Heading out to walk the trails for a little. Loaded some WCC 558 Flake in a Yorgos Mitakidis lovat to enjoy with a cup of Nicaraguan light roast from a friend. 
Just finished smoking early 2000s Edward G. Robinson's Pipe Blend in a 2014 Basil Meadows smooth slight bend squashed tomato with an aluminum band and a black pearl acrylic stem in the military mount style.
Lucky dog, you. Ours are once a month unless we get together between meetings.
2014 C&D Sam’s Blend in a Wally Frank Bulldog 
Gregor Lobnik Smooth 1/4 Bent pipe with aged (2011 ) Esoterica Tobacciana Dunbar pipe tobacco
Really smells good and tasty!

Boswell's Northwoods this afternoon in a Boswell handmade pipe. It's a chilly, rainy day here in western PA, so Northwoods seemed a proper smoke. 
One of my favorite bulk VaPers, Erik Stokkebye 4th Gen Evening Flake in a Peterson Aran Smooth (124)
ODF in this newly restored 
1913 TCC (me neither) Dublin with orific horn stem. It still needs a little work done but it’s coming along nicely. Unfortunately someone cut notches just behind the button but it doesn’t effect the smoke.

C&D Pirate Kake in a 78 Dunhill grp3

Newminster Superior Navy Flake in Orlik De Luxe LX23 billiard.
He’s hanging in there, better than most at 93, thanks.
Some days at better then others, and he’s very thin. He’s threatened to have a cigar with me (he quit cigarettes and picked up a pipe mid-sixties before i was born, went from pipes, to pipes and cigars, then cigars exclusively somewhere in the early eighties).
My stepmom (they’ve been happily married 46+ yrs) shoots that notion down pretty quickly.
He thinks it’s great that I’m so geeked out on pipes since he gave me his last Thanksgiving, but he thinks just about anything I do since I got clean and sober in ‘95 is great!
Grateful I get to spend week with him, unfortunately I don’t know how any more opportunities to do so he has left.
Living the dream!
Enjoyed a tasty lunch, and am just finishing this bowl of year 2014 Sutliff 1849 in a medium bend smooth dark brown 1968 Barling 5631 London England TVF billiard silver spigot with a tapered black vulcanite stem. Also enjoyed one of my favorite Columbo episodes with Jack Cassidy as the murderous magician. Lavazza Classico, neat, is my drink on this windy, rainy day.
