Ending the night with some Newminster 400 in a new to me rusticated Kaywoodie. I think this must’ve been someone’s Lakeland pipe.
I'm sure Shy Stripesy and Abner the Eager are eating elsewhere. Stripesy has put on at least four pounds since she started coming here. We used to feed her father until we found a good home for him.
I'm not sure about Tomato the Brave, but I don't think so. I know for sure that we are the only ones feeding Daisy the Feral Princess, who stays here most of the time. Tomato and Daisy's so-called "owners", particularly the "man" of the house, doesn't like cats, didn't feed them enough, and wouldn't let them in the house because his poor, dear senses were threatened by the smell of a litter box. He didn't care that his now eight year old daughter loved the cats. The wife gets no slack cut from me even though I know she really liked the cats, and was responsible for getting them. I say that because they got a dog knowing full well that would chase off the cats. I no longer speak to them because I don't like animal abusers. It takes a lot for me to turn my back on people, but I'm sure you understand why. I feel badly for their little girl even though I figure she loves that dog. I even changed the time I do walking reps so I can avoid seeing them when they come home from work because I'm afraid I'll give them more than ten pieces of my mind if I talk to them. Sorry to be less than my usual cheery self, but I doubt anybody with a particle of humanity would feel differently.
Enjoyed a tasty golden delicious apple, and am passing the first third of this bowl of year 2013 Capstan Blue Flake in a straight 1924 Dunhill’s “Shell Briar” patent pot 7 with a tapered black vulcanite stem. Ice water and bergs is my drink.
2014 Aylesbury Classic Flake in a Castello.
Just finished smoking Pfeifen Huber Virginia Golden Flake in a 1938 smooth straight brown patent Dunhill R 115 bowling ball apple with a tapered cumberland stem.
Now smoking year 2013 Esoterica Tilbury in a smooth medium bend 1999 Peterson Sherlock Holmes Series Milverton with a sterling silver band and a black vulcanite p-lip stem. Reading baseball box scores.

And a beer.

A quarter of the way through this bowl of year 2012 Carter Hall in a black rusticated medium bend 2021 Peterson POTY 4AB No. 437/500 military mount with a silver cap and a tapered black vulcanite AB stem. I may end the day with this smoke. It's still raining, but Daisy the Feral Princess and Tomato the Brave have stuck around to eat. Dunno where Abner the Eager is. Maybe he's at home if he has one.

I only smoked an 1/8 of this, then let the pipe sit and forgot about it.
Started back up on it tonight, and let me tell ya, if you have a good blend and you only smoke a little, and let it sit a day or two, don’t dump it out, give it a go again.
This stuff is still amazing after sitting like 21 hours in the pipe.
Be well everyone!
Still have a few things to do, and my last smoke of the day is Angler's Dream in a 2018 natural smooth medium bend Peterson 03 apple silver spigot military mount with a tapered black acrylic fish tail stem.
Saint Espresso in my Old Pal Canadiana rusticated zulu - a great smoker
We had our cat make his appearance last Christmas. He had a bad cut on one of his rear paws which he let me help him with. He was feral and sweet as can be. We got him fixed,chipped and he has all of his shots. He is now a half indoor, half outdoor cat. I've been a dog person all of my life and was part of the German Shepherd rescue for many years but my last two pets have been cats. He's a big boy at 26 inches nose to base of tail and13 lbs slim and trim. Great hunter. The picture with my daughter was the day that he chose us. He has grown since.
Brought a four year old tin of Escudo on a work trip, I forgot how good it is!

This is my first time seeing one of those junior lovats in someone's hand and it really puts into perspective the size of the pipe. Looks like a great little smoker!
Good day all! Starting this first day of Summer with Peterson Elizabethan Mixture in an Upshall B Newmarket Dublin with tapered stem.
