Up next, 73 Canadian and then a 49 Pot. With the Americanas in my rear view mirror, my British pipes continue and as such begin this month‘s pipe smoking. Loaded with Artisans.
Did a brisk set of walking reps, 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 black tapered vulcanite stem.
Happy February all. Starting the month with Chelsea Morning in a Savinelli Apple.
About half way through this bowl of year 2001 VaPer Three Nuns in a 1938 straight black grain relief Dunhill OX Shell bulldog with a silver band repair with a black vulcanite saddle stem. Ice water and bergs is my drink.
None at all. Eventually the topping will weaken in a tin, so I'm smoking up my tins. Tubs hold the flavors better. Generally, aros don't improve with age because the toppings prevent the tobaccos from aging as one would normally expect. Long term, if the toppings in an aro fade, the tobaccos may age, but I am talking many years in this instance. And generally, I find long term aged aros have a less attractive flavor.

Daughters at school, wife's at work. Finished doing some stuff around the house, so now it's my time. I don't start my new job untill Thursday. Brought my whole glass jar of perfectly dried Carter Hall into the garage, and enjoying a bowl in my SMS meer apple, while having some root beer to drink.
For a second I thought I saw a fellow fly fisherman. But it looks like you are an insect collector. Well, that's cool too.
