Chenet’s cake in a nice big Jess Chonowitsch billiard. I bought this estate because I love it esthetically, but also, I wanted a piece of Danish pipe history. To a certain extent, I paid for the name without knowing if it was worth it. The fact of the matter is it has turned into one of my best smokers, if not the best. So, I’ll be trying to buy more from him, not just because of the name, but because they live up to the name.

Dinner was a wonderful salad, striped bass and snow peas dinner with strawberries for dessert. I've a third of a bowl left of Seattle Pipe Club Give Me Liberty in a straight smooth medium brown pre-1920 straight Marechal Ruchon & Cie. Royale apple with a sterling silver band and a tapered black vulcanite stem. Less than an hour ago, I learned that one of my best friends, and most knowledgeable pipe smokers, David Cuneo, a.k.a. Dmcmtk, has passed away from natural causes. I'm working on an obituary that I never thought that I would have to write.

Off to work with a bowl of year 2020 D&R Penhooker Silver in a straight smooth brown undated pre-Republic Peterson Shamrock 263 Canadian with a nickel band and a tapered black p-lip stem. All the ferals just showed up, so m'lady's taking care of them.

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!

Enjoyed a tasty golden delicious apple, and have passed the quarter mark of this bowl of Wilke Lizzie Blood Virginia in a straight black with a burgundy undertone sandblasted early 1960s Lane era Charatan 420 billiard with a tapered black vulcanite stem. Finished work for the day.
