Relaxing on the back deck. Grayson the dog and Dino the cat have been playing. I'm smoking some C & D Sweet Burley in my new Larry Roush poker. Good times........sparkling water to drink.

Had a nice afternoon with Peretti’s Ampersand in a Falcon. It’s a new blend to me that I really liked. Could see myself ordering more. 
I had a MM Legend full of OJK Blue after breakfast this morning. Then I loaded up the General with the same and I have been working on it throughout the day in between honeydo tasks.
Been to live music gig at the Neptune tonight, good to see Callum and his band. They used to come nearly every week but not so often now, good to see them again!
Callum & Melvin got me a pint of cask ale for my birthday, had 4 pints tonight but only paid for 1. Jack & Melvin say they'll both get me a cask pint as a birthday present.
Just 1 vape today, 19 so far this month.
Got bought 3 pints of cask ale & given 3 cigarettes, smoked all my pipeweed now.
I think if I was with the Sealed Knot I'd be GUZZLING ale & BONFIRING pipeweed

English Civil War Weekend - Sherwood Forest
We're thrilled to be hosting John Bright's Regiment of Foote for a weekend of historical re-enactment at Sherwood Forest, transporting us back to the volatile times of the English Civil War. It's 1644. The battle of Marston Moor has been won for Parliament, and the Earl of Manchester is moving...

Spot the clay pipe
4 year old HH Burley Flake in a blasted Willmer Canadian.
@renfield Sounds like a baccy for the King's Clay!
Peretti No.8 Slice in the Pete Short Army Pot 606 on a perfect 70F sunny evening.
Second cigar this week: an Oliva Serie O Maduro
It pales in comparison to yesterday’s Hemingway, but still pleasant.

Another cigar: Trinidad Espiritu Series No 2
Relaxing after a wonderful giant porterhouse steak with a small baked potato and mac' and cheese dinner. Dessert was two big slices of lemon blueberry cake and a bowl of vanilla bean ice cream. I'm smoking year 2012 Rolando’s Own in a smooth straight 1960s Lane era “William Conrad” Charatan Executive Extra Large stretch apple with diagonal channel cuts on the lower right and left of the bowl along with a black vulcanite double comfort saddle stem. A bottle of Boylan's Birch Beer is my drink. It's too durn humid for coffee tonight. Watching the Braves-Phillies game with Sleepy Suzy by my side. The storm stopped a while ago, and Daisy the Feral Princess wanted out. So did Tomato the Brave, but he came back in about fifteen minutes ago, ate, and is getting a brushing from m'lady. Abner the Eager has snoozed all day and evening under the kitchen table. Harry the Hairy has done the same, except he's stayed in the bathroom.
Wessex Gold Virginia Flake in a Castello.
GH&Co Black Twist (sliced) in a Ropp J04.
Mix is a little soupy, but it’ll be alright come tomorrow.

HU Director’s Cut in a Suhr Dublin and Ginger Tea on the side.
After dinner bowl of Red Hunt in an unnamed apple meer with ice cold water on a beautiful early evening. Working up the gumption to go handle the couple acres of lawn which is about ready for some attention.
I smoked an entire new tin of Peterson Sherlock Holmes in three different pipes: a MM Country Gentleman, a MM Mark Twain, and a Peterson Emerald series 106. It was a long drive. Mastered the one handed refill as well.
Rabbit Air MinusA2 installed in the bunkhouse and I'm breaking in this Mira Pipes Volcano with some C&D Burley Flake no.1
History on this pipe, my wife told me on our anniversary last month that she had ordered it but it had been lost in the mail between Serbia and The US. It arrived put of the blue a little bit back and I'm over the moon with it!
As for the Rabbit Air, with the layoff notice at the end of last month, I learned that I had a bunch of money in my HSA to burn and I could use it on an air purifier! Rabbit Air also hooked me up with a doctor's letter of necessity to turn in with my insurance company!
Buddy came over to help me break it in and we're chilling with some anime on the TV. I'm going to get spoiled out here

Now smoking year 2020 Mac Baren Scottish Mixture in a straight, smooth brown 1960s Lane era Charatan Special 38 bulldog with a black vulcanite saddle stem. About two minutes after my last post, Abner the Eager came out of hiding, jumped on my lap, and snoozed until a few minutes ago. He jumped on the floor, and laid down about a foot away on my left. Tomato the Brave came over to get some attention, and he got some head and ear rubs. I know he was jealous of Abner. Then they started staring at each other, and I told Tomato to move away, which he did. Abner got up, and jumped on m'lady's lap, which is where he is now. Tomato is by my feet. Getting ready to clean a few pipes.
2015 Peterson Signature Flake in my MarTelo bent billiard.
