Did a set of walking reps, and smoked a bowl of year 2016 D&R Three Sails in an undated straight brush etched black Molina apple with a nickel band and a black tapered vulcanite stem.
Peterson Irish Oak purchased on September 2017 in a Mike Couch Devil ? Anse
Now smoking Erik Stokkebye 4th Generation Evening Flake in a smooth medium bend 2021 Peterson Ebony POTY 4AB No. 422/500 military mount with a silver cap and a tapered black vulcanite AB stem. Ice water and bergs is my drink.
@OzPiper The Sherlock Holmes / Dr Watson is coloring very nicely, although due to the size also very slowly.
I took a picture of all my meerschaum pipes today for a coloring progress status report. To bring out the true color as much as possible, I used natural light from a window. The the window was at the side, so I could not avoid some shadows. Next time, I will take this photo outdoors. The white sheet is for taking exposure reading / white balance. It also acts as a reference of true white. The Meerschaum tamper is old and has possibly picked up a little color, but still can be a reference for a Virgin white meerschaum.
The Rhodesian (which I call Bulldog) and the Falcon bowl has been smoked 200+ times. The volcano is nearing 150, and the Holmes Watson set is possibly just under 140 smokes each.The photo is not edited (Except for a tight crop)

WCC Simply Red order just delivered - firing it up in a Peterson Deluxe Classic PSB 606 while doing a little Saturday afternoon schoolwork.
Another beautiful day. As soon as I finish this very pleasant bowl of Anglers Dream, I will be going for a nice long walk with my dog. Hope everyone has a great weekend.

Thank you! It smoked nicely, too. It has a nice open draw and I had a nice, relaxing two hour smoke after a long day.

C&D Mountain Camp, burley based with Latakia, Orientals, Perique, and Virginia, a full-strength English blend, in a La Rocca Rosa slightly bent rusticated poker, a sitter of course. I saw this pipe at my local pipe shop and thought the carved rustication was overdone, but it kept coming to mind, and after a week or ten days, I decided to go back, and if it was still there, I'd buy it.
It's aged well, and now the rustication has somehow advanced from folksy to sophisticated, maybe because the stain has darkened a little without looking worn.

Extremely windy day here in the mountains. Decided to head back into the man cave to finish this bowl. Enjoying some Oak Alley from a Peterson estate. This blend has really grown on me in the past month or so.

Just finished a bowl of OJK in a Royal Danish on a very warm day here in the Southwest. This weekend is supposed to have wonderful weather so I'll probably have a few more pipes before its over. Hope everyone is having a great weekend!
