Peretti’s Ampersand Flake in this Poul Olsen bent Dublin with a flute or two of Champagne. I’m celebrating my first smoke in this finally unghosted pipe, my newfound and growing appreciation for Virginias and the fact that I’m out of beer….

First try of C&D Pegasus in my MM Mini-cob. Wowzers! Definitely a where-have-you-been-all-my-life moment. I'll have to see what a full bowl is like another time, but man...this one might even dethrone my current favorite of the genre, Eight State Burley.

Bird report: California scrub-jay, California quail, California towhee, California thrasher (any guesses as to where my location is?), House finch, White-crowned sparrow, Oak Titmouse, Dark-eyed junco, White-breasted nuthatch, Spotted Towhee, and Common raven.

Happy smokes folks! Hey, that rhymes...

Took the Falcon Meer lunting for it's first smoke. The Falcon frame is from early American production, the new bowl from Turkey. As it arrived the same day, Peretti D-7485, an American blend with a bit everything including some Turkish leaf was a natural. 13 deg F and getting a bit (too) windy...!
