I've been very busy (a lot lately), and haven't had the chance to post my earlier smokes. I'm off to work with a bowl of 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. Community Coffee, neat, is my drink.

Part way through this bowl of Wilke Surbrug’s Crystal Palace in a dark brown smooth straight post-WW2 LHS Certified Purex 79 bulldog with a nickel ferrule and tenon with a black vulcanite saddle stem. Ice water and bergs is my drink.

A third of the way through this bowl of Wilke Surbrug’s Crystal Palace in a dark brown smooth straight post-WW2 LHS Certified Purex 79 bulldog with a nickel ferrule and tenon with a black vulcanite saddle stem. I messed up my last post because I was smoking Watch City Blue Ridge. That particular LHS bulldog is dedicated to that blend. Crystal Palace is dedicated to the pipe you are seeing.

Almost half way through this bowl of 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. This'll do it for me today.

Instead of putting up an electric fence try taking in the feeders at night.
That's an idea but would be a lot of trouble. Take them in at night, put them back out next morning. Also, don't really have a good place to put them overnight. If I put them in the garage they attract mice. I ordered an outdoor storage shed for garden tools, maybe when I get that I can use it.
 
Morning guys. Didn't say good morning because it really isn't for me. Didn't sleep much last night so still tired. Somehow managed to strain my back at the ranch yesterday and pain in my shoulder pretty much kept me awake most of the night. Smoking Tumbleweed in a Don Carlos bent brandy with morning CR coffee. Hope everyone else has a good day.
 
A quarter of a bowl left 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.

Enjoyed a tasty lunch, and am a quarter of the way through this bowl of Sutliff Pipe Force Episode VI in a medium bend fumed tan crackled year 2020 Ahmet Govem reverse calabash meerschaum with a military mount silver band and black acrylic stem. Working on a review of this blend which goes on sale later this month.

Passing the quarter mark of this bowl of 2021 Watch City Simply Orange Virginia in a black sandblast medium bend 2021 Peterson POTY 4AB No. 182/500 military mount with a silver cap and a tapered black vulcanite AB stem. Gold Star Panama Esmeralda Geisha, neat, is my drink. My weekly pipe zoom starts at the top of the hour.

Close to finishing this bowl of year 2020 Sam Gawith Best Brown Flake in a straight smooth brown 1933-1945 Comoy’s patent Grand Slam 159 *4 apple with a tapered black vulcanite stem. Spent a lot of time stopping Tomato the Brave and some extent, Daisy the Feral Princess from bullying Abner the Eager and Sam the Scamp. As Tomato has become more emotionally tight with me, that attitude has made him more of a bully to the other cats, even to Daisy who he grew up with.

Pre dinner smoke of Arango Balkan Supreme in a Pete Rosslare smooth bent apple. Had a pretty good day once I got to moving around. Took it easy most of the day. Played around with the new, to me, Harley for awhile, which I brought home yesterday. A 2008 Road King Screaming Eagle CVO. Only has 5400 miles on it and looks brand new. Rides and handles like a dream. Wonder if I will put 160K on this one like I did my 98 Road King. Probably not, lol.

Relaxing after a wonderful salad, wild caught catfish and snow peas dinner with strawberries for dessert. I'm not far from the half way mark of this bowl of 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. Community Coffee, neat, is my drink.
