After working on a repair to my Lorenzo Sponge, now heading out to finish the second half of Bob's CH Flake in the Masonmade Strawberrywood Poker I started last night (but had to abandon because it was too windy and cold ...and my beer was empty).

One of life's great pleasures... mature Virginia in a virgin cob.
Enjoying a bowl of 2018 MacBaren HH Pure Virginia in a MM cob alongside a glass of bourbon.

Lane Era Charatan's Make Executive Extra Large with Ready Rub in my infinity spa overlooking the pool 
Trying my first tin of Rattray’s Hal o’ the wynd in an old Big-Ben tarta-ruga Canadian. I’ve heard really good things about this blend, hope it lives up to the hype.
Just finished smoking year 2021 HU Directors Cut in a smooth medium brown slight bend 1950s Comoy’s London Pride 337C prince with a tapered black vulcanite stem.
Now smoking Seattle Pipe Club Hogshead in a well appreciated medium bend, smooth brown pre-Republic Peterson 999 Dublin chubby Rhodesian with a tapered black vulcanite p-lip stem. Might not finish it before dinner, but it'll all get smoked.
With great relish I am looking forward a bowl of my downright neglected Wingfield in the pre-Cadogan Comoy's Sandblast medium billiard with three-drill logo in the still very oxidized vulcanite stem.
Bosun Cut Plug in a Comoys Christmas 1976
Very pretty indeed!
Cuban Mixture is the first bowl in my new Peterson Irish Harp 80s.
Send your doc a dozen roses and some chocolate--he'll love you for it! (and the nurses will be ROFLing!)
Found some time for a few more chapters on LOTRs. Rivendale in a Dunhill church warden with an adult beverage.
C&D Yorktown in my flea bay meer (y’all’ve seen it before).
My scratchy palate/throat/nose with the onset of a cold probably isn’t the best platform for tasting new to me VaPers…

Fresh WCC Glass Slipper in a fresh 2022 Peterson System Spigot Sandblast 307.i buffed the stem with some carnauba prior to smoking and now it’s pulling lint off my fleece… not a hairy stem.
I had a bit of Glass Slipper left over after bagging up some bulk for the cellar, so I figured I’d try it fresh. The other stuff I’ve been smoking has about 6 months on it. Not to different, but at mid bowl the perique has a little sharpness.
Bell’s Kalamazoo Stout is my beverage after several hours of blowing out an 18” snowfall.

Just got home from our monthly, Holy Smokes Bible study at Sturman’s Cigar and Wine.
Took the Morgan Bones Porch Buddy and Gatlin Burlier Newfound Blend.

Watching my Kings take on the Devils. Had a bowl of KVB Embry's B Bread in a Dunhill, and some 2018 McClelland's VerPer in a Peterson.
Dunhill Navy Rolls in a Castello great line.
Germain’s Hampton Flake from February 2018 in an Altinay translucent meerschaum billiard. This is bowl no 350
that is a great looking pipe! nice rustication!
