I just finished a late lunch. Time for some Directors Cut in a Damiano Rovera.

Stanwell Melange in a corn cob pipe. Got 2 new books (of poetry) yesterday. I have to confess that my BAD is greater than my PAD and far far more worst than my TAD. Very small (tiny) possibility that I'll be able to read all the unread books before... well, before we'll see each other again in antoher/better place where perhaps our *ADs will be cured...
Be well good people!

Completely understand that. I too have far more books than tobacco or pipes. Have had to cut back on all my 'AD acquisitions. Didn't say stopped, just slowed way down.

On the road this morning sipping on a bowl of HOTW and listening to episode 80 of the podcast.

Some Cherokee in a Moonshine Pot still, coffee. I have tickets to Joe Bonamassa tonight, find a nice park bench and enjoy some preconcert pipes and coffee.

Double Down from 2020, more coffee.

I love that match box and those long matches. Also, I have that same pipe knife but with buffalo horn.

Thanks -- the box was some random wooden box I found at a thrift shop years ago and repurposed (a little white glue and a cut-out piece of strike strip worked wonderfully). The matches are Swedish "Three Stars Safety Matches" I was able to purchase on Amazon.

Having G.L. Pease Haddo’s Delight in a Michael Parks SB Rhodesian 499, Pipe #1316, Grade IV (from early 2018), with a black, red, and grey swirl ebonite stem—a Comoy’s 499 and GBD 9252 were referenced for the shape (work-in-progress photo, courtesy of Michael Parks, who keeps impeccable records of the pipes he has made—I did not commission this pipe; I’m only the current caretaker).

Sunny late autumn morning in the Purcells with a coffee and a bowl of BF in 1961 59 tanshell billiard.

I was gifted this interesting figural pipe a few years ago along with the meer lined Kaywoodie Canadian I post from time to time. Wasn’t sure what I was going to do with this one but decided today that it will be for Holiday aromatics so I’m breaking it in with Five Brothers. Not sure of the manufacturer as there’s seemingly no makers marks except on the band that says “Pure Silver”. Having lemon water, neat, on the side.

What a consistent, practical pipe with a nice blast. Chenet’s cake in a Kurt Balleby

Shepherds Pie in a cob. 8" snow at my house in last 36 hours. But the glorious New Mexico sun is finally out today. Going out and dig my paths and truck out before it all freezes up into solid ice tonight. Stay safe and warm folks.
