First bowl of the day. I’ve been busier than a one-legged man in an ass-kickin’ contest.

Watch City 'Old Dominion' in a Wayne Teipen
G.H American ultimum in rustic Sharrow.
2011 Dunhill Deluxe Navy Flake in a Larrysson Dublin.
Mac Baren HH Rustica in a Meer...
The second Dunhill well worn small billiard found in a flea market lot. This one is a 250 shape, out of round chamber, after market silver band covering the size and date markings, crappy replacement stem. My first smoke in it, on a hot and humid day. Royal Yacht is a go-to blend because it is stable and very forgiving. Unlike yesterday’s Dunhill, this one has developed a gurgle in the first quarter of the bowl but otherwise smoking well, if a bit warm.
Quenching with a lovely martini with Roku, a gin that uses Japanese botanicals. Delicious.

About a quarter of a bowl left of Watch City Off the Rails in a medium bend raw sienna toned early Radice sandblast egg with bamboo carving on the shank and a black acrylic saddle stem. Got all my walking in today. Looks like we may finally get rain.

GLP Kensington in a Castello Sea Rock 55
A second bowl of C&D Interlude for the day...watching the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly for the first time. This movie is awesome so far.
How do you get the tin labels off fully intact? I usually don’t have a problem on cylindrical tins like C&D and GLP but have little success on flat tins.
I love this shape. Sort of like driving a fast car or motorcycle while smoking and oversized pot. There’s just something about it. Slightly swept back, prodigious yet streamlined.
