[JimInks]

Starting off my smoking day with McClelland Tudor Castle Arcade in a 1986 three quarter bend Bacchus face CAO meer with a tortoise shell stem, which I'm a quarter way through enjoying. A bottle of Boylan's Root Beer made with pure cane sugar is my drink. Watching From Russia With Love.

1792 Flake in a bent MM Mark Twain while mowing the lawn. The taste of this and the smell of freshly cut grass are terribly pleasant.

Yard's done, and still have the 1792 burning. The Mark Twain's smoke longer than one would think!

I sat in the yard, enjoying the breeze and the view. I decided to try the Fusilier's Ration that Russ invented for us. WOW, great stuff Russ! Now to find a bunch of it. I love it.

This was my first crumble cake tobacco, took a bit to figure out what to do with it. I got it rubbed out and packed and commenced to enjoy it in a virgin MM cob. Nice combo.

I also took the time to relax and enjoy a bit of wood carving again. I worked some on the pipe holder, just for practice.
Again, nice work Russ!

Now, where can I find some Bengal Slices?
