Enjoying some PS Luxury Navy Flake in my favorite tree trunk of a Nording Signature Freehand.
Another week is in the books. It’s time to get the weekend started with St. James Flake in a MM Emerald and a pour of Maker’s Mark Cask Strength. I wish everyone a safe and enjoyable holiday weekend. Cheers!
WCC Double Barrel in a Savinelli 606ks St. Nicholas. I'll light this puppy off as soon as the pressure canner is set. 24 quart jars of chilli this go round.
About a third of a bowl left of Wilke No. 111 in a smooth medium bend 1938-1948 Pre-Republic Peterson Shamrock Killarney 9BC with a nickel band and a black vulcanite p-lip stem. Been watching an interesting well done documentary on James Stewart and Robert Mitchum.
Dark Bird's Eye in a CAO/Bekler claw meerschaum.
Cringle Flake 2020 in a BriarWorks 
Match Revelation/PC, in a Jerry Perry slightly bent poker/sitter carved of Mountain Laurel, a wood used in the U.S. to substitute for briar during WWII when briar was not available. Jerry, who is in Colfax, N.C., out toward the mountains, does pipe repair online but only sells his work at the N.C. State Fair in October and at the TAPS pipe show in April when it is held. He also works in briar, maple, and occasional rare woods. I have a cocobolo pocket pipe, a freehand, by him. Revelation was said to be one of Albert Einstein's favorite blends. Mountain Laurel has a somewhat marbled grain, more muted than briar, but pleasing.
Did a set of walks in the heat and humidity, and smoked a bowl of year 2016 Orlik Golden Sliced in a smooth brown medium bend Abbott 788 (Sasieni family era) author with a tapered black vulcanite stem. Have enough left for another bowl. Ice water and bergs is my drink.
Now smoking 2021 Watch City Simply Orange Virginia in a black sandblast medium bend 2021 Peterson POTY 4AB No. 182/500 military mount with a silver cap and a tapered black vulcanite AB stem.
Followed the up the SPC Plum Pudding with SPC Plum Pudding Special Reserve Flake to compare the two, both in MM
Sweet vinegar goodness. Sutliff Crumble Cake - red VA from a Jason Patrick.
Very busy chores day. Finally time to sit down and relax. Got the Altinay Rusticated Dublin Meer packed with Boswell Titus Eng. blend. Some home brew Dunkle Weisse in the side-car.
I’m starting to get some color on this Meer.
