Enjoying some Seattle Pipe Club - Mississippi River in my Savinelli 645 bent apple Short Pipe.
Having some H&H White Knight in a 1950s era Peterson straight Apple w/ vulcanite p-lip stem this afternoon. Seemed fitting on a warm December day here in Wisconsin

Unlikely to be Himself. Apparently the Dubai license plate market is a hot one, with auction proceeds going to charity. "Going out to buy a license plate is considered more of a hassle in America, whereas in Dubai, it’s one of the most important things you can do as a car owner."
Earlier in the morning I smoked Daughters and Ryan Three Sails with Angostura Orange

Did a set of walking reps on this cold, sunny day, and am close to finishing this bowl of year 2016 D&R Three Sails in an undated straight brush etched black Molina apple with a nickel band and a tapered black vulcanite stem. Lunch follows this smoke.

Just warm enough to get in a mid day smoke. Enjoying Steamworks in a Moretti morta.
Beautiful and unseasonably warm so I took the afternoon to get some last bits of things done outside - celebrating a little private something in the peace and quiet of the garage and marking it with the first real cigar I’ve had pretty much ever. Ashton VSG Tres Mystique - I picked up a small group of different “short smokes” to sample over the winter. It’s pretty decent - I recall what the Tiparillos I’d “borrow” from my Grandpa were like long, long ago and thankfully this is much better and interesting.

Capt Earles Ten Russians in a Pub Pipe
50/50 Bob's Chocolate Flake & 507c Virginia Slices in a Peterson's Meer Professor .
Enjoyed a tasty lunch, and am half way through this bowl of the newly made Wilke Back Bay Light in an undated straight smooth brown pre-Republic Peterson’s Sterling bulldog 150 with a sterling silver band and a black vulcanite saddle p-lip stem. This blend has much less perique (10%) than the regular Back Bay (which was my idea that John Brandt blended). This version was my idea, too, as I wanted a lighter VaPer for this pipe. This is the first time I have smoked this pipe which will be dedicated to this blend. Gold Star Jamaican Blue Mountain, neat, is my drink.
Now smoking some Samuel Gawith - Skiff Mixture in my Savinelli 616KS Onda.
WCC Rouxgaroux in a Merchant Service Standard.
Smoking some WCC SS in a IMP waiting for the rain.
F&K Lancer Slices in a sea rock.
@RobNYC I enjoyed the Yorktown in my clays; I was smoking Yorktown when Jason the blacksmith lit my clay pipe with an ember from his forge!
