Lovely pipe! Who made it? Is it a reverse Calabash? The "chocolate mint" worry beads are attractive, too.Salute from Athens-Greece, we have sun and 85 'F.
DTM Vanilla.

Mark Twain, in the Cobbler, with Ovaltine Breakfast Blend. This poor pipe is beginning to flake along the weakened section below the visible defect at the rim, it may not be long for this world, not leaking smoke or losing draft yet, though. Until it does, it will remain in service; it is a favourite of mine .
Spectacular morning here in the Ozarks. Lots have been newly mown, a little slice of heaven. Having Starbucks DR k-cup black. Have PA in a Savinelli 616.[

Happy Sunday morning to my BoB friends. Beautiful day here on the mountain. Enjoying the peace and quiet with Hobbits Weed in the Calabresi bent brandy with CR morning coffee. Played fetch with Charlie and now listening to the rhythmic trickling of the waterfall we had built into our berm. Have a great day everyone.

All this talk about codger blends and cobs got me thinking so it's CH in a MM general cob for my 2nd bowl. 3rd mug of coffee. Wind and sun made the back patio a bit so moved to the front patio. Still windy but in the shade. So, life is still good, lol.

Back patio uncomfortable. Damn phone, lol.
Good morning, fellow pipesters. This morning is cool, dead calm, quiet. A day of yard work looms. Got a well aged bowl of Beacon working in a fetching Poul Winslow rusticated paneled poker. Cuppa mud on the side. A choice selection of chill tunes softly plays to usher in the day and to ward off the existential angst. I sense a simple but epic First Breaky just around the corner. Locally made German sausage, eggs, and toast - uncomplicated and delicious fresh faire for sustenance/survival sure, but mainly it's to give one the opportunity for that delightful shoe wheat post-meal sit down Sunday pipe sesh. So yeah that's the score. So it goes.

Passing the half way mark of this bowl of pre-2014 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. It's almost time for the Braves-A's game. Ice water and bergs is my drink.

A neighbor brought over a package that UPS delivered to 19 instead of 22. They missed the number on the mailbox they walked by to deliver it! I loaded up a Rob Roy with GLP Westminster and we enjoyed the rest of the morning chatting. Three pounds of tobacco and an MM 5th Ave. Diplomat found their proper home, the pipe was supposed to be an Apple but the 5th Ave. is a keeper.
Now watching the IndyCar Detroit Grand Prix with MB HH Pure Virginia in an MM Let Freedom Ring Rob Roy.

Enjoyed a tasty lunch, and am a quarter of the way through this bowl of year 2020 Watch City Rouxgaroux in a smooth medium bend 2021 Peterson POTY Natural 4AB No. 6/500 military mount with a silver cap and a tapered black vulcanite AB stem. Gold Star 50th, Neat, is my drink.

We had some new friends from church over for lunch. My wife is a native of New Mexico and she prepared a couple of dishes in the New Mexican style, using Hatch Chile (if you haven't been, they are mighty particular about their chile). It was both delicious and plentiful. Okay, we pigged out. I'm now relaxing on the patio with a Hardcastle's Crown bent billiard with saddle stem filled with Sutliff Rum & Maple, and drinking iced hibiscus tea. Sir Barksalot of Yorkshire is seated beside me.
I'm now enjoying Straus Private Stock Aromatic in a Barling Sovereign bent acorn with saddle stem. I'm drinking Coke Zero. Sir Barksalot of Yorkshire has abandoned me, evidently preferring the company of the missus.

Close to finishing this bowl of Watch City SEPC McClouxgaroux 2023 in a 1920s-30s Grant’s Pipe Shop Corinthian Deluxe 409 (made by Comoy’s) smooth brown medium bend bulldog with a tapered black vulcanite stem. Ice water and bergs is my drink.
The sun is fading slowly to the west. Perfect weather today. On the front porch. Just loaded a MM country gent with PA.

Passing the half way mark of this bowl of Uhle’s Blend 71 in a 2018 smooth full bend Peterson Premiere 312 billiard with a silver cap military mount and a black vulcanite saddle stem with a p-lip. This will finish my open stash of it. Watching Big Leaguer starring Edward G. Robinson. He must have hated making this turkey of a movie.

A couple pipefuls of good ol' Carter Hall in this Pete Sherlock Holmes today; beautiful morning to be out tossing some flies in pan fish heaven; cool, slight breeze, little overcast. A sweet Winston WT 8' 4wt and the bluegills were bitin'...
Home from birthday lunch with my mom, brother and his family. Stuffed to discomfort. Downpour the whole way home, the course will be afloat tomorrow, possibly closed for damage control - fine by me, I prefer to work without golfers in the way. SO GLAD I CLEANED MY GUTTERS YESTERDAY!!! Having Casanova in my Bones Dublin.
