Original run Rouxgaroux in my MarTelo paneled bent billiard.
Gawith Hoggarth & Co.: Kendal Kentucky in a Clay...
Relaxing after a wonderful salad, chicken legs and sugar snap peas dinner and a big blueberry muffin for dessert. Almost half way through this bowl from a freshly opened tin year 2013 Rotary Navy Cut in a post WW2 Pre-Republic Peterson Dublin straight smooth X155 bulldog with a sterling silver band and a tapered black vulcanite p-lip stem. Haven't smoked this blend in a few years, and it's about time I came back to it! This is the only pipe I've ever smoked it in. Ice water and bergs is my drink. Watching the second part of Dinosaur Apocalypse on Nova.
Btw, Nigel Bruce smoked this same model in two Sherlock Holmes movies. I'm working to get Peterson and Smoking Pipes to bring this pipe back into production. If you like what you see, please e-mail them and tell them you want one.

I’m smoking Samuel Gawith’s brown sugar flake in my new meerschaum here at my little cabin in the Sierras which barely survived the fires from this year. I am considering sprinkling this tobacco all around the perimeter of the cabin to protect it from ever catching on fire.
Enjoyed the last three slices of cinnamon raisin French toast, and am smoking the last of this tin of year 2013 Dunhill Flake in a straight smooth 1960 Dunhill DRA 137 group 4 root briar canted dublin with a tapered black vulcanite stem. Community Coffee, neat, is my drink.
I got a bag of them from Sutliff last Oct. They just weren't cut up yet, and it's not something you'll see on sale.
Last bowl from a tin of CVP in a Rubio.
GO KINGS GO!!Posting this early:
Heading into LA for a friend's parent's 80th birthday celebration this weekend. Bringing my Savinelli Tortuga 614 bent billiard for aromatics, and my SMS claw meer for everything else. Packed for myself (and for sharing, if I should be so lucky to encounter another pipe smoker) about three or four bowls each of:
1) Mac Baren Vanilla Roll Cake
2) Ashton Gold Rush
3) Sutliff Balkan Sobranie Orig. Mix Match
4) Peterson Nightcap
That should take care of my needs quite nicely. Depending on the outcome of Game 7 Kings vs. Oilers, there may also be copious amounts of alcohol paired with the above. ?
No bird report, obviously, but I did see a Lesser goldfinch (first of the year!) this morning. LA birds will probably just be crows and sparrows, maybe a Mourning dove or two if I'm lucky. Frazier Park birds spoil me!
Happy weekend everyone, and happy smokes! ?

TGIF!!!!
After a stressful work week, another injection in my eye, and, just today, 19 vials of blood taken from me by the hematologist I can finally relax.
Relaxing with some McConnell Black Flake in a freestanding cavalier by Negoita and some Thomas Moore port cask finished Bourbon:

An abstemious afternoon after a rather and indulgent lunch yesterday with 3 good mates. Only a glass of water to accompany -
My 1st bowl of McClelland's 1999 Bombay Court
In a cased Durham Prince of Wales with a straight tapered Amber stem with orific bit. Not hallmarked.

HH Pure Virginia (2018) in a Castello Old Antiquari Hawkbill.
LJ Peretti Ampersand Flake in a Wiley. 
Snuck out of bed for some day old reheated black coffee and some Carter Hall in my Punto Oro Gold Sandblast Apple. Mmmm
Dark Plug in a Hilson Vintage Prince.
The 1st bowl in the Durham Prince of Wales was a rather short 30min smoke.
Now for a bowl of Druquer Red Lion
In the new 1925 Cecil straight Bulldog with tapered vulcanite stem by Comoy

A third of a bowl left of year 2018 Solani 633 in a 1954 patent Dunhill 148 Group 3 black shell bulldog made for the France market with a black saddle vulcanite stem.
Davidoff Flake Medallions in a GL (George Leousis) pipe, which was actually the annual pipe of year 2018 for the Greek Pipe Club.
For some reason, I had to reach 54 years of age to read this classical masterpiece, Knut Hamsun's (1859-1952) - "The Hunger".
I knew it was a great book, as all the recommendations and favorite authors of Charles Bukowski (1920-1994).
P.S. But Hank did not win a Nobel prize.
Happy weekend good people!
