Close to finishing this bowl of year 2017 Esoterica Dorchester in a straight smooth brown 1920s KBB Rocky Briar 1582 patent no.298978 with a B in a circle bulldog with a tapered black vulcanite stem. Going to work soon.

Listing this a few minutes early: D&R Raccoon’s Friend in a pre-1980s straight dark brown Comoy's Sandblast 186 billiard with a black vulcanite tapered stem. Off to work I go.
Going to light up Pipes and Cigars Fire Storm RO Series (2017) in an Arley Curtz Lovat—I recently learned this pipe was among over 100 made by Curtz for his brother in Okinawa; most were returned to the pipemaker last year (and cleaned, reamed and re-stenmed).
Thanks to @peteguy for the tobacco and the pipe!

Just got back from seeing Steve Earle & The Dukes at Knuckleheads - enjoying some Sunset Harbor Flake in a Jeantet Super Olympic

About a third of a bowl left of 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.
This evening, Elizabethan in a couple of different pipes again. I think this blend really works best for me in the Pot shape.
Half way through this bowl of Wilke Golden Sceptre in a late 40s, early 50s straight black sandblasted Wagner British Thorn 495 (Comoy’s second) pot with a black vulcanite saddle stem.

Be well everyone!

I did, couldn’t resist, the PAD was to strong ? I’m a big fan of the #33 shape as are you I note, some beautiful pipes in your collection. At first I thought it would be to heavy to clench but for some reason it is just fine which surprises as they are voluminous pipes with serious briar. I am now collecting #33’s which is extremely dangerous for my wallet ?
Finished work for the day, and am just passing the half way mark on this bowl of Watch City Beta Test Blend #1 in a black 1980 sandblasted Peterson Premiere 01 medium bend pot with a black vulcanite p-lip stem. This is the first Peterson that I bought.
Not far from finishing this bowl of Prince Albert in a 2020 smooth light brown, slight bent J. Everett straight grain chubby author with a spalted birch ferrule and a black saddle vulcanite stem in the military mount style. I'll end the day with this smoke.
