***What Are You Smoking? December 2019.***

[JimInks]

Just got home from a fabulous birthday dinner with m'lady, mother-in-law and a long time friend. As great a time as I had, I was also happy to get home and have a smoke, which is year 2016 Anniversary Kake in a smooth 1979 Chippendale (Charatan second) Rhodesian 49 with a black vulcanite saddle stem. Suzy and Molly were happy to see us return as well on this cold and rainy night.

Just settled in after work smoking a bowl of C&D Snug Harbor and drinking some red wine and unwinding.

Happy Birthday, Jim! Cold and rainy here in the Bay Area as well. Perfect weather for my last bowl of Squadron Leader from a recent tin. In my Rossi 8673.

Oh Yes, Happy birthday!

Wessex Brigade Campaign Dark Flake in a Tilshead billiard. Cold and rainy here too, with a vicious wind off Lake Michigan. At least I won't have to shovel tomorrow.

Thanks to everyone for the great birthday wishes I sure had a wonderful day.
