Kendal Flake in a GBD Meer that was was a gift from @ashdigger

I’m drinking a cherry blossom hard seltzer because.. I don’t know -is there really an appropriate drink to accompany Kendal Flake?

 

[Nevaditude]

Yeah, ... I can try & make that happen

Big ole bowl of some 2008 St James Flake in a Jim DeSchaine.

 

[Sobrbiker]

Nothing!
They’re all boxed up to move.
Just kidding, I’ve got a cob and a Lee with a few bowls worth of 4-5 blends within reach, just new to busy to have a smoke today.
Yesterday’s last smoke was 17ft in the air on a ladder having a cob of John Marr while installing lights at the new spread (no pic).

Beautiful day striking a stage, now I'm on the balcony with a Briarworks bent apple full of MacBaren HH Burley Flake.

Back to work in the morning so I went with one of my favorites for my last smoke until Monday. Night Train in a Vauen poker.

I frequently see the Peterson pipe chart showingthe various sizes. A real collection would be amazing.

In Numerical Order from L-R shapes a: Peterson 301standard, a 2s Deluxe Natural=302, a 303 Spigot, an Ebony 304 Standard & my 11FB Deluxe= 306 shape. I'll get a full group in in a few weeks, but this is what I have smoked last couple of days during my "Peterson System Shape Numerical Smoke-Off."


Below are side view & a top down~
Front to back Peterson shapes 303, 304, 301, 306, 302.

Above is a birds-eye view: from top tp bottom~ Peterson Shapes 302, 306, 301, 304, 303.
Long time from boyhood fan of Tin-tin & Snowy, were on desk, are reason I now have a Wire Fox Terrier!
Will post pic of full Peterson set when 305 arrives. be well...

Good evening! Had a good hike at a local arboretum this afternoon and ate at Buddy's BBQ for lunch. Now smoking Carter Hall in a Dr. Grabow rusticated billiard and finishing off a mug of JFG coffee.

Buddy's and JFG a great reminder of my second home.

After dinner smoke. Bald Headed Teacher in this Jirsa. Cameron’s Toasted Southern Pecan coffee. This Jirsa is a beautiful pipe and a great smoker!

Relaxing after a wonderful salad, chicken legs and snow peas dinner with strawberries for dessert. I'm close to finishing this bowl of year 2016 Newminister 400 Superior Navy Flake in a straight smooth brown year 1948 Parker Super Bruyere patent 23 88/F bulldog with a tapered black vulcanite stem. These old estate stems are getting a serious cleaning. Never understood why some smokers allow them to gunk up.

Closing in on the last third of this bowl of year 2018 Solani 633 in a straight 1954 patent Dunhill 148 Group 3 black shell bulldog made for the France market with a black saddle vulcanite stem.

Yes! Watercolor is a phenomenal medium!! I’ve been painting with it for almost a decade and it still surprises me!

Onto a second bowl of 2008 St James Flake - the last of my 2008 stash. Smoking from a Barker sandblast
