Relaxing after a wonderful salad, chicken legs and green beans dinner with strawberries for dessert. I've about a third of a bowl left of year 2013 Full Virginia Flake in a straight 1968 Dunhill Shell bulldog with a black vulcanite saddle stem. Community Coffee, neat, is my drink. Watching a documentary on Louis Armstrong.

Relaxing after a wonderful dinner of Arby's rueben sandwiches, fries, and no dessert with more of Balisongs gifted GH Balkan Mixture in a Brebbia Perfecta dublin. Tawny port aside. Life is good except I'm in the garage. Just too damn cold out and I didn't want to sit under the heater feeling like a chicken roasting at Costco. Lol.
 
Not far from finishing this bowl of first release Watch City Rouxgaroux in a smooth natural medium bend 2021 Peterson POTY 4AB No. 6/500 military mount with a silver cap and a vulcanite black tapered AB stem.

EZ, hope the PT helps your back. I know what it's like to have back pain issues. I used to take Tramadol if I had a 4 hour or more duty with the Rangers. Standing on my feet for that long was literally a PITA.
FYI, on the CS blends. I did try the Parsons blend. Not that impressed. Pretty bland. Second breakfast is better. You might also try Cowboy Coffee. Kind of like CH but higher quality.
 
If I were on the ocean, I believe what they call today would be the doldrums. Dead calm. After high winds, it's good outdoor smoking weather. A brisk 20°, but nice humidity, so it didn't feel the least bit cold. I'm more in the mood to celebrate this than...well, you know. So, 5-year old McClelland #2035 (Dark Navy Flake) in one of them Italian wood things carved to look like shedding antler. I don't smoke 2035 often. A leathery tobacco that would make one assume it would smoke wet. It doesn't. Smokes clean and dry.
 
Just finished smoking this bowl from a first production tin (2013) of 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.

Did a set of walking reps, spent some time checking on a neighbor who's going through a tough time, and I'm nearly finished smoking Sutliff Dunhill Elizabethan Match in a straight smooth brown 1960s-70s BBB Own Make 506 Canadian with a sterling silver band and a tapered black vulcanite stem. Pay attention to those who need a friend this holiday season. For them, it's hard to celebrate when life hands them strife and loneliness.

Relaxing after a wonderful salad, striped bass and sugar snap peas dinner with a slice of pecan pie for dessert. I'm close to finishing this bowl of Ken Byron Ventures Mr. Christian’s Knack Mixture in a 2003 URAL full bend big bowl egg shaped Lattice meer with a black acrylic saddle stem. Community Coffee, neat, is my drink.

Charatan Special handmade, ever-so-slightly bent billiard with 4-year old Night Train. When I got this pipe, the rim was slightly smoke stained, yet the bottom of the bowl was still new and without any darkening or cake or anything. Weird. As if the person lit the tobacco, knocked it out, and repeated it a few times. If you'd seen a photo of just the rim, you'd think this was a smoked pipe, but if you'd looked at the bottom 3/4 of the chamber, you'd think it was an unsmoked pipe. I still can't figure out why it was like that.
