Some Watch City 4-Q in a cob, listening to the playoffs with a vodka cranberry, way to end the day
5 year old H&H Black House in my Ropp Stout Pot.
Relaxing after a wonderful salad, rainbow trout and snow peas dinner with a small bowl of spaghetti on the side. Dessert was strawberries. I'm half way through this bowl of year 2022 Astley’s No. 109 Medium Flake in a straight black 1963 Dunhill LBS Shell 4S billiard with a tapered black vulcanite stem. Ice water and bergs is my drink. I DVR'd the Phillies-Padres game and am in the top of the first watching the Padres score four runs so far. Glad I have no idea what has gone on since, and if you do know, please don't tell me or it'll spoil the game for me.
Low Country Atalaya in my SHP panel shanked Canadian.
We’re having Seattle Pipe Club Plum Pudding Special Reserve. Altinok Meerschaum Rhodesian again.
Southern Tier Nu Haze IPA.

Half way through this bowl of year 2018 Sutliff Dunhill Elizabethan Match in a 1982 smooth straight Dunhill Root Briar 31051 dublin with a tapered black vulcanite stem. Finally caught up with the ball game, which is quite a good one no matter who you want to win if you like a lot of hitting.
Just opened a tin of Old Gowrie purchased May 2020. Smoking this for the first time, and probably the only tin in my cellar, though I have a lot of Hal O’ The Wynd cellared.
First impression is that this is the sweet spot I seek when I smoke Virginia. If I continue to like this as much as the first impression, I will go deep
The pipe is an Altinay translucent meerschaum billiard

Yesterday afternoon was spent catching with a few close friends (former classmates) visiting from Malaysia to help celebrate my dad's 100th Birthday and mine.
Just cold water to drink, after Friday night's excesses
My first smoke of the weekend.
Samuel Gawith's Golden Glow
In a cased 1922 Loewe's bent billiard, tapered stem with orific bit.

Year 2013 Capstan Yellow in a cob. Spending a couple days at Little St. Simons Island for our 15 year Anniversary. 
Smoking a blend I was sure I would dislike - Samuel Gawith's Commonweal Full Strength Mixture. Using a deep bend Blatter & Blatter pipe.
It turns out it was one of the best smokes I have had. Zero tongue bite and fantastic taste. Go figure.

Enjoyed a tasty golden delicious apple, and am off to the studio with a bowl of C&D Derringer in a straight smooth brown 1920s (Comoy’s) Lions Head 399 Canadian with a tapered black vulcanite stem. Community Coffee, neat, is my drink. Listening to the ball game as I work.
A second bowl - Samuel Gawith's Full Virginia Flake
In a 1913 Loewe's straight billiard, tapered stem with orific bit
The stem is a beautifully made replacement by Mike Billington of Blakemar Pipes
This was a very fortuitous find.
The previously unsmoked cased bent billiard was missing its companion piece.
This fits the slot so perfectly, it seems tailor-made for the case.

Finishing up our vertical tasting of the four versions of Seattle Pipe Club Plum Pudding with the Special Reserve Flake and a Southern Tier Warlock Pumpkin Yam Stout. Altinok Meerschaum Rhodesian again.

About a third of the way through this bowl of C&D Wintertime Reserve 2021 Snow Day in a straight smooth dark brown late 1940s-early 50s Reiss Premier (Kaywoodie) Chester 67 Canadian with a tapered black vulcanite stem.
OzPiper, Happy Birthday to you and your dad!
