Enjoyed a tasty lunch, and am just passing the quarter mark on this bowl of KBV Lord Crumbley’s beta test in a 2015 Basil Meadows black sandblasted billiard with an aluminum band and a pearl red acrylic tapered stem.

McConnell Red Virginia in a Briarworks/reddit POTY 2017
No pipe today. I'm smoking too much forest fire to add to the fumar. Cough, hack! Another red flag windy day. I can't imagine how disheartening this weather must be for all the firefighters. Not to mention the evacuated homeowners who don't know if they even have a home anymore. Hope all you good folks on this forum have a great day. Be safe.
Last night it was a home mix of Sir Walter Raleigh regular, D&R Two-Timer, and PS black Cavendish, in a once-unfinished Savinelli bent Dublin (a 920 I think, though it isn't stamped). Like many home-mixes, it was better than many standard blends. The pipe has colored nicely over the years, darkened though not yet shiny. Others of mine have gotten a real polish without wax or any polish, though lots of hand buffing.
Carol, I wish you the best with that wild fire on a red flag windy day. The ferocity of those is awe inspiring. If in doubt, move on out.

Thank you. Oh, I will. The fires so far are not near me. Just the thick smoke. But I have my vehicle packed and ready to run if that changes. btw, you might chuckle to hear that my preps include a box with jars of favorite tobaccos and 2 spare pipes. Funny, I know. But I know I'll be glad if anything happens. How does the saying go- It's better to have it and not need it, than need it and not have it.
Enjoyed a bowl of Edward G. Robinson this morning and a nice bowl of Pegasus this afternoon.
Damn uncontrolled fire. I'm sorry to hear that my dear Carol. Hopefully it will end soon, and they will all be well...........
Swam some laps,now having a bowl of Carter Hall in a Sav. Blue Alligator Poker on a gray day,listening to Art Tatum.
Davidoff Flake Medallions in a Castello Old Antiquari Bulldog.
A quarter of the way through this bowl of KBV Acadian Flek beta test in a 2003 smooth three quarter bend Rinaldo Fiammata Odissea Titania 02 Silver Line 3 Straight Grain egg with a black acrylic tapered stem. The Braves-Mets game starts after the top of the hour. They're playing a double header today. I'll put the game on pause when I do my second set of walking reps so I won't miss anything. Time to brew some Gold Star Kona Extra Fancy coffee.

Thank John. NM currently has several big fires, charring thousands of acres of beautiful forests, and hundreds of human homes. I don't want to think of all the birds and animals that are dying. Breaks my heart. I salute the firefighters who are trying so hard to control these raging blazes.

GLP Barbary Coast, with a cube-cut burley base, Perique, and brandy flavoring, in smooth Ropp bent poker/sitter Etudedant. As my tin of this blend reaches empty, a generous Forums member is sending me a tin of the blend, saying he's off Perique blends these days. Thank you for that.
