Stonehenge Flake in a 1966 Dunhill Bruyere (3). 
Good night. After dinner. We started by smoking a bowl of Condor, in a MM Diplomat pipe.We accompany it with a glass of whiskey on the rocks. At ten o'clock at night, we are at 84.2 °F, with a humidity of 76%. Smoking becomes a bit annoying in these temperatures. Tomorrow we leave with 104 °F. I wish you a happy weekend.

Gawith Hoggarth & Co.: Brown Flake Aromatic in a Meer...
This is my last 2016 tin. They were replacements for the infamous moldy CRF tins. All the Bijou tins were dated May, 2016; IIRC the mold outbreak was concentrated in June production. In any event, all of the Bijou tins were thankfully just fine. This last tin was bulging, so I was a little concerned, but upon opening the tin note was akin to fermented fruit and not a bag of old potatoes accidentally left in a damp basement. Also, there was no “is that plume or mold?” decision to be made, just beautiful dark flakes.
My brutal work work has mercifully come to an end. It’s been too hot, and I’ve been too tired, to venture out for a smoke. It’s a pleasant 78 degrees now, and we’ll get a break from the heat and humidity this weekend, so I’m looking forward to getting back into my usual routine. I’m starting my evening off with Cabbie’s Mixture in a MM Emerald and a pour of Heaven Hill 7 yr.
Cheers!

About a third of a bowl left of KBV Acadian Flek beta test in a 1980,1983 hall marked medium bend black sandblasted silver band Peterson Donegal 80S Bulldog with a black vulcanite p-lip saddle stem. This is the second Peterson that I bought. Working on beta notes for this blend, review notes for the last blend I smoked, and doing some pipe cleaning.
2015 Sillem’s Commodore Flake in a 1950’s Brigham 3 Dot 303.
Taking a break from making my pipe stand (just waiting on a few things to come in the mail to finish it, currently making a mold to shape the leather) for some Crumble Kake English #1 in the Chacom 871 bent apple.
Kramer's Father Dempsey in a poker cob.
McConnell Ripe Honeydew in a 1968 Root Briar ODA 848.
Did a second set of walking reps, and smoked a bowl of Mac Baren Scottish Mixture in a straight, smooth brown 1960s Lane era Charatan Special 38 bulldog with a black vulcanite saddle stem. Ice water and bergs is my drink.
Haunted Bookshop in my small briar, first briar I ever bought. Good little smoker. A favorite tobacco in a favorite pipe. Works for me. Happy TGIF everyone.

Sutliff 707 Sweet Virginia in a Savinelli Tre Smooth #701 Lovat. Both the temperature and humidity dropped today on Long Island. I know it's a false start leading into Fall.
