Pipe Force VI in an Eltang lumberman
Second bowl of MConnell Orientals in the Il Ceppo. Beautiful day along the Colorado.
Rouseco Golden Harvest Yellow in a miniature bent Buescher’s Famous Pipes Cob likely fifty or more years old.
There was a forum member who posted his Grandfather’s 1935 cob pipe was very small.
When Americans bought maybe a hundred million cob pipes a year, and smoked maybe a hundred times more pipe tobacco, there was the smallest size of cob designed for a cigarette size smoke.
It’s surprisingly good, but I have to be careful to not burn my nose.

C&D John Marr in an IMP Meerschaum. 
Mood is as bright as the sun this morning. Coffee and some WCC Deluxe Crumb Cut in a Sav 626. 
Passing the quarter mark of this bowl of C&D Toscano Maestro Allegro in a medium bend fumed tan crackled year 2020 Ahmet Govem reverse calabash meerschaum with a military mount silver band and black acrylic stem. I was going to do a set of walking reps, but the rain returned as I was getting ready to go. Oh well, I need to finish my reviewing.
KBV Jim's Special Flake in a Savinelli Linea Piu 3.
Second of the two obligatory daily smokes in my (only) meerschaum . I kind of like having one; when I don't know which pipe to pick, I just figure I'll "work on" the meer. Tough chore; as Mark Twain once said about finding the energy to occasionally correct the course of the guy doing the rowing toward a distant island in Lake Tahoe, a lesser man would have rested.
Watch City Cigar 4Q in a Claw Meerschaum 
Peterson System CP 308 and Boswell’s Cherry Vanilla. 
PS Bullseye in a Kaywoodie Super Grain with shank logo and a bottle of Cranborne Poacher Ruby ale. I got a lovely sirloin from the butcher this morning which I’ll cook up with a peppercorn sauce and fries later, this would probably be my last meal of choice if I had any day in the matter. 
Got all my morning chores done. Brewed up a nice cup of Kenya black tea and grabbed the 12b, Meer lined Kaywoodie (
@Sobrbiker).
Decided to smoke a 50/50 mix of 2017 Yorktown and some 2021 Red Virginia Ribbon.

C&D Anthology 23. In a Peterson POY 23.
GLP Montgomery in a Genod Bulldog
Erinmore Flake in a different Super Grain, still drinking the same beer but a dram of JW Black Label magically appeared next to it. Funny how often that happens. 
Oooh I like that, very niceGLP Montgomery in a Genod Bulldog
Orlik Golden Sliced in a BST Bent Billiard.
Smoking a bowl of Dark Plug in a small meerschaum 'cutty' whilst I drink of a mug of Miso soup and check that all my chores are done for the month of January including paying the bills! I sometimes wish I was eighteen years old again with all my concerns revolving around getting my study work in on time to my lecturer and deciding which pub I would be frequenting that night. Remember in those days in the U.K you could smoke in the pub and sit by the fire and generally behave in a civilized manner.
