Good afternoon. After twelve hours of work, and a light dinner. I start smoking with Capstan Blue, in a Charles Cobbler pipe. Blessed smoke, tastes like glory. 
Wife had to go to an event, I'm home alone with the dogs on the first real spring weather Sunday we have had!
In support of @Streeper541 (and a nod to @scloyd on the pipe as well) enjoying my first bowl in The Pipe Nook Peterson Phoenix 221 - been thinking of dogs in my life a lot this week, particularly our 15 year old campaigner who is lying beside me, the two great dogs at different parts in my life I've lost and the squirrel of a soon to be 5 setter that is looking at me and planning mischief to let loose on the missus when she gets back, lol.
All thoughts are still with Chris and all those who have had the privilege of sharing life with good dogs. So also a pic of the goofball his first day home July of '17, 'cause puppy pics warm the heart. As the saying and a pretty good book go, "The Lord God Made Them All."
Happy Sunday!

Samuel Gawith: 1792 Flake in a Meer...
PP in Peterson Ashford 606 fishtail. Still not my favorite blend. Thank gods I'm almost done with the tin.
Now smoking an housemade English blend [070 Flake Cut by Gerd Jansen + Robert McConnell Pure Latakia + PW & Wilke Yenidje] in a black billiard by CAMINETTO, listening Kind of Blue CD
Did set of walking reps on this very warm, sunny day, and am not far from finishing this 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.
Queen Anne's Revenge in a Dr. Grabow Royal Duke #19 Medium Prince. Sitting in my smoking spot listening to the sounds of summer starting up.
@GabrielSTB Hope you're feeling better!
I've smoked a few packets of Captain Black Cherry in my clay pipes; I was introduced to it when a re-enactor I met gave me some. Never heard of it before.
@condorlover1 calls it Captain Crap
Clan in a clay.
Got 6 bags of rubbish today!

Holy God what a beautiful view................???
SG St. James Flake in a Blatter Select Rhodesian with Ty.Phoo black tea, watching 2022 IPL cricket.
Enjoyed a tasty lunch, and am almost a third of the way through this bowl of Granger in a straight smooth medium brown post-1940s Comoy’s Tradition 110B billiard with a tapered black vulcanite stem.
Was almost through the earlier bowl when I posted - I like the Sweet Killarney. I had bits of Wilke No. 515 and some Wilke Butterscotch Cavendish still sitting in the little bowls on the counter from earlier in the week, so well dried (!) and between them there was enough for a bowl in my Peterson Sherlock Holmes Rathbone. It is the first pipe I ever smoked. Not a bad combination of "scraps"!
Getting ready to dive into the second book in the Creasy series by A.J. Quinnell - "The Perfect Kill".
It's still a great Sunday!

That stem is going to give me nightmares. By morning I hope to be dreaming of micro-mesh.
@PaulTheScandinavian I've smoked some Old Dark Fired in my clay pipes; I think it's a bit strong to go to bed on!
