Just finished smoking early 2000s Edward G. Robinson's Pipe Blend in a 2014 Basil Meadows smooth slight bend squashed tomato with an aluminum band and a black pearl acrylic stem in the military mount style.

1-1/2 bowls of Sutliffe 507-C in the Vauen Olaf bent egg with 9mm filter ... hmmm ! I'm good for now !
Sutliff VaPer Crumble Cake in my new Abe Herbaugh. First time with the blend and the pipe! It’s a true relief that I can get back to some VaPers, when I first started, they were my favorite.

i get such a feeling of satisfaction seeing that pipe. beautiful design/lines to my eye!
Bayou Morning in a Savinelli Sigla.
Bobs square cut. The jury is still out. Tastes like a Va/Lat
Believe me, I know. I'm a good example of the realness of PAD.
Having a cup o’ joe on the front porch watching the rain. Enjoying Orlik Racing Green for the first time. Glad I was able to score a few tins. Very nice smoke!
Wanna bet? It is either that or divorce!Yeah right
JK, my lady is pretty understanding actually.
Did a set of walking reps on this hot and humid 103 degree heat index day, and smoked a bowl of year 2016 D&R Three Sails in an undated straight brush etched black Molina apple with a nickel band and a tapered black vulcanite stem.
Now smoking year 2020 Watch City Rouxgaroux in a smooth medium bend 2021 Peterson POTY Natural 4AB No. 6/500 military mount with a silver cap and a tapered black vulcanite AB stem. Got four Petes today incluing this year's POY, two Mark Twains, and a pre-republic Canadian.
Frog Morton On the Town in the Castello paneled no. 10 Occhio di Pernice.
50/50 Mix of C&D Bayou Night
and Habana Daydream in a meer.

Man I’d smack a toe with a hammer for a tin of Frog Morton these days.
Saw this too late! A Straight bowl of Rustica is just too damn much for me! I hate to admit this as I like to think I have a high nic tolerance. I might make this my VaPer Pipe since I'm back smoking a bowl a day. That Sutliff VaPer Crumble Cake is very cool burning. It's quite good.
I hope you are able to utilize your vapers again. I know you’ve been very disheartened about it.
Hopefully this is a sign you can ease back into them. I still cant believe how well your new addition turned out. Just stunning brother!
Jim (@JimInks), sounds good. I will smoke a bowl of Rouxgaroux in a John Bessai straight blasted straight bulldog John Bessai right now 
mmm good. Thank you, Jim, for giving your palate and time to Ernie and the guys in Boston to make some really great blends! Thinking of you, I'm going to try and pull up your NYT input on that lady cartoonist from the 50's or 40's (forgot her name), 'cause I REALLY ENJOYED reading what you had to say about her (short term memory fails me 'cause of that stroke last fall or maybe just old age LOL )?).
Just finished my first bowl in a used/estate Brigham from Smoking Pipes US with a fresh maple insert--filled with lovely HH Mac Baren Pure Virginia Flake. What luxury! What joy!! I gotta wonder if those great guys and gals throughout history (who are not so much studied now; i.e. Plato, Aristotle, etc and others perhaps still attended to--Jesus, Peter, Andrew, James & John, etc; and gals like Queen Victoria and those great queens and lady royalty from the Orient and Europe) smoked a bowl of something after lunch or in the cool of the evening? Perhaps if Adam had enjoyed a nice bowl in the Garden and paused to relight and take a puff, he might have said to her..."err, let my think about this for a minute while I sip this bowl... --no sacrilege intended and sorry for the typos if any.
Jim, You-Sir--ROCK!

Thats Awesome, A Mark Twain is one of my grail pipes. Hopefully one day I will find a good one.
Thanks, I'm quite pleased. A good ending for the year.
