Gatlin-Burlier's Mountain Mall Mix in a Country Gent.
(I had forgotten what a great aromatic this is.)

Home after a very fun and productive CORPS show. I didn't get to see all the fellow internet pipe smokers, but I did get to meet some of them. Just smoked Edward G. Robinson's Pipe Blend in a 2014 Basil Meadows smooth slight bend squashed tomato with an aluminum band and a black pearl acrylic stem.
So, I got lots of samples from various vendors to review. Spent a lot of time talking with Sutliff's blender, Carl McCallister, MacBaren's Per Jensen, and Russ Ouellette. Furious completely surprised me with a big quart size jar of 1960s EGR. That would have been cool enough, but thanks to Furious, I got one of my long standing PAD wants: a Peterson Pre-Republic in the shape and style that I wanted. I debated all weekend as to what to smoke in it, and until I make up my mind, I'm starting off with FVF in a post WW2 Pre-Republic Peterson straight smooth Bulldog with a sterling silver band. Many grateful thanks to you, Furious, for the pre-Republic I have wanted for so long!
