Three quarters of the fun of smoking pipes is the pipes, the next three quarters is collecting and trying different tobacco and the last three quarters is the company. I'm about to go enjoy this new Randy Wiley with some Lord Nelson and flash a picture of it to my ether pipe buddies.

After a day of chores and errands I'm about to load up this Randy Wiley Patina Poker with Nutty Irishman. Tastes are fickle little things. I didn't like Bulldogs and now I love them. Same with Pokers. Now I see ones I adore all the time. I'll I probably need counseling as I move through the shapes.

Both of the little ones are Brebbia Go-Go pipes. That must have been a marketing ploy with the name. I got a nice little plaid cloth sack and box with each one.

I didn't have any Brebbia pipes yet and found this sweet little 50s one with a tool that includes a bottle opener. Then I saw these little min pocket pipes and although I have no use for them whatsoever I bought them both. I'll be putting my nose in mortal danger lighting them. Some day I'll...

About to have a bowl of Wilshire in a 50s Brebbia. It came with a cool little tool with a bottle opener. Never seen one like that. Whoever had it was a man or woman after my own heart.

Love the grain.

I'm finishing up this bowl of monthly mix. I save all of the scraps from filling bowls into a mason jar. Quite tasty this time. The pipe is a Cadet 105 and what looks like a B. Smokes very nice. I feel like Fred MacMurry when I smoke it. I've had enough working in the rain and it's time to binge...

I have looked at that pipe many times. Can't seem to pull the trigger. Does 'not horrible' mean you'd buy it again if you broke it?

Nope. Ruined the smoke amd burned kind of hot. Dumped it and I'll try my normal way that has always worked so far. You never know until you try. Going to pull out a new pipe and go again. I m watching Airbender on Netflix and can't waste the smoking opportunity.

Just got this no named poker today. I'm going to load up some MacBaren Vanilla Roll cake and give it a go. I watched a video where the whole disks are loaded then one broken up on top to light it. I'm going to give that a try instead of breaking it all up.

Running inside and filling my cob with Lord Nelson for my last push of work before dark sets in.

I think I need a couple of those.🧐

I used my compressor to clean out a drain pipe last week. Tried other ways but no joy. I put in the hose, used a garbage bag to seal it and voila out shot leaves and pinecones.

I thought I was being dumb putting my finger over the vent😂. Not a fan so far.

I have one I restored. It smokes different than my other pipes. Like it self regulates the amount of smoke on your draw. Still nice but takes getting used to. The little vents haunt me. Maybe I buggered something up when I restored it. I have a couple more to restore and that may a better...

I just sliced up a dozen 80' trees they left on the ground when they logged my property into 12' pieces I can grab with the excavator. I hold them one at a time over the dump truck bed and cut the rounds right into the bed. No heavy lifting of rounds anymore. Alas they don't split or stack...

This morning I'm starting off with Bayou Morning in my trusty new MM cob. Raining, but work to get done. Everyone is fed but me. Oh well. I'm going to cut a couple of cords of firewood today for the new woodstove.

Those are Marans either French Copper or Cookoo. Usually the French Coppers lay darker brown ones. I have blue, green and wine colored eggs too. As well as white and tan. I'm breeding for really striking colors to make my eggs different at the market.

My room smells amazing. I'm jarring up my half of the monthly order I do with a friend. Lots of new blends to try. I'm watching Ballerina on Netflix (One of the best opening fight scenes ever. A can of pineapple is the highlight) Going to smoke one of them now. Bayou Night in this Harden Court...

After a hectic day I've got my brother off for the weekend on a date. I'm going to to smoke this Vanilla Custard in a Seville Burgandy Lucite I just picked up. I feel like a dessert smoke because I have to wash eggs. Lots of eggs. My ducks decided they didn't want to lay in their house. They...
