I am not big on cobs, but the look and feel really dragged me in. Five bowls through it I am really enjoying it.
Now smoking year 2013 Capstan Blue Ready Rubbed in a straight smooth brown 1933-1945 Comoy’s patent Grand Slam 159 *4 apple with a tapered black vulcanite stem.
Smoked two bowls of Bonsun plug in a MM Country Gentleman bent whil working in the yard.
Good day all! Started with KBV Prince of Wales in a Burak Connoisseur smooth Tankard with tapered stem size 2 (coax out a flavor or two; it worked). Late afternoon bowl of C&D John Marr in an Upshall P Lovatt.
Cross training with an Arturo Fuente Maduro Esquisito 
Now smoking year 2014 Astley’s No. 55 in a 1915-1920 straight smooth dark brown BBB Own Make 150 apple with a silver band and a tapered black vulcanite stem. Watching the Braves-Mets game.
3 Nuns Green (Virginia Perique Kentucky) mmm good - well dried and cut into cubes...err, small pieces 
Vanilla Roll Cake in a Savinelli Arcobaleno 606KS that used to be all blue.
Twas a gift from the heart and smokes well, so I cherish the pipe. However, I wouldn't buy one due to the fading color. Maybe one day it will look almost natural again.

Today's smokes were:
Amphora Virginia in the Peterson 80s bulldog
Peterson Flake in the Savinelli 313 prince
Both were good, but I preferred the Peterson Flake this time around.

Kaywoodie Connoisseur and Cult Blood Red Moon. 
C&D Star of the East in a Dunhill Group 4 Shell panel.
Trying a new Country Squire VaPer that I got from JD at a show last month. I think it's available by now, but it's called "Ancalaqua the Black" (sp?)
It reminds me of Green Dragon with Perique. It's still pretty fresh and needs some time but I was eager to give it a smoke.
Smoking from a pre-war BBB
