This is Arrowhead in the Sav billiard, Cafe Bustelo, in whole milk with a scoop of vanilla latte…sunshine now at midday, but cold. Best to all…

Finally, after 4 months of abstaining from pipe smoking while my dental implant osseointegrated, I'm about to return to pipe smoking, in moderation to start (meaning 1-2 bowls/week to begin with). I expected some sort of withdrawl or cravings, but I haven't had anything except missing the relaxing time I spent with nature, or a book, or with you all, and a pipe.

In any case, this is my last "prohibition" post, and I look forward to joining you again with discussions of what I'm currently smoking!
