Happy Birthday! Sounds like a fine time.Birthday evening smoke after a great dinner with family at an Irish Pub. Some 6 year old Irish Flake in a Benjamin Barling that was an early birthday gift to myself a while back

After the honey-dos this afternoon, had a bowl of the Country Squire’s Secret #55-1 in a Chicago era Dr. Grabow Tru-Grain bulldog. Super relaxing and the weather was perfect.
The pipe is new to me and didn’t seem to draw well. I take the stinger out of my other Grabows but this one is fixed. Don’t want to cut it so it may just go on the auction block. I think it’s pretty but didn’t do it for me.

Rush? Try Cornell and Diehl Burley Flake #1.@samuelgawith01
Nice clay; I think it looks like a Jamestowne pipe.
I have a replica 17th century English Civil War clay. The Rustica is the only pipeweed the Clay King has ever got a baccy rush from
Gawith and Hogarth Dark Bird's Eye shag in this dark clay. 
I used to build longboards and did the same thing with my boys. My sons and my two older daughters used to go to my church’s big empty parking lot and skate for hours. Been about a year since I’ve ridden; got into rat rod bicycles instead.Sorry to hear about the nasty spill you took. But hearing you skate with your son reminded me of when I used to skate with my boy. I would stand him up on the front of my longboard, hold his hands up and cruise around the neighborhood. Those were great times.
I'm glad to hear you're still out there cruising around. I'm fairly certain i still have a board laying around at my parents house. I may have to have a go around the neighborhood

Relaxing after a wonderful salad, chicken legs and green beans dinner with strawberries for dessert. I'm smoking first production Seattle Pipe Club Hogshead in a well appreciated medium bend, smooth brown 1950s Peterson 999 Dublin chubby Rhodesian with a tapered black vulcanite p-lip stem. The Astros are smoking the Atlanta Braves. I doubt they're drinking Community Coffee, neat, though.

Keeping it simple with 50/50 my red VaPer and Haunted Bookshop Cake in the Dread Pirate Coberts.
Edisto in this L’Anatra. Earl Grey.
KBV Dungeon Meister in a Dunhill Shell Briar Billiard
2018 Salty Dogs in my Suhr oval shank billiard.
Now smoking year 2020 D&R VIP in a 2004 smooth long shank Trever Talbot Ligne Bretagne Faite en Bretagne 4/3 lumberman with a tapered black vulcanite stem. Gave Molly Danger some play time.
That whittled tamper is fantastic!
Totally jealous, that’s awesome!
Enjoyed a tasty golden delicious apple, and am a quarter of the way through this bowl of year 2014 Esoterica Tilbury in a straight smooth Danish gold straight grain undated W.O. Larsen Hand Made in Denmark dublin with a tapered black vulcanite stem. This pipe is from the estate of David Cuneo. Watching the Orioles-Jays game.
FVF (jarred since'13) in a MM Diplomat 5th Ave.
Looking at the "bloom" on the FVF, I'm thinking of a comment made in a long ago Western by some grizzled old timer: "Ain't dat purty?"
I love this cob!
