***What Are You Smoking, June 2025?***

[Sobrbiker]

A fresh batch of my Dark Sails mix (equal parts Three Sails, 507-S, DFK) was my eye opener on the drive in.

Now I’m out pulling manholes with GLP Navigator in a Peterson “Sports” 2

More Cult BRM in my Bones.
Ive smoked this pipe almost daily for the last couple weeks....maybe 12 times. I am surprised how quickly it is coloring. Here are pictures from the first smoke and today's smoke. Sitting in the same place, with the same sweatpants.

I’ve gotta find me a short older Bones, but it’s hard to find ‘em with vulcanite.

Sweet and sour deliciousness

A third of the way through this bowl of year 2024 Edward G. Robinson's Pipe Blend in a 2014 Basil Meadows smooth slight bend squashed tomato with an aluminum band and a black pearl acrylic stem in the military mount style. Fed my cats and all four ferals. Ice water and bergs is my drink.

Boy that's a beauty, Paul.
Is this your first smoke with it or is this just a picture from when it was new??
Nice big "handful" of briar!!!

Another morning in hay......

Did a set of walking reps on this sunny, humid day, and have a quarter of a bowl left of year 2016 D&R Three Sails in a slight bent black pattern etched 1977 Lorenzo Lorsan Sigma level top billiard with a gray swirl acrylic saddle stem. Harry the Hairy stood driveway guard. Abner the Eager was two houses away watching me walk. Getting ready to watch the Braves-Brewers game. Today is an off diet day!

I'd just gotten started on this bowl of Cowboy Coffee in my IMP bent egg, when the sky opened up and began pouring rain. I decided to persevere and moved my chair under a big beech tree on the other side of the patio. Staying relatively dry here.

18 hours until our flight to Mexico boards. Hoping to get one more smoke in before then, but there's so much to get done today!

 

[PrivatePiping]

Yep! That's pretty right there

Thanks! I got lucky with that one since you don't get to pick your exact pipe at MS.

This one has Ebonite.

Gonna be warm later today (not yet noon here).

Enjoyed six Nathans hot dogs topped with mustard and chili and freshly made hand cut potato chips for lunch. Snacked on a bunch of unsalted peanuts, and a golden delicious apple, too. While waiting for dessert to finish baking and cool down, I'm smoking year 2020 Watch City Rouxgaroux in a smooth medium bend 2021 Peterson POTY Natural 4AB No. 6/500 military mount with a silver cap and a tapered black vulcanite AB stem. The last of this bag of Gold Star Peruvian Macchu Picchu, neat, is my drink. Watching the Braves-Brewers game with Sleepy Suzy by my side.

Thanks. The 4ABs were special, man. Great smokers, too limited a run. I'm just happy to have the entire set.

My first exposure to Sherlock Holmes was the movies where Basil Rathbone played Holmes. I quickly learned that Sherlock Holmes was one of the earliest fictional detectives. Thanks to my local library, I was able to read every one of the sixty Conan Doyle written Holmes stories. The next year...
