Half way through this bowl of year 2004 Edgeworth Slices in a straight sandblasted black billiard 2013 PSF POY Kaywoodie with an amber colored tapered lucite stem. Just finished cleaning a few pipes. The rain and thunder has returned.
Peretti Tashkent, an absolutely beautiful blend!, in my SMS 6-panel bent lattice meer.
Great sounding parfait .... if I can someday add Sir John's Flake Virginia to a future TAD.
But it's a Fri Parfait Night here. Have a nice Virginia mixture of Mac Baren VA #1 & Rattray Black VA on top of a half bowl of GH Brown Flake U/S. So much "Virginia Goodness" -- loaded two Canadians with this Fri Parfait.
Alongside, sipping some Canadian Whisky on ice with a piece of lemon peel & a splash of water.
Things could be worse (!!!). : )
C&D Bayou Morning in the Bruken Master Deluxe 1006 Rusticated

Beautiful pipes, even though swan necks aren’t my thing.
Great side by side blend too (I favor the green).
Gramma and the midget are off looking at the neighbors’ sheep so I finished the horse chores. C&D Exclusive in the FlySpray Special.
Made a point of wrapping up my ranch chores early and rinsing the day off me, for full enjoyment of a single coin of Peterson DeLuxe Navy Rolls in a Foyard rhodesian as the sun sets. Nothin' better! Well, short of hitting the lottery. 9/10.
Bird report: California scrub-jay, House finch, California towhee, Steller's jay, American crow, Northern goshawk, Red-tailed hawk, California quail, Northern flicker, Oak titmouse, Mountain chickadee, Hairy woodpecker, and Western bluebird.
Thoroughly exhausted, but feeling pretty good about things all in all. Shabbat shalom!

Half way through a bowl of Haunted Bookshop Cake in a Jirsa 210.
First smoke as a new resident of Missouri! Exclusive in a Peterson Irish Harp Lovat. Been a long week, moving companies have made it seem neverending. The picture taken in the daylight is of cotton fields basically in my backyard. 
Enjoyed a tasty golden delicious apple, and am smoking Seattle Pipe Club Give Me Liberty in a straight smooth medium brown pre-1920 straight Marechal Ruchon & Cie. Royale apple with a sterling silver band and a tapered black vulcanite stem.
Re-upping for round two with Tashkent in the 6-panel bent lattice meer while listening to Professor of Rock:
Passing the half way mark of this bowl of Watch City American Cut Plug Mixture in a black rusticated medium bend 2021 Peterson POTY 4AB No. 67/500 military mount with a silver cap and a tapered black vulcanite AB stem. Ice water and bergs is my drink. Watching the Pirates-Dodgers game. We have thunderstorms and lightning, and flash flood warnings. It's a good thing that we live on a hill. Daisy the Feral Princess wanted inside, and she's by my feet. Harry the Hairy surprises me that he's not scared by any of this, and he is outside where the rain won't blow on him. Tomato the Brave and Abner the Eager are wherever they are when the weather is like this. Wish I knew where they were, but one thing I do know is that they are not together.
CAO Meerschaum and Quiet Nights.
Here for over a month the highs have not dropped below 100F with peaks of 104. I can't smoke anymore. I skipped yesterday, let's see how it goes today.
I'm enjoying some of G.L. Pease's "The Merry Monk"!!
Two cigars today. In the morning it was Oliva Serie V Melanio. Now it is San Lotano The Bull 
Two Friends Heritage in a Tilshead Bulldog.
