Finishing up the coffee. Pegasus in this Blakemar Briars Champion.
Lane 1Q in a Peterson SH Squire for Meerschaum Monday.
Finally, a dry day with sun, so, after lifting some incredibly late-planted potatoes so the winter onions can go in, some Rattray's Stirling Flake in a rusticated Futura with a Dublin bowl and saddle stem. Weird weather - this is the first time I've seen a bumble bee flying about in December.
Cool looking pipe. I've seen a few Meerschaum Petersons lately, they got a cool vintage classiness to them
MF+P in the Bones Poker, morning coffee.
Here's to Mondays!

Playing around with some tobacco as I wait for the elevator mechanics to show up for an inspection. This Black Flake is really interesting. There seems to be a lot more to it than I can grasp after only a few bowls. I haven’t looked up the reviews or its components yet but Virginia seems to be the predominant ingredient but I don’t know which varieties. I think perique but it seems to have some burley and maybe Kentucky? Either way I’m liking it more and more each time I smoke it which is always a good thing. Jake Hackert pot
Part way through this bowl of year 2024 Edward G. Robinson's Pipe Blend in a 2014 Basil Meadows smooth slight bend squashed tomato with an aluminum band and a black pearl acrylic stem in the military mount style. Fed all the cats except for the absent Tomato the Brave. He occasionally is elsewhere when it rains. The rain has turned to light snow. We seldom get snow this early in December so I doubt that it'll amount to much. No walking today for me.
Good afternoon, gentlemen. C&D Exclusive in a Castello partly rusticated Trademark Dublin. Italian Roast on the side.
Morning chores done. A bowl of ‘22 We three Kings in the Ropp “J04-10B”.

Yes, I have had season tickets in the past, primarily for Indy car and vintage races. I haven't been for some time, though. I have not been to any of the three F1 races in the US. A buddy of mine has been to all three and recommends Las Vegas as the easiest from a spectator's perspective. I might go to one at some point, probably Austin as COTA is the best course of the three. Mid-Ohio is way more affordable, though!
That repair looks great. Was it difficult to do? I have a J04 with a cracked mortise too.Morning chores done. A bowl of ‘22 We three Kings in the Ropp “J04-10B”.

My sincere condolences for your loss. 16 years is a lot of beautiful memories. @Speak Easy
On the menu for my commute to work today was a bowl of Carolina Christmas loaded in my nameless French paneled pipe paired with a delightfully black coffee.
I hope you all have a quick and painless Monday.

C&D Bayou Morning in a Peterson 230. I must have grabbed xtra Perique for this pack, it’s spicy. 
C&D London Squire / Peterson Donegal Rocky 120.
Haunted Bookshop in a Savinelli Tortuga 673KS. 
HU Dark Moor in an IMP Poker and an Americano 
️ on the side.
Another round of snow coming down today and about 5 inches so far and currently 22f hence the early Americano!

Not smoking much lately. Seem to be getting more tongue bite and sore throat with it. Smoked a small bowl of Luxury Navy Flake in a clay today. It was enjoyable.
