Dos Equis Amber as the sun sets.

I really like the purple Devil Andrew!
What kind of lighter is that?
