Spent several hours weed eating and using a swing blade to clean up some sections of pasture fence line.
I’m ready for a much needed break. MM Diamond cob with another C&D mixture- equal parts of:
2017 Yorktown, Bright Va, Izmir and Blk Cav.
A cold beer from a local and oldest brewery. An imperial IPA.

Enjoyed a tasty lunch, did a second set of walking reps under cloudy, misty skies, and have a quarter of a bowl left of 2023 STG Escudo in a 1980s White Pipe straight lattice apple meerschaum with an acrylic yellow cream colored saddle stem. Deciding on how I want the phrase the changes in the new Escudo for my review update. Going to do a total rewrite for the earlier versions, too.

Half way through this bowl of 2023 STG Escudo in a slight bend rusticated 1979 Savinelli Estella 310 poker with a brown pearl acrylic saddle stem. Thought I'd see if I noticed anything different in a briar that used to be dedicated to Escudo. I didn't. I totally rewrote my previous review to compare/contrast the different versions I have smoked, and added an update for what I am smoking now at TR.

Now smoking a bowl from a freshly opened tin of 1980s Von Eicken’s Dark Flake Navy Cut in a 1980s White Pipe straight, smooth octagonal paneled billiard meerschaum with an acrylic yellow cream colored saddle stem. Working on a review of this blend. Ice water and bergs is my drink.
