I'm trying VaSlices in my new LePeltier, it's wonderful. I'll stop gushing about this pipe now.

Rain is back but that's okay. That couple of nice days pulled me up.
Smoking MM Thing I with C&D Engine #661 as I admire my 200 new blueberry starts blocked and ready to root.
I sprouted about 400 white oak acorns and started on those too. 100 or so potted so far in these fancy air pruning tree pots. Hundreds more to go.

Earlier, I smoked a bowl of year 2019 C&D Derringer in a smooth dark brown medium bend pre-WWII Inderwick’s (Comoy’s) Carnaby Street 37 stack dublin with a black vulcanite saddle stem.

I followed that up with a bowl of year 2013 Capstan Blue Ready Rubbed in a straight smooth brown 1933-1945 Comoy’s patent Grand Slam 127 billiard with a tapered black vulcanite stem.

And I smoked this bowl of year 2013 Capstan Gold in a post-WWII Bertram 60 straight smooth dark brown squat bulldog with a black vulcanite saddle stem.

Now smoking year 2012 St. James Flake in a straight 1968 Dunhill Tanshell octagonal paneled EK F/T billiard with a square shank and tapered black vulcanite stem. Going to clean a few pipes after a very busy afternoon. Daisy the Feral Princess has been a litle active this past hour. She's been walking around the den looking for attention. She's seems happy. We are still giving her meds.

Relaxing after a wonderful salad, chicken legs and snow peas dinner with strawberries for dessert. I've passed the first third of this bowl of year 2014 Full Virginia Flake in a straight 1968 Dunhill Shell bulldog with a black vulcanite saddle stem. Community Coffee, neat, is my drink. Trying to type this post with Tomato the Brave half by my side, and half on my waist.

Here's the Sonic the Hedgehog and Tommy Two Tails commission I was working on. The woman who commissioned the piece is going to ask her beau to marry her, and so Sonic is holding a big ring for extra inducement. :) Tails is the fella's other favorite Sonic character. Hope her man says "Yes."

Hi Ralph, I do feel bad complaining when I see the women with breast cancer at the oncology center. Those poor ladies go through hell. We have several friends and acquaintances that have gone through it. One, a friend of my wife's developed severe dementia. She just passed away a week ago. I can empathize as I am going through some of the same issues. Can't eat, can't swallow, living on protein drinks. Lost 65 lbs. 225 down to 160. By any chance would you know the name of the patch they gave your wife. I'll try anything that will help. I get up 4/5 times a night to clear my throat. Thanks for the message.
I honestly can't remember the name of them, but they lasted three days, and without insurance they were $2,000 for a box of 2! Our insurance only paid for three boxes every month. Ask your oncologist about trandermal patches that stop nausea. I'm 100% sure they will know. Her oncologist said they are a popular medication but most insurance companies want you to try the steroid pills first. I'll look in the hallway closet later today and see if I can find an empty box so I can give you the name. Do you have an email Ranger? That way I can give you information on a personal level. I have our English buddy on "what's up"
 
A quarter of the way through this bowl of year 2024 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.

Earlier, I did a set of walking reps, and smoked a bowl of year 2016 D&R Three Sails in a slight bent black pattern etched 1977 Lorenzo Lorsan Sigma level top billiard with a gray swirl acrylic saddle stem.

Then, I enjoyed a tasty lunch, and am half 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. A cup of hot tea, neat, is my drink. All the ferals showed up to eat this afternoon. I saw Abner the Eager laying on a chair in the sun, and he was happy to see me. I brought him in to eat, but he wasn't hungry. I never saw that from him before. I guess he ate at wherever else he goes before he came here. He walked out of the kitchen, and hid behind the sofa for a snooze. Daisy the Feral Princess is off her meds now, and she seems a little lethargic today. She did eat a normal portion of wet food, and has been snoozin' by my feet since then. Tomato the Brave ate well, and then wanted out to play in the sunshine. He followed me for the length of three houses on my last lap. I gave the li'l fella a good head scratch, and he was happy. Harry the Hairy is sunning himself on the deck. He's been quiet today.
