What Did You Smoke Today? (Pipe Edition)

Part way through this bowl of Stonehaven in a straight sandblasted pre-transition Barling Exel 249 Fossil T.V.F. black billiard with a silver band and a black ebonite military bit. Watching the Red Sox-Royals game.

Having some Erinmore Flake in a MM cobbit acorn and watching the storm clouds roll into central Arkansas.

Unloaded and spread 9 tons of crushed concrete, by shovel. I've earned this one!
Pipeworks&Wilke #515 in my 3/4 bent Ol-Vic

Puffing F&T Blackjack in my venerable Kirsten Mariner. I don't know how I let this fine Virginia slip off my radar screen, but that's now corrected -- yesterday evening I ordered 5 more tins. I would've bought more, but that's all SmokingPipes had in stock.

Taking an easy start to a hard day.My Ol=Vic was sitting on my desk and the Captain Black
original jar is in reach.So that's my morning smoke.Late,more gravel to spread, I'm
REALLY looking forward to the weekend !

Friday,,Friday,,FRIDAY !!

Pulled out my Bruce Peterson straight apple pot and loaded some Watch City Deluxe Crumble Cake.

It is a mixture of fire cured burley and Virginias.
It comes in a rope, but it is a rather thin rope, not like the SG Brown No. 4.

It is strong in the nicotine department, but it is manageable. Nothing to be afraid of if you're an experienced smoker.
Wouldn't really recommend it to someone new to smoking.

I gave a little sample of black pigtail, which I think is the same thing as brown bogie, to a friend who was new to pipe smoking. He didn't like it, needless to say. Not a beginner's smoke. He said he looked to see if he forgot to peel off the plastic wrapper, LOL.

Just finishing my second bowl of Solani #656. First was in my Casillero straight billard with a saddle bit.
Second was in my DG Savoy, These two are basicly the same pipe ,but the Casillero is a bit bigger although
lighter.Now moving on to a bowl of CB original in my Tally Ho 3/4 bent egg shaped.

Puffing a fill of F&T Cut Virginia Plug from a just-opened tin with 1-1/2 years of age on it. Beautiful day here in San Diego -- Sunny and 72 degrees, light breeze.

So I pulled out my 1950's Monterey and had a bowl of LL Dark Red followed with Pipa's Whiskey
Cavendish.Right now I've a Brigham brandy pot loaded with Penzance and with respect for the wife
, will be heading to the porch with my pipe and coffee.If I'm not back again tonight, don't worry it's because
I'm in NIRVANA.
