First bowl of Cornell & Diehl Warped The Haunting. This would be an excellent crossover blend for a cigar smoker.

Very nice! On my wish list, I have a poorly made replica and would like to own the real thing. I will keep looking..
Keep your eyes on ebay. I got that one unused for less than $50.
ODF in a Qipeng Wei, the finish on this is so great. There is one of his eggs on SPC right now, pretty affordable. I’d buy it if I wasn’t currently pipe poor. 
Enjoying some of last year’s Thanksgiving Day. A year in the jar didn’t hurt this blend one bit.
Have fun. Franklin has lots of interesting Civil War history and some decent mom and pop shopping. Try to hit Pucket’s in Franklin. It’s delicious, a little off the beaten path and you never know who you’ll see there.
Almost half way through this bowl of year 2014 Orlik Golden Sliced in a smooth brown medium bend Abbott 788 (Sasieni family era) author with a tapered black vulcanite stem. Community Coffee, neat, is my drink.
Five Brothers in the Kaywoodie Campus for a quick puff in the cooler weather. Going to have to find a spot when the temp really drops.
Love this! How tall and long is that pipe?
Length- 5 3/8”
Height- 1 3/4”

Bayou Night in a Boswell late tonight. This is an excellent blend that seems to me to be often overlooked. 
Enjoyed a big and tasty golden delicious apple, and am off to work with a bowl of year 2020 D&R Raccoon’s Friend in a pre-1980s straight dark brown Comoy's Sandblast 186 billiard with a tapered black vulcanite stem.
Haven’t posted in awhile. Been busy trying to keep up with the thread. Finally got a chance to relax and catch up with the new Nov thread. Autumn Evening in a Moretti Morta on the new heated deck. Plenty of winter smoking in my future.
I was in Montreal for Halloween, so I didn’t get to light up a Halloween themed pipe, just one of the unfinished Savinelli Series III pipes I took on the road with me. So, I’m catching up a day late on the Day of the Dead with Cornell & Diehl Visions of Celephaïs in a Baraccini Halloween Pipe 2022—“Jack” 320 Author.
While in Montreal, I was very happy to meet up with forum member, @sparker69 on Monday at Blatter & Blatter. I hope it won’t be the last. With our mutual passion for cigars, pipes, craft beer, and whiskies, there’s much to be shared.
He brought a couple of wonderful Cuban cigars for me. We smoked some tasty Bolivars while we walked around Downtown Montreal.
I might end up saving this Partagas 898 for my birthday or warmer weather. I think the dampness and cold affected the burn of the Bolivar, which required several relights—usually with cigars, it’s one light and done.
The grandkids carving pumpkins with their parents:
Lo, and behold—a very small vampire!
And another shot of Wasabi in his costume, just because.
