Marlin Flake from 2008 in the Algerian briar Blatter & Blatter pipe.
6 year old GLP Telegraph Hill in a Comoys apple shape.
Low Country Edisto from May 2022 in an Altinay translucent meerschaum billiard
Relaxing after a wonderful salad, orange roughy and green beans dinner with strawberries for dessert. I've passed the quarter mark of this bowl of year 2013 Capstan Blue Flake in a straight 1924 Dunhill’s “Shell Briar” patent pot 7 with a tapered black vulcanite stem. Ice water and bergs is my drink. Watching the Braves-Cubs game.
For dessert, Mac Baren Dark Twist in my AKB calabash
Sutliff match Victorian in a Peterson Dracula 80s. First time smoking the match.
Great blend/pipe combination. Never seen a Sav autograph in a blasted Volcano
pictures kind sir
Wessex Red Virginia in a new Ian Fisher sandblast 
Presbyterian Ordained in a Dunhill Shell 33031
Planted some perennials with the Warlord after dinner. Smoking some SV Peach in a Nording and listening to Crosby Stills and Nash.
MacBaren Burley London Blend in a Georg Jensen bent brandy
Murray's Three Year Matured Virginia at work.
50/50 Sir Walter Raleigh/ Wilke 515 single-shot in a Lorenzo squat something or other, is that a tomato? I don’t know. I do know it’s a great smoker. 
Sutliff R-18 in a Peterson Donegal Rocky 69.
McC 40th in my Castello slightly bent egg.
Sutliff Crème Brûlée spiked with shredded whole leaf wild Rustica (50:50) in a Falcon with Meerschaum Bowl
Driving kids around today and all I could smell was cut grass. For some reason it gave me an urge for a pure Virginia. So I went for my favourite, Union Square. Not exactly grassy, hay forward blend, but who cares. If I’m stuck on a desert island with 10 crates of tobacco and 25 pipes (not sure exactly how this scenario would present itself, but I’m thinking big here!) GLP Union Square would definately be one of those crates. As would my favourite pipe, a mid century Sand-Meer Peterson. 
Had Mac Baren Vanilla Cream (running low...going to try the flake next) in a blasted Barling egg while finishing up more ranch chores. Great smoke, 9.2/10. It has been some time since I smoked this deep-chambered beast--I should use it more often. An early World No Tobacco Day resolution perhaps? 
Bird report: California quail, California scrub-jay, Steller's jay, Mountain chickadee, Dark-eyed junco, House finch, White-breasted nuthatch, Common raven, Red-tailed hawk, Cooper's hawk, Northern flicker, Mourning dove, and California towhee.
Listening to soon-to-be birthday boy Morrissey and eagerly awaiting an eggplant parmesan dinner. Hope everyone is slogging their way through this week; is it going by extra slow or is it just me?

Damn. That’s a great looking pipe! Where did you get it? The first pipe I ever bought was a Blatter and I love it to this day.
