Work is done for the day, and I'm smoking Wilke #515 in a 1998 smooth straight Butz-Choquin Bistro 1501 pot with a black vulcanite stem. Watching a Hopalong Cassidy movie. This one has Robert Mitchum, Victor Jory, and George (Superman) Reeves.

Couldn't sleep, so I'm having a bowl of Angler's Dream in a slight bend 1984 Stanwell Antique 124 grain etched with a smooth front with a black vulcanite stem. Simply Orange is my drink.

Now smoking, what else of a morning, HH ODF in my cuspidor stack. 8 grams per bowl of smoking goodness.

Finally, finally back home! Smoked a few bowls of various blends while out, but am home now and almost done with this bowl of MacBaren Golden Extra in a 1983 medium bend, mostly smooth, bottom rusticated Butz-Choquin Maitre Pipier 3 Fait Main with pearl brown acrylic stem. Ice water and bergs is my evening drink.

Smoking another hausegemacht mix. GH Kendal Dark mixed with perique and pressed for 4 days. Not bad, better than the latakia mix by a nose. Smoking in my Pibe Dan cabbaged Reform.

Now smoking Wilke #515 in a 1998 smooth straight Butz-Choquin Bistro 1501 pot with a black vulcanite stem. Watching the Reds-Pirates game.

Now smoking D&R Windsail Silver in a 1982 smooth straight Sasieni Ivory 105 Apple with a black vulcanite stem. This will get to dinner time on this very humid day.

Smoking C&D Founding Father's in a GBD bulldog. Earlier today I had my first smoke in 4 days. I was away at my granddaughter's high school graduation. Several days of parties, dinners, brunches, the graduation ceremony, and more parties, wore me out. Monday I managed to go to Churchill's tobacco shop and purchased 15 tins of out of stock Sutliff tobaccos for $5.00 each tin! I had just enough cash to buy it and also fill up my tank! I made it home yesterday and had to cut grass! Boy was I tired last night!

Relaxing after a wonderful shrimp and potatoes dinner with a big banana split for dessert. Now smoking HU Old Fredder’s Broken Flake in a smooth straight early 1960s 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. Getting ready to clean a few pipes.
