C&D Exclusive in the Short Army.
The mornings are in the fifties these days, but we’re still expecting to live in the nineties through the rest of the month.

I’ll give it a try and see how it does.@PaulRVA I also forgot to mention with the Nightcap try this it has worked great for me, when you open a tin, pull apart and get the tin compression from the tobacco, place in a mason jar and seal, give it about week and a turn the jar and flip it, Do this each week for 2 more weeks and on week 4 open it up be ready for the tin note and The different tobacco notes when smoking, when I get my smoking jar down I have one already in this process
Nightcap historically for me gets popped and lid placed back on and dipped into periodically when the mood hits.
PS Nougat in my travel pipe, a Morgan Bones. At the farm on a beautiful beauty of a fall day. So nice.
Smoking Autumn Evening in a cob. Cleaning out the ol' car hold. Off topic for this thread, but we live in the countryside, heavily wooded, no internet, no humanity. We often entertain wild turkeys, among many wonderous critters, but today we had a stray cat who was nibbling at the compost. As he ate, 20 or so male turkeys munched seed under our bird feeders, along with a juvenile skunk who comes everyday, day or night, and eats with the turkeys. While this feast was going on we watched a coyote, which are numerous here, creep up on the stray tabby. The tabby heard him and took off across the yard, passed the turkeys and skunk. The dirty, rotton, just trying to survive yote chased and ran into a wall of male turkeys who puffed up their tails, their feathers and, essentially, built a feather wall between the coyote and the tabby. The birds encroached and the dog ran back to the woods. The cat disappeared, the turkeys continued eating, and the skunk had no clue anything had happened... he likes the peanuts. I love these miraculous creatures, in this unbelievable world. What a treat.
I was glad I was able to snag it before someone else did. It reminded me of my Altinok Squat Rhodesian, but on steroids. I’m going to have to keep an eye out for other Pipes Depot offerings. An added bonus for me is minimal waiting time in terms of delivery, as they’re based in Pennsylvania.
That's great. I'm in CT, so I got mine in a couple days. The pipe I bought on eBay had a "make an offer" button and I figured I'd throw in a low bid so they could counter and they took it!
Mac Baren’s Scottish Mixture in Nording Hold’em spigot. This year we have been blessed with many warm days in the Southern Ontario during the fall season.
Not far from finishing this bowl of year 2019 C&D Yorktown in a smooth medium bend 2021 Peterson POTY Terracotta 4AB No.108/500 military mount with a silver cap and a tapered black vulcanite AB stem.
Half way through this bowl of Watch City Strange Magic in a 1960s Austrian meerschaum bent apple with a tapered yellow stem. Ice water and bergs is my drink.
Star of the east flake in a hawkbill sea rock.
Match Walnut in a Kaywoodie pot. A Belgian Dubbel is my poison.
Old Joe Krantz Red Label in a Tsuge Ikebana BC acorn.
Passing the quarter mark of this bowl of 2017 Watch City Deluxe Crumb Cut in a 2016 Peretti's M.T. Natural made in Holland straight smooth brown Algerian briar billiard with a tapered black acrylic stem. I mostly have my WC Strange Magic review written, but am stuck on a point or two. I'll smoke another bowl later. Never got to clean pipes due to chatting with an old friend, so I'll do that now.
