Now smoking year 2001 Dunhill Navy Rolls in a straight 1968 Dunhill Shell bulldog with a black vulcanite stem.

"Happy" Brown Bogie in a Kaywoodie Super Grain billiard.

A quarter of the way through this bowl of Ken Byron Ventures Bas Matica in a 2002 smooth matte finish Karl Erik rough top freehand with a black acrylic tapered stem. Have enough for one more bowl.

A third of the way through the last of my stash of Wilke #44 in a smooth medium bend post-WW2 Pre-Republic Peterson Shamrock Killarney 9BC with a sterling silver band and a black vulcanite p-lip stem. Cold and rainy outside.

Pegasus in a Don Warren freehand sitter with a plateau rim and butterscotch acrylic stem.

Now smoking the last of my stash of Pebble Castle in a 1986 full bend pebble relief Aldo Velani Titan 33 briar Oom Paul/Calabash with a black acrylic tapered stem that has a briar accent. Phone chatting about tobacco.

D&R Two Timer in a sandblasted Urbino bent apple with an acrylic stem.

Sam’s Awesome Burley Mix in a late 1960’s Stanwell acorn.

Couldn't sleep, so I'm having a bowl of Watch City Viral Vanilla in a 1979 no name French briar smooth full bend egg with a black vulcanite stem. Can't waste time you know!

H&H Rolando’s Own in a Savinelli Oscar prince.

Close to finishing this bowl 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. Then, I'll try to sleep again.

So far today, Cairo, WC Deluxe Crumb Cut, and now Haunted Bookshop. All in the little rusticated pot.

I just opened a jar of a Cramps recipe I mixed last year. It’s a combination of Sutliff 515, C&D Yorktown, some blending Turkish and McClelland blending perique. I’m smoking said tobacco in a Savinelli Chiara prince with an acrylic stem.

Not far from finishing this bowl of HU Directors Cut in a smooth straight Lane era Charatan Executive Extra Large stretch apple with diagonal channel cuts on the lower right and left of the bowl along with a black vulcanite double comfort stem. This pipe was formerly owned by actor William Conrad.

Had some Carter Hall in the little rusticated pot.

Now smoking Ken Byron Ventures First Virginia in a 1980s White Pipe straight, smooth octagonal paneled billiard meerschaum with an acrylic yellow cream colored saddle stem.

Now smoking Ken Byron Ventures First Light in a 1980s SMS eagle claw egg medium bend meerschaum signed by J. Boglon with a brown and cream swirl acrylic stem. Cold and rainy outside.

A bowl of this not-very-good Golden Days of Yore, in a shop poker. Anyone want a 50g tin that's only had two bowls out if it? I, personally, find it disagreeable.

Half way through this bowl of Ken Byron Ventures Artifact in a 1980 smooth medium brown full bend D’Argento calabash with a removable flared bowl inside a bowl with cork edges and a black and dark gold acrylic tapered stem. Haven't smoked this pipe in years.

Now smoking Sutliff Prince Albert Match in a 1980s straight smooth Big Ben pot with a nickel band and a black vulcanite saddle stem. This might get me to dinner time.

Watching Nature on PBS.
