Well put.Smoking a $10 estate pipe and man does this thing smoke great. A John Bessai, filled with Wilke Lizzie blood ? red , be glad pipe smokers we have the means to relax, so many of my relations are perplexed that I can absorb adversity and stay calm. Thanks to my briars and smoking brothers! Listening to Tony Rice who passed away recently. A legendary guitar picker. ?View attachment 59216
Smoked a bowl of Pembroke yesterday. When I held the jar to the light it sparkled like crushed diamonds. Good stuff.Finished off the last of my jar of Pembroke. Shed bitter tears, then remembered I have an unopened bag of Pembroke and popped a tin of Orlik Dark Strong Kentucky to celebrate! Happy Friday!
