Time methinks for another rather large cappuccino and ask Alexa to continue reading LOTRs The Two Towers. Whilst having a delicious bowl of Rangers Urban Cowboy in an Erik Nording Signature. I hope everyone is having an awesome day, and if your day has only just begun, I hope that is going to be an awesome day too 😊

Good morning,
Smoking a Big Ben bent author,PS french vanilla, mug of DD Hazelnut coffee. Its a beautiful morning here. The squirrels had a busy night digging up bulbs and flowers that were planted yesterday-it may be time to get out the co-2 pellet gun.

Squirrel stew makes a pretty good meal, lol.
 
Good morning you guys. As I said yesterday, today was Carter Hall in my very cheap cob pipe on my walk to work. I like CH slightly less than Prince Albert. It came noticeably dryer than the other codger blends it arrived alongside.
I was unable to get a good light.
The wind has been blowing at a rate of at least 8mph consistently since before last December here and it's starting to get on my nerves as I'm unable to smoke indoors and the wind is just atrocious for pipe smoking.
Tomorrow I will be trying Velvet.
My drink is some very fine green tea, my favorite.
 
Good morning my fellow BoBs. Sunny and blue skies here. A sweetness overload today. CS Figgy Pudding in a Don Carlos bent brandy with French Vanilla coffee. Going to be a busy day. I've taken on another volunteer role. There is an organization in Chino Valley called Bethanys Gait. They provide horse therapy for vets with PTSD and 1st responders. They have asked me to be a wrangler for them. We are matched with a vet or other client as a mentor. We teach them about horses, how to groom, tack and care for the horse assigned to them, then teach them riding skills. I like the idea of one client, one mentor, and one horse vs. a class of 4 or 5 which they do at Horses with Heart. I think it will be a rewarding experience. As a combat vet myself, I can relate to them and provide counseling as well as training. The goal is to prevent veterans suicide. Have a great day my friends.
 
The day is starting most auspiciously with a fine first tasting of this Mac Baren Burley London Blend in a Tinsky featherweight blasted straight billy. I haven't slapped a knee yet but it's close. Really really excellent. Dark cocoa with just the right hint of a roasty toasty pecan sweetness. Medium strength; flavor is light in body but leaning medium-full in taste. Excellent burn rate. A very high quality leaf that seems to have been carefully crafted. I am looking forward to getting to know this blend. First round with this is outstanding. Some jar and airtime will likely see things open up further. Jim Morrison is crooning the day into being with a little Riders on the Storm. Here's to the day.

Sounds like you need a Zippo pipe lighter Gaius

WTG Ranger my friend. Your a legend.
 
Just got back from walking Jacksie. I loaded the last of my Arango Balkan Supreme/Sutliff Rum & Maple mixture in the BBB 204 "Dog-Lunter." Now heading out to run some errands.
Would you give us/me a little idea of what this mixture tastes like??? I'm having a hard time getting my head around a combination of ABS and Rum & Maple!! Thanks, FTRPLT
 
Following all of last night's weather theatrics (monster high winds, rain, T-storms, and the occasional tornado!!), this morning is gorgeous!! 2008 Margate in a Sullivan & Powell flame-grain billiard (DH 127, LBS, LB sized). Followed by 2008 And So To Bed in my Ian Walker Northern Briars Premier Roxcut 5 (circled) handmade in 18. I think that's 1998, but perhaps 2008. I've forgotten the base year for Ian's dating!! Really strong Cafe du Monde/French Roast mix coffee to keep me awake!! FTRPLT

Got one, my friend. It is exceptionally windy here. So windy that even my pipe insert doesn't stand a snowballs chance of staying lit on most days.
It's the price I pay for the beauty of the forests, lakes, junipers, peaks, and badlands here. It'll calm down come summer I hope.

A quarter of the way through this bowl of pre-2014 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. Watching Mad Dog Russo.
