It was beautiful here today, but I was feeling bad spent most of the day in bed.

She doesn’t listen! She sounds stubborn and stoic like my wife, Brad. What can you do? Just stay close and step in when they try to do too much, too early. Hang in there.

It was beautiful here today, but I was feeling bad spent most of the day in bed. It's my turn to do the same today. The ache and pain index is high and I'm going to lie down again. Tomorrow will be a better day.

Tomorrow will be a better day. Nothing wrong with a day or two of rest. I need more and more of those. Hope you feel better, Russ.

Heading out to roto-till a small bed and set out some garlic. Then my rock tumbler loads need switching out. Smoking some HH Simply Red in a Grabow Viking while doing it. I will be sore in the morning. Always am after tilling.

Got the antlers off the buck and sled-dragged the carcass and the processing remains out to a pasture for the critters. The crows are always the first to find the remains. By the time the coyotes get wind of it and arrive the crows have pretty much had their fill.

I always heard growing up, "Don't leave anything. It's a waste." Kind of an example of guys who thought they were in touch with nature being totally out of touch. Nature doesn't waste anything. It all goes back in the system.

Maybe some Greek yogurt with steel cut oats and berries, or peaches ...but bacon and eggs sounds very good too!

Well, I confirmed that the culprit in turning my tongue brown is not the pipe, but the rooibos tea. I wouldn't be thrilled about giving either one up, but at least I don't have a significant investment in rooibos leaves and teacups.

Soggy day around here. It's been raining all day. Expecting about 1.5" in total.

Rain here. Overcast. Mid 40s. Par for season but no less mizzable.

Cold and windy in Vegas, so no pipe. There is a mom and pop casino next door to the Best Western, don’t feel like sitting in a bar though.

Sixty years today. I was 13. Still haven't gotten over it. I think about what the veterans must feel after what they've been through.

Broken pipe. Last Saturday, I learned that John Beeler, one of my friends and a fellow Michigan pipe smoker, was in hospice and then yesterday evening I learned that he had passed. 😢 I last saw him in person at the Columbus Show in August and he seemed fine. Then in October, he found out that he had pancreatic cancer which had already spread to his liver. Although none of you, expect for possibly Zach, knew him, I ask you to smoke a bowl in Beeler's memory this Saturday on what would have been his 60th birthday.
Zach- If you don’t know the name, you’d recognize him from Chicago and Columbus Shows: the guy with a bushy white beard who would wear a dashiki with bib overalls, or a smoking jacket and hat, or a Santa hat and coat.
