First smoke out of a Çelebi meerschaum. Haunted Bookshop.
Enjoying two espressos with a GBD rock root filled with Exclusive, Yum! Decided to read Mark Twains bio while grandsons play chess
Peterson Irish Cask from February 2022 in an Altinay translucent meerschaum billiard
Been spending my nights recently with The Old Boss out a Missouri Meerschaum Country Gentleman.
Relaxing after a wonderful salad, giant porterhouse steak, mashed potatoes and sweet corn dinner with freshly made peach ice cream for dessert. I've a third of a bowl left of 2021 Watch City Simply VOriental in a straight smooth medium brown 1930s Wilshire 5 bulldog (Comoy’s second) made for John’s Pipe Shop in Los Angeles with a black vulcanite saddle stem. Community Coffee, neat, is my drink. Watching the Braves-Phillies game, and when go to work, I'll listen to the rest of it.
Westminster in a Savinelli Roma Lucite bent pot
Pipeworks and Wilke #72 in the 2020 Stanwell POY

I love the pipe. I have some vintage Zulu's (Comoys, MCL, Hollycourt, Medico) and they are fabulous smokers.
Capstan Blue Flake in my grandfather's Kaywoodie
Passing the quarter mark of this bowl of Wilke Back Bay w/o perique in a straight smooth brown undated pre-Republic Peterson Dublin Sterling Canadian 264 with a sterling silver band and a tapered black vulcanite stem. Going to work now.
Silver Quarter in my Castello 4 square.
GL Pease Chelsea Morning from October 2011 in a Savinelli Silver 606 EX
More Steamworks tonight. When I first tried this, it was a Sunday morning with a black coffee on an empty stomach. Was a bit of a sledgehammer. Now, at night, after dinner, with a bourbon, it’s become one of my favourite tobaccos. Tonight, in my newly acquired God-like Blatter & Blatter smooth Canadian.
Set out a half-flake of Mac Baren Virginia Flake early this afternoon, for my Peterson Irish Harp 80s sandblasted bulldog.
Then the madness began...
A) Nearby brush fire
B) Horse colic episode
C) 70th b-day call to my Mom
D) All of the above
If you guessed D, you win...well, absolutely nothing. But it's still the correct answer.
A got put out quickly, B is all better now, and C is eating treif at some seaside bistro in Marin county. All showered up now, and finally enjoying this bowl here before dinner. 9.5/10
Bird report: House finch, Oak titmouse, White-breasted nuthatch, California scrub-jay, Mourning dove, Steller's jay, Mountain chickadee, Hairy woodpecker, American crow, Red-tailed hawk, California quail, and Western bluebird.
Hope everyone had a much duller day than I did. Mazel tov!

I went through my private messages and don’t see an invite?!?!
Happy (early) birthday!!
You are all invited!
3rd Tuesday of the month. Please PM if you're ever in the area (or want to make the drive from Toronto)!
Enjoyed a tasty golden delicious apple, and am not far from finishing this bowl of Wilke Hearth of Galway in an undated smooth straight medium brown made in France Saillard Lord Clerit lumberman with a black vulcanite saddle stem.
