First go at Carter Hall. Simple and easy in a good way. To you CH lovers, how long will it keep in the plastic tub?

Love that pipe!

I lived in Olympia for a few years and I’ll say that the nature and beauty of the PNW is next to impossible to beat. Astoria and the surrounding area were my favorite places to visit and if I won the big lotto I’d buy a condo there. The summers, as brief as they are, were some of the best I’ve ever experienced and if there a regret of leaving it’s all of these things.

However, with most of the population in the Puget Sound area, as well as down in Portland, being mostly from other places who moved because of whatever reason I found the region to be cold and artificial. The friends I did make were born in the area with families who lived there forever, or had moved out that way decades ago. I love living in and exploring cities but Seattle and Portland just seemed uninteresting and as left leaning in my politics I am, how those regions are governed is a clown show.

I do have visiting central and eastern Washington and Oregon on my bucket list.

Yeah I could never live in Portland, Seattle, or Olympia. Not enough sunshine and wacky politics. Astoria gets like 122-130 days of sunshine a year I think? We get around 200 down here in southern Oregon.

Spending my Friday nursing our LiuLiu while she recovers from enucleation surgery last night.
Was able to sneak in a short bowl of Dark BirdsEye in the Kaywoodie Pup while tossing the horses some hay…View attachment 295946View attachment 295945

Poor pup! How is she doing?

The Dark Birdseye, Kaywoodie Pup, and enucleation surgery seems like a perversely poetic combo given the circumstances.

How's the Paul Olsen B93?
I've had the 111 - tremendous flavor but could be bitey.

Walked to the north end of my property to get some pics for @LeafErikson of the sand plum bushes in bloom. Still smoking SPC MRSR in the Pete! About to get some much needed rain.

Watch City American Cut Plug Mixture in a 2022 Savinelli St. Nicholas 673ks. My first bowl of this blend. Off to a great start.

Love that pipe!

And so do I. It is still very much like new after 99 years and it should stay like that. But I can't resist to use it once in a while...

About a quarter of a bowl left of pre-2014 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. Watching the end of the Quiet Man, one of my favorite movies.
