Connoissuer’s Choice in a Nording Nordcoat Freehand sitter.
Now smoking C&D Yorktown in a straight sandblasted black circa 1920s-30s (Comoy’s) Ancestor bulldog with a black vulcanite saddle stem.
Close to finishing this bowl of year 2021 KBV Your Welcome in a straight smooth dark brown 1930s (Comoy’s) Canadian Club 230 eight paneled billiard with a tapered black vulcanite stem.
First bowl in almost a year. MM Elf Cobbit full of KBV BMP by a campfire with a mug full of hot coffee.
A minute or two away from smoking C&D Virginia Gentleman in a straight smooth dark brown pre-1940s Comoy’s Jost’s Olde English Supreme J299 billiard with a tapered black vulcanite stem. Ice water and bergs is my drink.
50/50 Mac Baren Bold Kentucky & Mac Baren Old Dark Fired RR. I miss Mac Baren Burley London Blend.
Why the long break? And how was the smoke after that long? I remember having a year-long break and getting back to smoking a pipe was a wonderful experience.
In short, the doctor told me I had to pick two between alcohol, meat, and tobacco. It was a no brainer. But then I quit drinking a few months ago and figured what the hell. Slow, self-aware re-entry and see how it goes. To that end, I brought 8 pipes and 17 blends with me on this trip.
Watch this space.
Coincidentally my next bowl is going to be some BLB I stoved in 2021 and have had jarred ever since. Beyond excited for that one. It’s going in my translucent Meer from @Said.ALTINAY
Game on.
Smoking bowl of 4th Generation Resolution in my new MM Cob while listing pipes on eBay (not cool enough to post on the for sale section yet 
).
Really am enjoying this Resolution tobacco. Think I’ll stay with it for awhile..or until I run out anyway.

Glad to have you back and hope the health stuff continues on the right track,
I forgot the second part - it was incredible. I have a minor love affair with BMP. Both times it’s been in (and subsequently out) of stock in the last few weeks have been my fault. I love it. I haven’t even really had any coffee in the last year, or so, because of how much tea I now drink. But BMP with a fresh cup of coffee is one of life’s simplest and greatest pleasures. I made sure they reunited in my life in the perfect setting - a blazing hot campfire, a pretty cold temperature, and at a cabin during a week long vacation. To be fair, I could have been smoking on @Ahi Ka ‘s Captain Black Grape stash and it would have been sublime, but it was exactly what I’d hoped for.
Enjoyed a tasty golden delicious apple, and am passing the quarter mark on this bowl of Wilke No. 72 in a pre-1974 dark brown straight Larus & Brother Co. Signature billiard with a nickel band and a tapered black vulcanite stem with the initials LCR on the top of the stem. This blend was smoked by Walter Cronkite. Listening to Bob Dylan's Theme Time Radio Hour.
thank You Sir,come spring I will try to shoot some selected photos from around here.My God man! Let’s get out there and start showing us some of that great Finnish Country side and Fjords with the pipes! LOL
Just kidding a little, BUT, oh man, if there’s some nice Finnish scenery around you, I’d love to see it all the time!
THANKS

Morning smoke of Amphora Original Brown in a BBB Silver Grain 709 long shanked medium billiard
About a third of a bowl left of Wilke No. 515 Double Shot in a smooth dark medium bend 2021 Peterson Heritage Brown POTY 4AB No. 45/500 military mount with a silver cap and a tapered black vulcanite AB stem. This is No. 515 with twice the rum of the Basil Rathbone blend. Finished work, fed Sleepy Suzy and Molly Danger, then went outside to feed Daisy the Feral Princess and Tomato the Brave. May have one more smoke if I don't finish a few things I want to do.
