I had a predawn smoke of G.L Pease Sixpence this morning. I really enjoy waking up early to enjoy a pipe. This morning it was quiet and still, just the sound of crickets, and a gentle wind in the trees. The fireflies were putting on a show, though the stars were fairly dim. On a practical note, as a new smoker, the dark and quiet of this hour has really helped me learn to refine my technique. I find it easier to concentrate and I can observe the ember in my bowl easily. It has helped me to understand and value a well lit bowl.
Starting off my smoking day with a bowl of early 2000s 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. Ice water and bergs is my drink.
That is one cool looking pipe
My new, now oldest Ashton, from the markings, it’s a 1986 Bill Taylor era Group 5ish? XX. smoking great for me today with some Bayou Morning Flake
Carter Hall in my new-to-me Dr. Grabow Hillcrest.
Thanks! Sea rocks are great, especially big ones like this. They are also quite available new or used if you are so inclined!
Did a set of walking reps on this sunny, breezy day, and am close to 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 tapered black vulcanite stem. Watching the Reds-Cardinals game.
Interesting shape…….like a melted gonad. (No offence! Lol)
I'm a new member. Currently smoking "THE MALLARD" no perique.
Welcome, I like the perique version, never had the straight Va but I’d imagine it’s excellent.

2019 Comoy’s Cask #4 in a Sasieni Trafalgar 71S.
This was from a lot purchase, and the stem that came with it was a substitute that fit poorly. It was held in place by duct tape…
I fitted a tapered stem blank to it to make it smokable again…

Enjoyed a few slices of cinnamon raisin French toast, a Jethro Bodine size bowl of Raisin Bran, and a golden delicious apple lunch. I've just over a quarter of a bowl left of year 2020 Watch City Rouxgaroux in a smooth medium bend 2021 Peterson POTY Natural 4AB No. 6/500 military mount with a silver cap and a tapered black vulcanite AB stem. Lavazza Classico, neat, is my drink.
