More badminton today with my buddy, and my wife (I broke off several times to kick a hackeysack around)
Enjoyed a cob full of 08 nightcap and later a cigar, Fratello Bianco III. The hackeysack looks like a crazy cigar cherry lol. It was good, first cigar in two or three months. I quite like Fratello cigars, but there’s no offering of theirs that seems to break their own mold, if you will. I think my favorite Fratello is the Navetta Atlantis, it tends to be a one or two hour smoke for me. The Bianca III was a slightly lighter cigar than the Navetta, which was appreciated since I was divin’ for shuttlecocks at the time.
Next up, choosing a pipe and tobacco to take for the ride home from dinner at Old Mexican Inn, Corsicana’s premier legacy Tex Mex joint. No lat or heavy perique because the wife will make me walk home, thinking maybe an aged Virginia…

Dude I love VNE, east Texas songbird right there. I always thought his voice had suggestions of Willie Nelson.
Happy birthday. In my house we do Birthday Month. So enjoy them smokes.
It has turned into a beautiful calm sunny afternoon, just in time for some From Beyond, in a circa 1940 Hecht Optime billiard with orific bit, a Long Island iced tea, and a book.
Hey, happy early birthday!!
Yep i to am a big fan. People say there is no good country/ameriacana music , just aren’t looking in the right places.

Yeah that is just straight up untrue! There’s so much good country right now.
Well, November finally arrived. Has been cloudy all day and rain coming in now. Got a good ride in this morning on Titus and then I blew some leaves around. Probably a waste of effort....... Had a cigar while I rode but this is my first pipe of the month.
I selected some Low Country in a Briarworks C52 with some sparkling water. One of our cats, who thinks he's one of the dogs, wanted to say hello to @JimInks . Jim, Dino says hello to Tomato the Brave.

Dino has such a sarcastic look on his face
“Look at this guy, smoking leaves and drinking out of a can! Not a sophisticate, such as I!”

Hearth & Home AJ’s VaPer (sample from MavErik!) in a MM Icelandic cob. 
Home mix of Capstan Blue Flake and 4th Gen 1989 a 1910's Delacour Bros (DBL) bulldog. Listening to the Michigan game in the garage. With Busch Light and vodka.
