***What Are You Smoking, July 2024?***

Just finished a bowl of Grousemoor in my Danmore. Perfect smoke for a sultry evening.

 

[JimInks]

Half way through this bowl of year 2000 VaPer Three Nuns in a 1938 straight black grain relief Dunhill OX Shell bulldog with a silver band repair with a black vulcanite saddle stem. Community Coffee, neat, is my drink.

Had my first-ever bowl of C&D Bayou Nights in a Bishop & Knight clay. It was spicy and flavorful without bite, which I appreciated as I managed to obliterate my tongue on Saturday evening with a bowl of SWR Aromatic, and had to lay off the pipe for a day to recover!

Did a little low calorie snacking, and am half way through this bowl of 2018 Sutliff Walnut Match in a 1990s smooth brown medium bend briar calabash shaped Butz-Choquin Maitre Pipier JR Fait Main with a horn ferrule and a black vulcanite stem. Ice water and bergs is my drink. Daisy the Feral Princess wouldn't come to me when I went outside to get her, but when I walked to the driveway to see what turned on the motion light, she was right with me. I didn't see anything, so I took the opportunity to pick up her over weight self, and brought her inside to eat. She ate plenty before going to the sofa to snooze. She kept staring at me because her blanket wasn't there, so I had to get it out of dryer. Once I set it down, she jumped on to it, and immediately went to sleep. Harry the Hairy was nasty to Tomato the Brave when I put him back outside. Tomato did stand his ground until I got between them, and he ran off. Harry's been laying on the doormat since then as if to advertise his dominance. Harry's not smart, but he is fiercely loyal to me. For his own sake, I wish he had a home where he could share and receive affection in a single cat home.

Just filled out our ballots to be dropped off tomorrow for local elections. I’m not getting political nor interested in doing such, I’m just providing context for the inspiration for composition of this evening’s photos (tough choices).

“Odds and Ends” in the FlySpray Special

 

[Tbaggins]

Classic Samsun in a Sav Tundra.

 

[Bbailey324]

Erinmore Flake in a Peterson 2023 Christmas 69. Recent manufacture tin. This stuff is a shadow of what it was 15+ years ago, I suppose whenever STG took over production. Similar topping flavor profile but minimal strength compared to the older iteration.

Easy listening time with some MB Golden Extra in the SMS for the big unwind...

 

[JimInks]

Almost half way through this bowl of year 2012 St. James Flake in a straight 1968 Dunhill Tanshell octagonal paneled EK F/T billiard with a square shank and tapered black vulcanite stem.

F&T Vintage in an Altinay.

Another go with Sixpence, this time in my Radice Rind "Elephante" (I'm gonna stick with that!) after a dinner out at our local. Took a few pics with the rabbit r1 of the view off the deck after: first is the basic 'magic' version, next two are "make it look steampunk" and "make it look like an apocalyptic wasteland" (her idea ).
