Passing the quarter mark on this bowl of C&D Virginia Gentleman in a straight smooth dark brown pre-1940s Comoy’s Jost’s Olde English Supreme J299 Canadian with a tapered black vulcanite stem. Ice water and bergs is my drink.

Now smoking Wilke No. 515 Double Shot in a smooth dark medium bend 2021 Peterson Heritage Brown POTY 4AB No. 45/500 military mount with a silver cap and a tapered black vulcanite AB stem. This is No. 515 with twice the rum of the Basil Rathbone blend. I may end the day with this smoke.

Smoking a Pete Strand with Sutliff rum/maple and a mug of CR coffee. I just got an e-mail from USPS that my e-bay Custombilt will arrive today! I didn`t realize that the seller lives a hour away from me. I just hope that the pipe does not need major work,but it`s a possibility,knowing it`s probably 75 years old.
It`s going to be a hot one today,it`s already 80 degrees at 8;30 am.
 
PS Luxury Navy Flake in a Savinelli 815KS Oscar Aged Briar-my flake pipe. Tried something different and pulled undried but slightky sticky flakes apart into 1/8 srips, then stacked them and folded stuffed and twisted them into the bowl. It seemed to burn better with fewer relights, but will still smoulder.
 
Good morning BoBs. McBaren Burley Flake in a Calabresi bent brandy with morning CR coffee. 92 for a high today but 20% chance of rain all day. Which might not be bad if it cools things off. Going to be at the ranch most of the day adding standoffs for new electric fencing on Teddy's stall to keep the horse in the next stall at bay. He's a biter. Sticks his head through the rails and nips at Teddy who is just trying to be friends. Have a great day my friends.
 
Almost a third of the way through this bowl of 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. Ice water and bergs is my drink. Watching Mad Dog Russo.

Now smoking Erik Stokkebye 4th Generation: Max Erik’s Blend 1989 in a medium bend 2001 Ural lattice Rhodesian with a yellow with white swirls acrylic saddle stem. Trying to ID to toppings. Plum is one of them.

I had a productive morning, I am going to relax with a k-cup and a Vauen bent pot filled with Stanwell vanilla. I got the old Custombilt pipe,Surprisingly, it`s in pretty good shape and was a STEAL for 40 bucks! I was looking at one on e-bay, same pipe-starting bid was 150 and the bidding is still going on.... Later ,I will put it in a salt/alcohol and sanitize the mouthpiece.
 
John Patton Dark Horse gifted by @Haebar (in the mood for some cigar taste) in a Savinelli Trevi 320EX. This is an interesting blend. Sourcing some JP Oriental Dusk (sounds like this has more cigar leaf than other JP blends), GLP Triple Play and Cowboy Coffee ingredients using @Ranger107 recipe. BTW, 4noggins has 10% off storewide using Santa10 for the discount.
My Linkman made Olde London pipe arrived today and is in amazing condition for a 1930's briar pipe. I should smoke Sutliff Edgeworth Ready Rubbed for it's "maiden" smoke.
