Good Morning Gentlemen! I have been up since 4.30 AM tidying up a few unfinished tasks. Just finished a bowl of S&G Virginia Plug in one of my favorite beater meerschaum pipes. You know the shape and age so there is no reason to elaborate. Later this morning post 12'ish I will be joining my good friend Mark and many new friends in Tampa for the kick off of Winter 2021 Florida Pipe Club at Edwards Pipe & Tobacco followed by an early dinner at my favorite Restaurant Columbia in Ybor City.

I've got about 6 or 7 bowls remaining in a mix of: D&R TwoTimer, Sutliff J-4, Sutliff aged red VA, Sutliff Dark Stoved VA, and Sutliff blending perique which I'm smoking now in one of two pipes my only son has gifted me, a Yello-Bole Lovat. I sanded the varnish off of it a few yrs back. The grain isn't pretty, but the overall look is easier to my eye and it feels much nicer in hand. No fills!
