Smoking some 10 year old LBF in a Rich Lewis pipe. It's interesting how the flavor has shifted with age. It's moved from being a little sweet to a little more savory. Enjoyable.

Now smoking Wilke No. 72 in a pre-1974 dark brown straight Larus & Brother Co. Signature billiard with a nickel band and a tapered black vulcanite stem with the initials LCR on the top of the stem. This blend was smoked by Walter Cronkite. Sam the Scamp showed up after that feral left, and is relaxing after a nice meal. Looking at just their faces, one would almost swear they were the same cat. I wonder how many of those striped cats are out there.
My Lane Black Rspberry hasn’t seen the light of day since I discovered Devil’s Holiday, but @Carol’s post started a mini-movement.

And I have an unopened tin of Devils Holiday that I don't want. Don't care for it.
Now smoking Wilke Surbrug’s Crystal Palace in a dark brown smooth straight post-WW2 LHS Certified Purex 79 bulldog with a nickel ferrule and tenon with a black vulcanite saddle stem. This'll get me to snack time.

Listing this a few minutes early: D&R Penhooker Silver in a straight smooth brown undated pre-Republic Peterson Shamrock 263 Canadian with a nickel band and a tapered black p-lip stem. Ice water and bergs is my drink.
Smoking some 2017 McClelland Navy Cavendish in a little Don Carlos lovat. A favorite smoke.

Not far from finishing this bowl of year 2018 Mac Baren Acadian Perique in a straight smooth brown 1933-36 KBB Yello-Bole Honey Cured Briar 2384 Acorn with a tapered yellow rock ambra stem.
Coffee and Käpt'n Barsdorf's Bester Kentucky in the meerschaum pipe, to start this Sunday.
A schoolmate is an actress and we are going to see her play in the theatre this evening, good to have old friends!
May you be all well (and warm) good people!

Now smoking C&D Virginia Gentleman in a straight smooth dark brown pre-1940s Comoy’s Jost’s Olde English Supreme J299 Canadian with a tapered black vulcanite stem. Working and listening to Our Miss Brooks. Back in the early 1990s, we named one of our cats after Miss Brooks, though I usually called her "Brooksie". Her sister was named "Gracie" after Gracie Allen.
Finished work for the day, and half way through this bowl of Wilke Edwin’s Burley in a post-WW2 straight smooth brown pre-Republic Peterson’s Dublin 3 Shamrock bulldog with a nickel band and a tapered black vulcanite p-lip stem. This blend is Wall Street with much less perique (10%) than the regular W.S. (which was my idea that John Brandt blended). This version was my idea, too, as I wanted a lighter BurPer for this pipe.
