Picked up a new Grabow Riviera today and I can confidently say that it's the best $35 pipe I've smoked all day.
Did a second set of walking reps, and smoked a bowl of year 2015 D&R A.B. Rimboche in an undated slight bend, smooth flame grain Wessex Standard egg with a brown accent on the black vulcanite saddle stem. Tomato the Brave and Abner the Eager walked part of the way with me. Ice water and bergs is my drink.
What a beautiful day to be out working!! Getting the grill fired up for a porkchop supper, while smoking Match Victorian in this Peterson Arklow 150 bulldog. Looks like a great week of weather ahead too. Enjoy the evening everyone!!
Now smoking Watch City American Cut Plug Mixture in a smooth medium bend terracotta Peterson POY 2023 X160 464/1100 military mount egg with a silver cap and a tapered black vulcanite AB stem.
C&D Winchester in a Savinelli Spinosa 320 KS. So happy I found this blend. Red Virginia and Cavendish. 
Some home-blended VaPerOr from a Sasieni four dot four square 
Peterson Arklow No. 68 and WCC Blue Ridge Special - this is really good and despite the “L” word, haha. Apparently they claim to have made it a “Scottish” type mixture and I’d say it compares favorably to Wilke Hearth of Galway (not saying it is Scottish as such but the closest comparison that comes to mind), which I like, but something about this is sweeter (edit: and now tangy) to my taste buds, so a nice difference and so I’ll enjoy both blends!
MM Country Gentleman in a Kaywoodie Standard Lovat.
Not far from finishing this bowl of year 2014 Orlik Golden Sliced in a smooth brown medium bend Abbott 788 (Sasieni family era) author with a tapered black vulcanite stem.
First smoke (Steamworks) in the new Il Duca D grade "Sax". Now THIS is cross grain.
SPC Plum Pudding BBA in a home made briar billiard
Cobblestone English Plug in an Abe Herbaugh
Smoking 2020 Newminster 400 Superior Navy Flake in this Baraccini Mare Blue - recently had the draft hole corrected by Rich at Briarville ...like everyone else, I had an excellent experience dealing with his business - he made 3 of my 'problem pipes' into first string smokers!
Earlier, Mac Baren Mixture Modern (freakin' love this stuff).
