Now smoking Watch City Beta Test #4 in a medium bend grain etched 1970s Preben Holm Ben Wade Prominence B freehand with a black vulcanite stem. Haven't smoked this pipe in a long time. Taking a work break to relax, watch the ball game, and pay a little more attention to this blend.
Sun Bear Tupelo for the second time today. In a Rossi 8311 this time. This tobacco has really grabbed my attention. I was psyched when I found two tins still available online today. 
Match Victorian in the Big Bent Lattice meer with a non-alc IPA from Bend, OR. Not bad, but the Althletic Brewing non-alcs are still the best, imho.
Almost a third of the way through this bowl of Watch City Beta Test #4 in a brown sandblasted medium bend 1970s Savinelli Autograph 5 freehand with a black vulcanite saddle stem. Haven't smoked this pipe in a long time.
Today's smokes were Peterson EMP in the Dr Grabow Regal straight squat bulldog, and Sutliff Victorian (Elizabethan Match) in the Big Ben Ranger. Both very nice, despite the wind on my porch today. 
Smoking my last bit of Briar Fox in a cob
2017 McClelland Beacon Extra in a German tavern clay.
Don’t think I checked in earlier after lunch, 1849 in a cob.
One side note: if you’re ever watching a flick and someone comes up a storm or other sewer and slides the lid off from below to pop themselves out-it’s horseshit.

Sutliff Crumble Kake No.3 in a Savinelli 114KS. Can really taste the bourbon in this bowl.
The shadow you cast bears a likeness to J. Robert Oppenheimer.
Peterson ‘21 POTY 4AB and Wilke No. 515 - first blend I ever tried and still a favorite. Enjoying some good company! 
Well, some days I do feel like nuking this entire sh*tshow, then realize “this too shall pass”
Early morning water checks and shifting a few cattle about. I'm smoking Stokkeby's English Luxury in a little Briar Works Cutty whilst I watch Mother Nature put on a little show.
Short bowl of Hal to get the re-Pete 102 Short Army started.
