A very busy, arduous day of chores and projects. Finally able to sit down for a wonderful smoke. Altinay Rusticated Dublin Meer with ‘21 C&D Pegasus and a cold local HAZY PALE ALE.

I’m excited to try the first of the four pipes I recently got from China. The four of them cost $10.78 total, including shipping—that’s a whopping $2.695 per pipe. The brand name is my favourite in I don’t know how long. I bought them for the name alone, which I find incredibly amusing.
Going to have Carter Hall in a Pedestrian Corn Cob with straight, pebble finish, filtered, plastic amber stem. I opted not to use the paper filter, and instead inserted a Savinelli 6mm adapter.
Special thanks to @mikethompson for turning me onto this brand.

A connoisseur's choice, to be sure. You are clearly a gentleman of intellect and breeding.
Are these the official “roof top tested” cobs?
Actually, yes. I do think its time to take it down too.Are these the official “roof top tested” cobs?
Half way through this bowl of Peretti Royal in a black sandblasted medium bend 2013 Mark Tinsky Coral 5 cherrywood with a smooth dark brown shank and bottom with a tapered black briar accented acrylic stem. Got those pipes cleaned, my hands cleaned, and my mind needs a dish rag. 
H&H Darbyshire in a smooth Sav Qandale.
Red Rapparee in a Falcon while watching the leaves fall. High winds are predicted this week, so they’ll probably all be down by Monday.
Enjoying a bowl of Rattrays Bagpipers Dream in a Nording Compass MacArthur. With water, plain Jane. 
Gambler Regular in a Crown Jewels billiard, just because.... Today I came across several bags of various cheap pipe tobaccos in a convenience store and thought I needed to give one a try. The Gambler Regular was the only one I vaguely recognized so I bought a 6oz bag. Nothing special, but not terrible either, decent for the money. If this was given to me as my first pipe tobacco I certainly would have kept at it.
2022 LJ Peretti Thanksgiving Day in a Peterson 2020 St Patrick's Day 999.
MB Virginia Flake from a just opened 1lb box, in my Viprati Sabbiata. Oh this is so nice! A few months ago I finished my MB VF and wondered if I was going to bother to get more. When I heard MB was selling their business, I thought again, and decided after another bit to go ahead and get a pound. Glad I did!
Wilke 515 Double Shot in a Nording. Spent most of the day splitting logs down to sizes that will fit the WEN log splitter I ordered.
After a wonderful dinner of seared kale Cesar salad and pasta with “homegrown” tomato sauce, my wife and I retired to the fire pit to relax and watch the sun set.

I left out this morning and forgot my bowl full of Sir John's Flake Virginia in the Altinok. Thankfully, I had a tin in the car that had been there at least 6 months. I drug a cob out of the golf bag. I was in business.
Smoked another bowl of Sir John's Flake Virginia in a Cob on the way home.
